Talk about the game here. Post game report to follow. Same lineup as earlier this week with Nabokov starting. Steve Staios is a game time decision.

    What a joke this organization is.

    I almost think the Isles need to stop with the overkill ceremonies. There was absolutely no juice to that ceremony, it was very weird.

    at some point, a player on the isles needs to take an awful penalty, hammering with intent to injure, a top line talent on the opposition. then, post game, reference the abuse Tavare takes each game, and announce the old eye for an eye policy. its got nothing to do with in game toughness, and everything to do with where the team sits in the standings. drive taylor hall into the boards head first and tell sutton and eager two can play that game( a la billy smith rolling round like gretzy did in 1983).
    theres clean hits in the game and theres crap. the crap has to stop.

    Please bring back konopka & if you don’t want to
    Play gillies go get a legit heavy. Tavares won’t last much longer. We are one of the softest teams in the league!! Get well Haley!!!!

    Just got back from game and another good crowd(chalk it up to holidays). The Morrow ceremony was awkward and disappointing not one former teammate was present. Hard to believe the great run was 30 years ago. Kudos to Matt Martin for drawing 2 roughing penalties against Ben Eager which resulted in Power play goals.Eager was benched for the 3rd period. Josh Bailey really throwing his weight around these days-where did that come from? 4th line is dreadful. Good to see Motteau out of line-up.
