basically 3 Islanders fans, or 50% of their fan base, whatever you prefer are the biggest homers on these boards. farmer and racecar try to use the idea that because their team won 4 cups in the late 70s-early 80s, their team is better now than teams like the Penguins and Rangers. they also have had some amusing playoff predictions and trade proposals. they also like to laugh at teams losing in the playoffs, which is funny considering their recent years. finally, racecar continues to laugh at his attempt at humor like a 5 year old. 

if you are looking for some entertainment scuba, you should read this thread. it is pretty good. 

hopefully i covered everything.  

for an "irrelevant", non-Playoff team, this Islanders thread sure stays hot...

Wow no mention of yours truly?

damb..........I only started the f'ing thread!

No worries, if he becomes a regular he will enjoy all the quality insites, hockey facts and fiction as well as a few funny pointers here and there.

As for Kreider vs Tavares, please refrain from even going there! Kreider might become a nice player, but he is and will never be JT!

No comparison. Kreider has played in 6 times the amount of playoff games Tavares has.

Can't argue with that quote, guilty as charged!

When Ted makes the Kool-Aid he stirs it with his hand and forearm (up to the elbow)............Drink up!

Saw a couple of articles saying the Oilers will stun the Hockey world and either draft Nail then trade or take Ryan Murray first overrall. I can't believe the latter, he can get Murray at 3, maybe 4, plus a boatload of picks/ prospects!

Tho Dumba's stock continues to rise!

Oh BTW..............GO CAPS!

OVIE.........................

IGWT! 

Brooklyn is better than Quebec City...

Is it? Out of principle, the fact that Nassau County can't get it's shit**** together, but the thought that they will move to Brooklyn drives me me nuts! Like Bald Britney nuts, minus the sloppy funbags and recycled genitalia! 

I am just gonna try and enjoy the roller coaster that is the current NY Islanders and hope that the Tooth Fairy, Santa Claus or maybe George Bailey can save the once proud hockey franchise! The Model/ BLUE PRINT for a franchise. God...........that's why enjoy what you got while you got it!

GO CAPS!

DDD!

I think he Oilers will trade down.. They need defense more than any other team probably.. maybe except for the Islanders and Blue Jackets.
i have seen some more Dumba footage on Youtube..He looks pretty damn good.. like his style of play and he hits like a truck..

Ratner hoping Islanders follow Nets to Brooklyn

The developer and owner of Brooklyn's new Barclays Center believes his state-of-the-art facility can hold hockey for more than just a passing game or two.

Bruce Ratner, who will welcome the NBA's Nets to Brooklyn next season, is hopeful of the arena's potential NHL prospects as well, perhaps even the New York Islanders, who are looking for a new home. In fact, the building already has ice and locker rooms for both sports.

"(Barclays Center) was made for hockey and basketball," Ratner told the Associated Press. "It could easily support a hockey team."

"It holds 14,500 for hockey," Ratner said.

The Islanders announced in January that they will play the New Jersey Devils in a preseason game at Barclays on Sept. 28.

The Islanders' lease at Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Uniondale expires following the 2014-15 season. Team owner Charles Wang and NHL commissioner Gary Bettman have been adamant that the Islanders will not play in the Coliseum after that point, although both have reiterated their desire to keep the Islanders in the New York City area.

The Coliseum, which houses the Islanders' four Stanley Cup championship banners from its rafters, is the second oldest active arena in the NHL, next to the recently renovated Madison Square Garden, home of the New York Rangers.

Nassau County residents voted down a proposal that would allow the county to earmark $400 million in borrowing for a new coliseum and a minor league baseball park last August. And Wang's Lighthouse Project aimed at a new arena, which would have been privately funded, never made it past the proposal stage.

Bettman is hopeful the Islanders can stay on Long Island, one way or the other. Though, he is open to change, if needed. On April 20, in a meeting with the Associated Press Sports Editors, he approached the topic.

"Barclays, I suppose," he said, "on some level, is an option."

But he also stuck to his stance that a franchise with plenty of history and tradition - four Cups, five conference titles and six division crowns - should stay on Long Island. The Islanders finished the regular season at 34-37-11, and missed the playoffs for the fifth straight year.

"We're going to do everything possible to figure out a way to make this work here," Bettman said. "And if we're unsuccessful at some point, then we'd have to consider the (relocation) options.

"But we're not anywhere near that."

 

Brooklyn..............no thank you!


Again MOST of the Isles Fans will not travel from eastern Nassau and Suffolk to Brooklyn, I am in Western Nassau and I will not go to Brooklyn!

DIE KATE MURRAY!

GO CAPS!

Did you get promoted to Manager of Burger King?? After 24 years of working the fry machine like a pro, your hard work finally paid off. For Burger King, it's a sad day. They will never find someone like you who is so dedicated to fries, especially since the customer has a choice of fries or onion rings. Congrats brother.

Again, no, dickb@g. Close on the # of years I've been with the same company .Actually 26 years. I know you cant understand someone being gainfully employed for that long. You speak alot about BK though. I see you a fat slob that probably lives off fast food in his momma basement with 4 or 5 cats.

LETS GO Rangers.

Have a good day dickb@g!
