I think it’s funny that people are saying it’s great to know that lameriello is at least trying to get players. That’s setting the bar real low

Probably because most of us think he is dead

We have to be a little nervous about this. KADRI isn’t your #1 center.
What’s the final cost going to be $7 to 7.5m for 3 years or $6 to 6.5 for 5 years?
I’m not saying he brings game.


John Tonelli for HOF

When I say scared, I'm talking about the contract. I love the player and he is a perfect fit for the style the Isles play. He is going to help this club big time if they get him. He doesn't have to put up huge offensive numbers. He does everything well. Like I said just nervous about that contract if the rumors are true and that's a big If

I just checked in with NYIslanders GM Lou Lameriello and he is still breathing.

You just cannot beat fantasy hockey knowledge on your resume.

Well let's face it, previous mgmt treated the bar like a limbo dance

It's really not a knock on Kadri or most of these players but these 7 year contract are scary. Even for Lee. Sorry Schwein.

I'd still would love to know what was said during the JG's talks? We have Barzal, Sorokin, and a very solid defense and a great new building and practice facility and you will be close to family. Still no idea how Columbus pulled this off when players wanted to leave them in the past?

They got rid of Tortorella.

This had to have helped. Still very bizarre Isles missed out to Columbus on this one.

Violins and cellos man.

I will say this if they do indeed sign Kadri and then you add in Romanov (baby Kasparaitis) they are going to piss off a lot of teams with their style of play We might need to bring back Chara along with the Boss and Martin to keep as Barry would say 'The flies away from them"

I have to think with Martin and certainly Ross the Isles will be fine. I'm more concerned if the offense is good enough to get to the finals.

I'm happy to have Z back as 7th dman. Isles have had trouble in the past with overplaying vets though.

I honestly wouldn't be opposed to it. We just can't have him AND Green on the same roster. Z on his own in a limited role is fine by me

Pagnotta from the 4th period

#Isles fans, multiple transactions are looking close. In addition to all the Nazem Kadri chatter, which I believe is valid, some internal house cleaning is also being taken care of. When will all the dominoes fall? That’s up to you-know-who.

My prediction is you’ll get exactly what you want and regret ever wanting it to begin with soon after the season starts

1st mistake Romanov makes Z is in the lineup for good.
