Every day we sit stagnent and not doing a single thing makes me dislike this organization more and more. The Islanders were a playoff team last season and fired the HC, Granato has yet to make it in what? Going into year 4 and the team regressing from all but 2 players and we keep him, just makes me ill to be a fan of this team right now since we're accepting losing once again!

Effort? They gave up the puck at least 10 times. Breakaway on on our Power play yet again? And 1 goal scored, what effort?

These lines when we need a goal you send out Greenway and frigging Girgensons? How does this guy still have a job?

Would you prefer "I like big butts" by sir mix alot?

Thompson may be the absolute worst at getting the puck out of our own zone.

3 missed nets in a row

If we could only play the blackhawks 82 times a year we'd maybe make the playoffs.

unacceptable giveaway by Middlestadt, just hit it off the boards.

I never understand this stuff to be honest, I've always sucked at math and maybe these charts bring back nightmares I'm not sure! How did they determine a 78 for offensive impact? Passing 90? Are they counting the easy passes up ice that are routine along with the hard passes because that would inflate the passing entirely. Defensive impact? Other than blocked shots how in the world can you determine that or half of these? I love what Benson brings to this team but I think these charts are just for nerds who think they're smarter than everyone else (which is most likely true but not in this case).

UPL saved the day in this 1

Getting a ham sandwich for him right now might even be a stretch.

If we could ever hit the net we might be dangerous.

Dahlin is back to being clueless.

I realize this, wasn't there another injury before this as well. Last year same thing, it's become a trend with him.

Samuelsson is definitely becoming an "injury prone" type imo. Not good!

I'm not trying to be a tool when I say this but I thought he retired years ago. Enjoy retirement!

I agree

Middlestadts best was 59.

I just disagree, I think it's a mirage since he's never been a good 2 way player until this year in his contract year no less. Again i don't think he's a bad player at all I just don't think for what he does he's worth the contract he's about to get. I agree nobody is touching Skinners contract so it's not even an option. I'd say 1 of our prospects and our 1st to get that top D but Adams has not shown at anytime that he will or wants to part with any of them even if they're all the same so a player who's in the last year of his deal makes a bit more sense if thats the case. Arent Savoie, Kulich and Östlund center prospects?

Agree to disagree then?

If we pay Casey Middlestadt then this team deserves all the criticism it gets on a yearly basis. Casey is a complimentary player, he will never produce 30 goals, jury is out that he can even score 20 in a season. I keep comparing him to Drew Stafford which I still think is a fair comparison, Drew was a good complimentary player but never should have recieved that 4M per year deal. Stafford eclipsed 20 goals 3 times and 1 30 goal season, all the other seasons were Middlestadtish 12 goals, here 15 goals there, you absolutely cannot pay Middlestadt say 5.5-6.5M it just doesn't make any sense. This right now would be the absolute perfect time toi ship out Casey for an established top 4 D man with our 1st round pick or a prospect like Savoie, we should not be even thinking of drafting a player with the 1st round pick whatsoever, this pick should be used to help bolster the core that our GM has given contracts to and Casey should not be in the core of players not because I think he's a bad player, he isn't but for reasons stated earlier above but that's just my opinion and the way it looks I may be in the minority on this.
