Loser: Alan Quine

It was actually pretty hard to pick a loser for this week. In week’s past usually it was hard to find the winner for the week but I have to go with Alan Quine.

He’s been extremely underwhelming in my opinion. Was I expecting him to be an offensive juggernaut? Absolutely not, but he hasn’t even been serviceable.

In 17 games he’s got one goal and two assists (three points). He doesn’t kill you with taking a ton of penalties he’s only got one so far this year and he has a positive plus minus but his once heroic playoff stretch is long in the past.

Just eight months ago he was playing alongside John Tavares in the Stanley Cup Playoffs as hard as that may be to believe.

Although that could be said with numerous forwards on the Islanders roster, Quine might be the most glaring. He’s a part of the middle six unit that tends to be rather useless for the Isles.
