The play was always along the boards. Nolan type hockey=boring hockey in my opinion. Colliton has played the wing when called up before, you are right that is why he was called up recently though. I know you said in a year he will be better just don't understand why? He looked NHL ready to me. Why not call him up now. Because we are scared to send him back down? We don't have a problem sending everyone else up and down. If Comeau is only a modest prospect then whats the problem? Enough of this system crap, he seems to be playing ok at the bridge.

The Goring years (not his fault)were the worst it ever was. No it was much worse a few years ago Mike.

I mean, I try to watch these games and there is absolutely not one exciting player or even one young player that is worth watching. And I mean in any area, goal scoring, playmaking, toughness, goaltending. There is nothing here. is it me or is this the most unwatchable Islander team in history?

Anytime a rookie goes down to injury, another should be brought up to gain NHL experience. Nobody knows how good any of the BPT can be at the NHL level. Winning for NYI is in the future NOT NOW!!!

Last year was the first year for this training staff and thus far it has been two miserable years. I fully expected after last season the team would have replaced them.

That is a ridiculous comment. That is not bad point production on this team. Why wait till next year. That is not bad for a rookie. I don't think anyone is saying he is the next great one. Stop the exaggerating. He is a decent young player that is doing ok in the AHL. Better than bringing up Colliton! The reason they don't disclose injuries sometimes I think is to sell tickets. I would be a little more inclined to go to a game if Okposo was in the line up. Who cares if comeau only gets 41 pts? That is a ridiculous comment. That is not bad point production on this team.

CB, if those college players were in the draft, what round and overall would they get picked so we have an image of what were looking at here. im guessing 10-20? lemme know. besides, its still reletively early in the season. lets sign the college players, get okposo and neilson back and then lets get the season started.
