Mayfield icing, drink!

How about we drink when he DOESN'T ice it so I can live past 50?

If Bellows becomes another Jason Wiemer, would that be ok?

 

[Not4u]

Bellows needs to work on his speed

Maybe they have good skating coaches in Buffalo or Jersey?

I find they are both built the same and play the same. Bellows like to check and his shot is a quicker version than Clutterbuck. He's like a better Cbuck...in Clutter's hayday, he was top 6...clutter today...in beast mode is top 6. I think Bellows has a higher ceiling. The problem is that I don't know if he can beat anyone out in the top 6...so where does that leave him? MAYBE 3rd line? I'm still thinking 4th, especially since he's cheap

Clutterbuck still has 1 more year left on is contract, although there is a lot of mileage on his tires based on his style. I have actually wondered if Lou put Clutter on the LTIR island next year if we need cap room. If Bellows doesn't wind up as a middle 6, I don't see him with us. He is an RFA after this year, although as you mentioned, I would expect he will still be very cheap.

What’s good, anything?

Yeah...I think he's about at his max.

Ugh Wahlstrom to the dressing room again? He took another hard hit a shift of so again. and had gone to the room after a big hit on Saturday.

 

[SI90]

Dobson is so good.

 

[ekill08x]

[19 in a row]

nice shift and an icing. put the screws to them here. big face-off

 

[13th Floor]

Dobson is gonna be so good.

 

[GrandmaSlices51631]

Jesus, Martin is a net front monster.

 

[PWJunior]

Dobson is rounding back to form, so silky in the offensive zone.

 

[ekill08x]

we lose wahlstrom and we are in trouble

 

[periferal]

This is exactly where having scoring help could make the difference in a shift...And thus a game, and thus a series.

I think I may like every post praising Dobson.


Added bonus...We can't lose him to Covid again.

 

[SI90]

We should have at least 3 goals lol

 

[13th Floor]

Come on Bailey.

 

[Not4u]

Imagine Bailey would shoot....

 

[ekill08x]

dobson always gets his shot on net. hes going to be better than anyone we have on D.

 

[BrockLobster]

2 crossbars. 20 min of domination. This is checking all the islanders are gonna get shutout boxes

I'd trade a 1st to give him Pulock's shot.

bad timing for a penalty , they will have. fresh sheet to start the 2nd

A trade for a scoring forward is a matter of when not if.

This isn’t the Snowjob era of Islanders hockey where the GM just sits on his hands and puts all his chips into the likes of Shane Prince or Tyler “Chest Sniper” Kennedy.
