Sounds like the Penguins are placing Kasperi Kapanen on waivers today.

I'd grab him if he fell to us. One year left after this season, 3.2 hit. Can put up points.

He has 20 points this year (he'd be tied for 8th on the Islanders in points) and had 32 all of last year. He's not really a point generator.

So were there others who turned a blind eye towards evil doings while being in an authority position? Perhaps. That doesn’t make it any less reprehensible.

Would say Graham James was much worse. He was doing evil in the position of authority and with kids. I’m not trying to quibble on your point other than I think there are worse, unfortunately.

We can take the dumpster out of the isles, but can’t take the diving out of the fanbase….

DET has a week to extend Larkin or risk losing him "for nothing" at 26 if he walks as a UFA this summer.

According to some around here, Steve Yzerman will commit GM malpractice if he doesn't sign him or trade him by the TDL, right?

I wonder if Red Wings HF has their own version of periferal?

I've been trained to think every waiver wire guy is a great pick up for the Isles!!!
(That said, we should have grabbed Vrana)

CBJ had a 4-0 lead, and Edmonton has scored 4 straight for the 4-4 tie heading into the third.

i have Edm in survivor pool. i keep picking vs Home Town Johnny and those are the only games they win

we're pretty sure the Rangers are losing to our playoff competitors on purpose just to shove it up there right??

Caps curb stomping the rags, too

No. I honestly think it’s a mix of they have messed a bit with their chemistry, uncertainty of roster movements, pressure of expectations. Last part mostly Shesterkin.

Sounds like an advertisement for a Happy Meal.

Igor is not better and never has been.

I prefer this outcome, Caps aren’t the main threat anyway. Also don’t think we’ll make the playoffs regardless

Skinner on Edmonton is trash. They could use a Varly

Varly killing us by not waiving for EDM

 

[CupHolders]

I always maintain that it was a grammar mistake. Igor’s better… was merely meant to state that: “Andrei Vasilevskiy is Igor’s better!”

Varly killing us by not waiving for EDM

is this true? I had not seen this or any legit rumor about Varly.

 

[SRBisles]

Kravtsov to VAN

Sorry, you did not survive.

 

[Zeeker]

Big win for CBJ. We don’t want Bedard in this division

 

[Big L]

7th round in 2026? 2026?? What f***in year is it now again? Wtf?

 

[19 in a row]

it seems inevitable, so hope the Rangers give up a boatload for Kane.. going for it all now, will have their own cap issues going forward likely.

And I for one, will be a huge Devils fan in round 1..

 

[Taswell]

Lol @ that Kravtsov return. But yeah, Kane being held out means it must be about done.
