Chris, great job on XM tonight and the Site in general, unfortunately their are too many self hating I’ll call them non fans who when a team is out manned can not appreciate the effort the team is putting forth. At this point we have to give them 20 games to see what kind of team it will be once all (most) of the injured return. I would rather see us finish last and get Hedman, I’ve heard he is a beast combo Lidstrom & Pronger. It was clear tonight how much the team missed Sutton & Witt in front of the net and in the corners, the team has to have some toughness on the ice in this series.

Great Job on the Third Jersey, it matches the Jerseys the team was selling two years ago (white numerals)

lISTEN RICKISTRASH, I agree dipietro has way to much power on this team, but the simple fact is he is our goalie and dubie is not. So dry your eyes, dubie is gone. Support who you have

I stand corrected. I still would rather have Rick dipietro as our starting goalie than dubie. Dipietro is simply the better goalie.

Hmm Islanders1984….why would fans think dubie is better? Maybe because the isles have better numbers in 06-07 and 07-08 when he was in. Go wear your rick jersey tool.

ISLANDERS1984………Dubie’s GAA is 2.80 and he is 7-4-1. So you heard wrong. And oh yea, he is in a huge OFFENSIVE league.

let me get this straight - ricky gets hurt in warm ups and plays the first period - risking greater injury, letting in two goals and giving the puck away on one very stupid play? yhy would he do that? Is his ego that big? Is gordon an idiot?

I heard dubie was playing horrible in Russia. So everyone needs to stop the dubie dubie chant everytime dp lets a goal in. Its amazing that some people honestly beleive this team would be better with Dubie as a starter than rick dipietro

No one is blaming DP I think we are all ticked at ownership for treating DP like he is Brodeur or Roy

there is NO DOUBT Dubie would have more points for this team. What am I basing that on? The fact that he has done it time and time again for this team. But when you don’t bow down and suck off Rick like the rest of this organization, you have to go. Garth should go wipe his chin. Some of Rick’s DNA is still there.

WOW!

How fickle a fan base we have here.

To paraphrase the gereral sentiment I’m reading on this blog:

“…DP is the worst goalie I have ever seen… let’s take him out back and finish it so he doesn’t ruin the rest of my life…”

We would be like 8-0 if only Dubie was here…

This country is in trouble.

I believe the lighthouse will happen, Its not going to be exactly how wang wants it to be, but it will come true one day. Wang may do crazy things, but I would take him over the milsteins and day of the week. the guy at least puts money into the team
