The Isles opened the preseason with a 4-2 win over the New Jersey Devils on Sunday night, but are expected to ice a relatively different lineup compared to the opening preseason matchup. Check back closer to warmups for Tuesday's lineup. Head Coach Patrick Roy will address the media at 4:45 p.m.

Islanders: Alot
The elbow posse: less

To paraphrase Chevy Chase, Generalissimo Josh Bailey is STILL retired . . .

 

[SI90]

Just win. Especially against these clowns

Bolded is still a free agent. He never actually announced retirement from pro hockey. We could use a guy who needs chains to hold back his intensity out there.

I know it’s a meaningless preseason game but I feel compelled to say “F’ the Rags.”

 

[Mr Misunderstood]

Must win.

We're back baby.

“F them” is right though considering Laviolette thinks this is game 82 of the regular season with that lineup.

If Rempe is in, then will Martin dress to be our designated puncher?

Nice, LGI

I personally want to see Romanov throw one of those Kasparitis submarine hits on Rempe.

Let Rempe score 5 goals tonight so all the Rags fans can think he's Lindros re-incarnated, only to score 5 g's over the real 82.

I don’t think I can deal with another season full of fans who scream like Frank The Tank (while trying to figure out which is the left vs right shoe) claiming that kid is a legit NHL player. Even Johnston wasn’t that stupid out there and he only had one actual skill.

Nah, JGP will punch his lights out and Rempe will retire in disgrace . . .

Look at that lineup. Then again, this game is their Stanley Cup.

So what? 9-1 for the good guys!
