Ever since that first game in the 2003 playoffs where the Senators, having captured the President's Trophy, allowed the Islanders to murder them 3-0 in front of the home crowd; I never, ever tell myself the Islanders are a guaranteed win

It might have more to do with the fact that it was the first playoff game I ever watched

JT scares me tonight. I'm wondering how we'll handle Grabner's speed, too.

Isn't this considered Greening's sophomore season?

That's what I'm chalking his disappointing play up to.

Obviously not playing with Spezza is going to hurt his numbers, but it doesn't explain why he has such a hard time getting the puck out of our zone.

He's got too many tools to be down for long, though.

I was at that game as well.

I knew we'd murder them by the end of the series and we did.

When someone who was described by the staff as one of the smartest players on the ice suddenly looks really dumb, I think we can chalk it up to confidence and a sophomore slump.

We've seen Greening play his game effectively. He just isn't doing it this year and you can tell he's frustrated and looks lost out there.

With big Andy in the pipes im not to worried, hoping we can put up enough offense
