I doubt lambert will have them waiting for you in your bed in thongs but who knows? We don’t know what kind of system he’ll implement. It may be a very gay one.

I did hear from a reliable source that he keeps referring to breakouts as "breaking out of the closet"

I realize it's only the first pre-season game, but sheesh, that was pretty rough last night. A continuation of last season, as far as I can tell. I'll give it time, but that was not good...

Preseason. Take it with a grain of salt.

Where’s RATY? Both teams last night used the expensive players?

Half the team isn't playing and it's the first game of preseason. The amount of people crying on Isles social media was even worse than normal last night.

Don’t get me wrong I think we all want to see them play well even in preseason. I also expect Islander fans to blow up on social media after last season and us not really doing anything in the off-season. Everyone wants to be the one to say I told you so. That’s the day and age we live in. Sometimes on this very thread. I’ll pass judgement in November if we’re in the same spot as last season.

I agree. When the lineup is whole on opening night and then we've seen what this team actually will be under lambert, THEN we can all female dog and moan if they suck.

I remember all the many years of Oiler teams that dominated the preseason, only to completely poop the bed once the regular season started.

Due to this I now find preseason losses almost comforting.

But we can still trash Bailey during the preseason, yes?

Offseason, preseason, regular season, post(hoping)season.

I recall one season where we were undefeated in preseason and then went on to face plant during the regular season.

Bailey will lead all islanders players in points this season and will be traded at the deadline when we’re out of it.

Winning in the preseason is irrevocably associated with bad luck in my mind.

An irrational association to be sure, but one I cannot shake nonetheless.

No Islander is gonna score more than 11-24-35 before the deadline?!?

Split squad b/c of game tonight too against the Devils. I did not see much of the game but from what I can gather the coach thought Holmstrom played well and so did Salo.... and it looks like Romanov will be a fan favorite very soon if he stays healthy.

https://twitter.com/Isles...&t=mkstgTOUeCEgD-IRyRXw6Q I love that Trouba of all people didn't like it.. lol.

I miss the days where Pre-season was when all the goons would fight to earn that one spot.

Look at the bright side. We’ll be able to lock up Barzal long term on the cheap.
