I would suggest to all of those that continue on this rant to nominate a spokesperson and suggest to all the 19-25 year olds in the Islanders locker room that they should lose the remainder of their games...for the fans of course.

Bergie was turning heads in the last few games & he'll be missed. Joey Mac wasn't, but hey, why not add another goalie injury to the list for 08-09? Yikes. I am concerned that timeframes for both Weight and Park to return are not being mentioned. Is Weight even practicing or with the team on this roadtrip? Where has Park gone? All I ask for the remainder of the season is for the Islanders to keep the games interesting. If the games are like last night's Ottawa-Tampa Bay game (read: snoozefest!), I'll be getting more sleep for sure. Hey wait, that might not be a bad thing.

This kid has been phenominal. I think this team would be making a huge mistake if they let him sign anywhere else. God forbid, DP never returns to his AllStar calliber form and we need Danis for the long term, we might have another allstar n the making. Regarding the post that only 2 of the last 11 teams with the worst record getting the 1st overall pick sounds wrong but what do I know? :dontknow: I’m not sure if most islander fans noticed but Danis has been better than an avg number 1 goalie.

I can't say for certain what a gm will or will not do.I was merely stating that it's something you have to take into considration.It's not something too far fetched if you followed professional sports for any length of time.And thats not taken from any board or blog that's fact.

I'm assuming 2 isn't enough? shhhh... remember the guidelines Johnny ok, Good night I wonder how many years of leading the NHL in man games lost, does it take before you can say strength and conditioning is definitely a problem? I’m assuming 2 isn’t enough?

shhhh… remember the guidelines Johnny

That was post (48), sorry. BTW Johnny Islander (52): if someone suggests there may be an issue with strength and conditioning, I would not disagree with that. But when people proclaim that is definitely the problem and start calling for peoples heads and demanding people are fired from their jobs, well- that is not suggesting there may be an issue, that is making a bold and relatively unfounded presumption. Thats how I see it anyway. Oops! That was post (48), sorry.

According to nhlscap, in the last 11 years it was actually four of them where the worst team from the season before kept the 1st overall pick- not two. (99,05,06,08). And the three years before that (95,96,97) the worst team the season before also kept the 1st overall pick. So, that means it is 7 out of the last 14 drafts where the worst overall team from the season before kept the 1st overall pick in the following draft. puckhead68 (47): You are mistaken.

Yea, that's a shocker. I love when people like to point out the few broken bone injuries that have happened when countering those who suggest there may be an issue with strength and conditioning. What they fail to mention that if you took all the Isles man-games lost to groin injuries alone it would be more than some other teams total. If you add in the other various "strains" "soreness" "swelling" and various other "upper and lower body" ailments, it really is just a bad joke at this point. Another groin strain…?
