To me – I blame the coach
I usually do not like to assign blame for a loss. If you win – it is a team win – if you lose – it’s a team loss. However, I think that the powers that be need to recognize…Read More
Rangers at Islanders, the last meeting in 2010 and the rivalry
So, tonight is the final meeting between the Islanders and Rangers of the 2009-2010 season. At this point, with Boston and Atlanta both having lost last night, this is a very big game for the Rangers…Read More
Another win against the west and 2 more points
It took overtime, but the Isles beat the Columbus Blue Jackets for the second time this season 4-3 on a Josh Bailey goal. The Islanders also got goals from Kyle Okposo, Sean Bergenheim and John…Read More
Eric Nystrom’s first time on NVMC ice
Eric Nystrom, current Calgary Flame and son of Islanders’ legend, Bobby Nystrom, played on Colosseum ice for the first time in his career. His Flames were in a desperate need of 2 points, as they…Read More
Truly disgusting and utterly disappointing
It is pointless to even recap or talk about last night’s loss to the Rangers. Few Isles decided to show up to play, and Dwaine Roloson surely deserved a much better fate. At this point in the…Read More
Playing for pride or playing for draft position?
This is purely a personal opinion based post, but I have found it disturbing that the discussion over…Read More
A lost weekend
Well, on top of blowing a 4-2 lead to the Ducks and losing an extra point, the Isles could not muster…Read More
Almost…. but not enough
Unfortunately, another two goal lead heading into period 3 was squished, and OT really hurt a lot. I…Read More

So, Vancouver media, what were you saying about the Islanders again?
It was a bit too late for me to stay up and catch the whole game, so Gary will be able to comment…Read More
Westward bound
Sitting at JFK waiting to get on my flight to the west coast. This is my first ‘road trip’ in a while. I do not call the Florida ones road trips, because it is a blip in my timeshare…Read More
A least we got a point
Finally… Getting a 1 in the point total. It has been a while. Was it just me – or was this game a major snore fest in the first period (before the PP that ended the stanza)? Got to get those…Read More
3rd period blows for Isles again.
Around the middle of the second period, Versus was interviewing Peter Laviolette on the bench and was asking him what he needed to have the team do. Peter replied by saying that the defense should get…Read More
2 more points squandered
This time, it was a loss to the Boston Bruins 3-2. It wasn’t as if the Islanders didn’t have their chances or made it close either. No, although they did not come out strong in the first…Read More
Thrashed in Atlanta
It doesn’t help when you fall behind in the first period of a game 4-0. I guess, if there is a positive, the Isles did out score the Thrashers 3-2 after that. In the end, though, a 6-3 loss…Read More
