He has suck great stick handling skills – just like a certain player that was an Islander that also came from the Syracuse area.
Just a great move to finish a ho-hum game. But it is two points that they really need.
Rollie was OUTSTANDING! I like how Bailey is playing, but not getting rewarded. Okie is just Okie, and I think he deserves to be in Vancouver in February.
Tambellini did not embarass himself.
It was not a game worthy of a lot of praise, but will take the yeoman efforts, and take the two points and head North to Ottawa!
Happy New Year!
Gary Harding is the “EYES” of the eyesonisles.com blog.
A former President of the Islanders Booster Club, and a season ticket holder for over 20 years, Gary qualifies as a ‘long suffering’ Islander fan. He, and his wife, Claire, sit in row A of Section 317, and attend just about every game possible, as well as a few road games in the year, too.
He has been a member of the “Islanders Blog Box” since 2008; a project that allows bloggers like him, to be able to obtain media cridentials to Islander home games, and get the perspective of reporting a game, just as if he is a full blown member of the media.
Gary, born and raised in Levittown, on Long Island, has been working for a major car rental company for almost 25 years. He has been married to Claire for almost 5 years. They met on a bus trip to see the Islanders play in Montreal. Gary also is a fan of the New York Mets, Long Island Ducks, New York Jets, Everton of the English Premier League, and is a big fan of the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame. Gary is also an accomplished bowler, having achieved perfection on May 4th, 1994, by bowling a perfect 300 game. His highest league average ever was 216, and highest series was 798.
Favorite Isles Moment – Everyone says the cups. They were great. However, I was not a season ticket holder, or going to the games, so my favorite, was the 1993 march to the semi’s – beating Washington and Pittsburgh – the best was seeing Darius Kasparitis punching Lemieux like a rented Mule!
Favorite All time Isles player – Tie – Bossy on Offense, and Glenn Healy at the net.
Favorite Current Isles player – Okposo and JT – of course – and with every day appreciating the play of Andrew MacDonald
Favorite NHL City – Not Long Island – Vancouver with a close second to Ottawa – followed by Montreal (spot a pattern here?)
Favorite player – not an Islander (I like watching Ovie! – He is animated, funny and makes his mark)
Team I hate the most (what do you think?)
Gary currently resides in Halesite, Long Island. His e-mail address is
