Hmmmmmm... ^ :shakehead:

I understand he is our starter, but I say we go with the goalie that gives us the best chance of winning.

can't help but think of Billy Smith when the islanders come to town.... wonder if anyone's given thought to a Billy Smith hat trick.... our Smith is just the guy to do it.

should be some die-hard Islander fans there tonight.

thanks for the gdt.

I understand you post on message boards and are entitled to your opinion, but I say we go with what Dave Tippett thinks instead of Vipassana or any other posters on this site.

For a "Devils Advocate," you're awfully statist.

Did you miss the Colorado game? Of it wasn't for Greiss we would've lost. Easily.

Yeah I want Greiss. With Smith in net no matter how good our D is we'll have to score 4+ to win this one.
Prove me wrong Mike.

Also LOL at Tim Kennedy being on the first line. Man we need another top 6. Hopefully Domi takes over next year.

NHL.com has Tim Kennedy on the first line.

I sincerely hope that's not the case.
It's not about being the best player, it's about being the right one. Kennedy + Hanzal + Vrbata has been a very good line. Dave Moss hasn't exactly been a first line scorer his career, but him + Doan + Ribeiro works pretty well, eh?

LOL. Isn't that the truth, but it's still fun being an armchair GM.

Beautiful GDT, bravo!

Danger game I feel; the Isles should really be much better than what they have done so far and I don't like this match up for us.

Please may I be wrong.

While Tim Kennedy is not in my opinion, or apparently anyone elses around here, a top six forward.... the tone towards him seems to be disrespectful of the great job he's done with the current role asked of him.

Does no one else appreciate what he's done?

it may not change the outcome, but why use a flyweight, when we have a middleweight on our team?

Why call up Brule to have him sit? Brule > Kennedy in my opinion. Anyways hope for a good game that will impress all any new comers. Be good if it was a dominant win like the season opener. However, I would settle for any type of win.
