    Garth Snow and Wang are in this together. Nolan did the best he could with the players Wang and Snow gave him to work with. Snow is just continuing along the same path as Milbury did, destroy the franchise. Nolan had NO input on who was drafted or who to sign as a FA. Wang is too much of a hands-on owner with zero hockey smarts. As much as I hated to see Nolan leave, It was probably the best thing for him.

    i became happy they fired Smith and that i'm a existence long Isles fan..Smith has hyperlinks to the Rangers, and would wreck the team merely like mononey did interior the 90s..and as a strategies because of the fact the circus in manhattan..if i seem i think of that the Islanders nevertheless have greater cups then the two teh dDevils or the Rangers..and one reliable year with the help of the Rangers doesnt erase that they have got finished in the back of the Isles the three years earlier that. I would desire to declare the full league has been fairly lame so a strategies as signings..the Islanders nevertheless have some skills in Bridgeport..they have been very reliable the previous couple of seasons...they ought to nevertheless seem to sgn one greater defenseman..and take a examine out to commerce yashin. the Islanders will fairly make the playoffs this year yet they'll make it b/c i've got faith that Dipietro is able to coach some beter chioces

    why would you drop down 4 spots in the draft/ and give away a franchise dmen like luke shen to the leafs who our rebuilding with them and in z same conference..im really confused in the direction of this organization.

  • This team has been bad for at least 10 years now. Can't blame it all on Snow because he was playing for them back then.

    Can't put the whole thing on Snow. They've been doing badly since the mid-90's.

    wongs master plan is that lighthouse project that will never work. he wants to basically destroy the islanders, cause them to fold/be moved so he can make houses and shopping malls.
