Bridgeport Islanders Discussion 2024-25: Where's the Farm?

[Potvottier]

i don't see much of them, but i wonder... do you think the lack of an experienced/quality goalie is largely the reason for the ugh season? i have been on teams in which the goalie was not good enough, and it was like a plague, mentally. i know they are not considered high-powered, but we are supposed to be powered by strength, courage, work ethic. you know... character guys. that is LL's M.O., am i right?

Edit: i just checked and Tikkanen was in net for yesterday's 7-5 win over Springfield. was ugly, but good for him to get a win. AAAANNNNNDDDDDD.... i noticed that the backup was Bullion. any word on Skarek? Bullion signed a PTO on the 28th.

Was it Beef or Chicken as the backup?

unfortunately it was Bologna, a nobody from the Northern Alaska. you should ketchup. i don't relish the idea of always informing you of the latest.

6-3 L but prospects on the score sheet

Bolduc assist
Jeffries PPG assisted by Odelius
Dufour goal

 

[Arsenalogist24]

Yet another loss, lol. What a disaster up there

Odelius primary assist on the lone power play goal. Anyone know if he is the QB? Defenseman take longer to develop but how has he been?

Never seen much from Dufour even when many here had visions of the next Bossy coming. There was a reason he was a late round pick but it’s funny how the Isles struggle to develop players even though the kid made strides before getting into the Bridgeport system where most promising players are turned into beer league prospects. Glad that George didn’t see much time there

If/when the next Bossy comes, we will know it instantly.
