Josh Bailey in today for #Isles    per Lambert. Not disclosing who comes out.

Fine if Koivula comes out. Maybe Ross. Anyone else is a mistake. That said, Martin has been better on the top line

Good period for the isles. Pleasantly surprised with that. Friedman reporting Trotz is going to take over as Preds GM with Poile stepping down and retiring.

It sounds official, congratulations to Trotz!! Islanders should have replaced LOU with Trotz.



John Tonelli for HOF

We'll see how he does in that role. When Lou let Trotz go, it seemed very plausible that there was more to the story. Trotz had taken multiple games off after his mother's passing and his contract was going to expire after the following year. I remmeber more than once hearing his final season was very difficult in a persinal level. I think it is reasonable to say that Barry's refusal to commit to the Isles beyond this year forced Lou's hand.

Good luck to him.

Well, at least Bailey is on track for the Bailey 6-pack.

You don't know if he will have the same impact as GM as he did as a coach. Only time will tell. I wish him the best.

Exactly.
Trotz bought a home in Nashville last summer.
As you said good luck to him he’s paid his dues as a coach. He’s starting the next chapter.

Horvat has been nothing less than awesome since he has arrived here. 4 goals 3 apples in 10 games. Just what this team has needed.

The question now is it enough to get into the dance.

I thought maybe mayfield finally got an opponent that wouldn’t kick the crap out of him.

Refs didn’t give him a chance.

If I'm being kind, I'd describe Bailey's defensive zone effort as 'economical'


What a goal by Brock!!!!!!!!!
