Greatest rumor ever is Corey Perry banging Bedard’s mom.

Patrick Kane being reported to the Wings. Shame, was really hoping he would go back to the Rangers.

Wings becoming a destination. I wonder why?

Listened to Mike Reilly interview. Seems like a humble guy that is excited for the opportunity. Has a history with some of the current team.

Hopefully he can help the club on the back end. Only time will tell.

Islander fans will be calling for his execution by mid-December

I have such a hard time believing that, but the lack of instant denial from....anyone is a little surprising

Because people will be upset when they find out he's just bottom pairing guy that moves the puck decently well and probably not much more. Islander fans will be shocked that a guy who another team didn't even want and we got for free isn't a star.

And I'm not knocking the move, I liked it. But he'll turn the puck over and it'll lead to a goal and people will act shocked as if we were promised something better

I do not follow a lot of other teams, but even I know not to expect much from this move. I understand Lou making the move.

You are 100% correct about this. To be fair though the positive PR he’s getting on social media pumping him up bcs he knows players, etc(I read something somewhere saying he’s really good lol) on the isles is hysterical. The fans response is even more funny. “Can’t wait to see the guy play” kind of posts setting themselves up for complete, utter, disappointment.

Between Perry and the clubs lack of denial or even some semblance of a response I’m going with it’s true mostly because it’s hysterical.

I just do not get it. The fact he has bounced around should be a clue.

He's just there so we don't have to trot Bolduc out there every night. He'll be better than him but that's probably about where it stops.

It was a smart move not to give up assets to fill the hole Pelech leaves so I'm fine with it as long as he doesn't turn out to be Bolduc-or-worse. And even if he does, he can go right back on waivers and head to Bridgeport if nobody claims him.

Yeah like chiefs said it’s a good move for us. We didn’t have much of a choice but people need to temper their expectations. He’s a body that’s about it.

That would be....something. They bring in Perry to protect Bedard and keep a veteran presence around him and then that

To be fair, Islander fans are not familiar with a lot of good players.

It's not good if Bolduc cannot get the job done. He seems to have talent but lacks confidence.

Minnesota hiring John Hynes is good news. Because he's an awful coach and if they fired Lambert and hired him that would have been absolutely terrible.

I rather have Oates. He seemed to get a quick hook with the Caps.

The Islanders fan base on twitter (although I do dig a few of the memes) has to be amongst the worst in all of sports, not just hockey…which is saying something.

The Perry-Mrs. Bedard rumors are wild. Yesterday was a quiet day at work for me and, man, people were having fun with that one.

Hopefully he can skate. 3/4 of our team can’t apparently.
