believe it or not, sometimes the health of your family members comes above sports. fustrating, i know, but we wont give him away for nothing. he's locked into a contract with us and there's nothing he can do about it unless one of the western canadian teams can make us an offer for him we like

Take a leave of absence. Take some of your millions and fly whoever out to NYC and put them in the best hospitals in the country.

Not buying this crap. This guy wants out because he has his 7 year deal and wants to spend it home.

Any emergency would result in a leave of absence. How sick can someone be where he's playing this good?

 

[periferal]

Isles playoff chances take a legitimate hit with Travis gone.

After all this organization has invested in him, he does something like this in year 2 of a long term deal.

The sooner they get rid of this cancer, the better. No teammates wants to go to war with a guy that wants out.

If Snow takes a hit, he takes a hit. But Travis has to go. STAT.

But say goodbye to the playoffs or going far. Forget that top 4 defenseman don't grow on trees, Travis is our number one defenseman.

This is seriously so Islanders it's not funny. At some point I think I have to bow out of this crap.

"O-VER-REACTION"


Clap, clap, clapclapclap..


I guess if Tavares also had a loved one very sick and respectfully asked for a trade that you'd deal him "STAT" as well for a 4th round pick - You know, just to get that "cancer" off the team.

 

[periferal]

The answer will always be Ownership.

How does stuff like this keep happening to us? How could this guy not want to play on a legitimate playoff contender and work out the family issues?

What a ****ing mess. I can't root for a player looking for a trade. So it won't be the same until he's gone. and I'd love to see how this impacts the dressing room.

Make a list of the best owners in sports and then look at how their teams have done under while they were owner.

Obviously you can then also make a list of the worst owners in sports and check the results for them as well, but I think you should've gotten it by then.

OK, after 36 pages I'm on this.

Hamonic requested a trade.

Josh Bailey somehow influenced Hamonic to leave the Islanders by pointing out all the Barclays problems (ice, scoreboard, seating etc).

Animated GIF's are our friends.

Trouba>>>>>>>>>>Hamonic
Nurse>>>>>>>>>>>Hamonic
Myers<Hamonic
JVR>>>>>>>>>>>>>Gretzky
Eberle>>>>>>>>>>>Lemieux

Toronto fans believe that Morgan Riley is the next Bobby Orr and will explain to you in great detail why we are so fortunate to get him. What they are not explaining is how such greatness can be overlooked because they include him in every trade offer for any player. Doughty on the market you say? Well we can give you Riley and JVR, Riley = Orr just as MC=Squared.

I have way too much free time on my hands.

BroadwayJay and Bones45 go together like Lamb and Tuna.

LedPipe02 secretly has a huge "man crash" on Pulock. I also think it goes deeper then the crush, no pun intended.

Hip Of Rick is really Snow trolling us.

DanO16 is grumpy.

Buffalo fans really hate me.

You can now go back to your regular scheduled broadcast.

You think it's bad now. Just wait until he gets called up...

edit: Sorry just saw no gifs

DanO16 is grumpy.

Why does everyone think I'm grumpy? I could be a captive audience for BJ's spreadsheets while Enigmatic is holding me in a headlock and Strummer is treating me like a major appliance.... and I'd smile.

Quick crib notes for our test next week.

 

[Lame Lambert]

Is this rated PG-13, I am confused....

You should've seen the other gif I was going to post but didn't

 

[nyisles]

Lol... Whatever happened to attorney/client privilege? Why are you posting your clients on the Internet? More importantly why is Brian Strait not part of this?

Well, the guy getting shanked in that gif is a lawyer, and one of those dudes does have a sick beard, so... RIP Jay

Eberle does not work for you

Eberle to Jets
???? to NYI
Hamoric to Edmonton

Jets are looking to move a D for a FW
Oilers are looking to add a D and move a FW
NYI want to get equal value for Hamoric

If it is the Oilers and NYI--my guess from the Oilers perspective either Klefbom or Nurse would need to be in the discussion. Hamoric is good and both Nurse and Klefbom have good chances to being good as well (nurse went 7th over all and Klef at 12--please do not call them trash--both are developing at a good pace)--but most oiler fans would call it a lateral move trading either Klef or Nurse for Hamoric as we are not in a win now mode (like as if we are ever) and we can wait for both Nurse and Klef to develop. Hamoric is of greater value right now--but in two years time both Klef and Nurse could be of equal value.

Just an observation from an oiler perspective

It's been confirmed from multiple sources that any EDM proposal that doesn't have Nurse or Klefbom is a non-starter.

Ever since you had my back on the Buffalo fiasco I can now feel like you are my Felix Unger, as I'm Oscar Madison.

IF IF IF IF

The NYI are willing to take either Fayne or Schultz and something for Hamoric--most the oiler fan base will pass the hat to pay for a first class ticket

Where did you get confirmation that neither Klef or Nurse would not need to be involved? Only sources I have seen are oiler based--none from the NYI base--speculation is that Schultz could be of interest--if the oilers add their first

Sooner rather than later would be preferable. Thanks.

The Dreger interview today and Staple. Staple doesn't even think it would be with EDM because Nurse doesn't have enough experience to fill in.

 

[eoin92]

What do you guys think of this one: Tavares to Toronto and in exchange, Toronto helps us find a trade partner for Hamonic. Better to get this done now before Tavares asks for a trade and then he has no trade value.

Dude if Griffin Reinhardt (not an NHLer) can bring back 2 1sts. Then Hammer being an established Top 2 Defenseman will bring back Klefbom or Nurse. That will be end of conversation with Edmonton. Eberle is not a 1st line player. He is a good 2nd line player.

I'd only do that if they'd take Strome off our hands as well for Jake "The Snake" Gardiner.

 

[Channelcat]

They said not jacob trouba

Although I'd do Eberle and Edmonton's 1st in '16 in a hot second.

Trouba is still thought of as a future Norris winner here, although thats probably far from realistic.

I don't think that a Hamonic +, for Trouba deal is completely off the table.

I am the one saying that if the oilers/NYI get serious one of either Nurse or Klef will be involved and I am one of the guys saying Hamonic is one of the best D-men in the league

Eberle stats say other wise as for him being a 1st liner

24 goals last year and 28 the year before--but he is not what the NYI need

 

[eoin92]

That's probably a good idea. It's only a matter of time before he asks for out to go to Toronto anyway.

 

[Felix Unger]

I think Oiler fans are worse than Buffalo fans. They're just as willing, but less skilled at trolling. Is that possible?
