I think what happens the rest of the season and in the playoffs could dictate what they do with him. If they miss the playoffs or get quickly bounced in the first round I could see them moving him sometime between the summer and next year's trade deadline. But if they make the playoffs and go on a little bit of a run I imagine they hang onto him for next year and see where they're at come deadline day.

I agree. All depends on how this season plays out.

Until Lou is gone that 7 year extension is always in play.

Right now they've played themselves back into relevancy, so I'm only concerned about the rest of this year and the playoffs. Everyone can debate the rest in the offseason after we see how things finish up.

Yep! Trade deadline is over. Focus is on if the team can make the playoffs.

What is the projected point total to secure a spot this year?

It’s a good question. I’m not sure.

The Penguins announced today that the shipment carrying the Jagr bobbleheads for tonight’s game has been stolen en route to Pittsburgh.

As a result, the bobbleheads will not be distributed at tonight’s game, but will be distributed at a later date.

I hope whoever stole them is a big jagr fan. I imagine whoever did was probably like wtf when they started opening boxes. 😆

I don't know why, but looking at the picture of the Jagr bobblehead made me think of the old Seinfeld episode with the Phil Rizzuto keychain that goes, "Holy cow!"

My daughter and her friend will be sitting 1st row tonight. Hopefully the Islanders will give them something to cheer about.

My concerns about them leveling due to their games against San Jose and Anaheim seems to have been validated.

Terrible 3 on 1 by Greenway, that was as bad as Engvall last game. Isles need to wake up
