[RangerBoy]

Lou is back.

 

[rangers1314]

Jeez, 4/12 for Komerov.

 

[17futurecap]

Didn't overpay Leo, Roussel, Reeves or Beagle, thank you other GM's.

 

[SA16]

Lol Isles really love these long term deals for 4th line forwards and 3rd pairing dmen.

 

[nevesis]

Hahah

 

[RangerBoy]

 

[Kovalev27]

Is garth snow still running the islanders?

Komarov 4 years 12 mil?!

They’ve got clutterbuck and cizikas making a fortune on their fourth line already lol

 

[Ghost of jas]

This day keeps getting better and better.

 

[Bob Richards]

LMAO

Somehow this is the best July 1st without us making any big splashes.

 

[RangerBoy]

 

[Ghost of jas]

Lou will save them!

 

[Alluckks]

Now you have people saying he is asleep at the wheel.

It absolutely confirms my theory that a number of posters don't actually care whether we win or lose but rather get the most enjoyment out of *****ing about what we didn't do.

This is absolutely true.

Go check if you ever see any of the usual suspects posting in our Vote for Best Prospects threads. They won't be there.

 

[Kakko Schmakko]

I am telling you at this point Stalberg will be our best option.

 

[EpicDing]

This FA day just goes to show how important it is to draft and develop your own 4th liners.

 

[Lindberg Cheese]

The Leafs signed Cracknell and Jooris, lol.

I like Jooris, we need more dudes with no necks

 

[EpicDing]

I like Jooris, we need more dudes with no necks

Trotz went to the Isles though.

 

[Polar Bear]

I genuinely almost feel bad for Isles fans now. Lol

 

[Lindberg Cheese]

There’s that Beagle-esque deal....holy Moses

 

[DanielBrassard]

These teams will never learn.

 

[Mac n Gs]

Which not for nothing is the complete opposite of what everyone in Tampa said about him. He’s a center and was playing out of position on the wing.

He’s said it himself when he got here he’ll play anywhere but is much More comfortable at center.

AV said it as well not for nothing

I mean they can try it, but he looked so much better at LW to me since it allows him to attack from the wings with his playmaking ability and speed. That's what made him so successful with Stamkos and Kucherov all season.

 

[Alluckks]

The Islanders board is hilarious right now. Legitimately more entertaining than doing anything outside on this 100 degree day. I’m at a coffee shop drinking a black & tan and loving life in the AC.

I'm inside in AC drinking black coffee, but it is 105 here

 

[Kane One]

Isles not getting Tavares is the greatest thing ever.

 

[Inferno]

Ooooof...atrocious.

 

[Inferno]

When I was interested in komarov it was to 1 year a 2mil....yeeessh

 

[Kovalev27]

I mean they can try it, but he looked so much better at LW to me since it allows him to attack from the wings with his playmaking ability and speed. That's what made him so successful with Stamkos and Kucherov all season.

I’m pretty sure it was playing with stamkos and Kucherov as to what made him so successful there on the wing.

They really moved him because he was playing out of position they were never comfortable with him on the wing. Heard it a ton on NHL Radio.
