If anyone here was at the game, share thoughts on the ceremony for Trotts. From the pics I've seen so far it looks like it was cool, typical but nicely done.
As for the game, I was at some bullshit all morning and afternoon for school, so I again missed the radio broadcast, but I'm glad they got the point. They just gotta learn to keep the puck out of their zone w/ under 10 seconds left :p
Oh well, as stated - still unbeaten in regulation. And now they have a week off, geez, what am I gonna do?
Let's Go Isles!

the tribute was nice...other than Bossy looking pretty old. Trottier was funny making fun of their grey hair. it does suck that the next game isn't until Friday. it's just another thing as an Islander fan that i'm worried will ruin their momentum.

they survived a scare in OT, luckily the time ran out, they could have lost, how devastating would that be if they blew a 2-1 lead with 6 seconds to go and then lose in ot, ozzy played good can't blame him for it

I couldn't watch the game, I don't get Fox Sports Net. Can you believe Cablevision wants $12.50 a month for Fox Sports Net ALONE??? With a parent company like that, it's no wonder I'm an Isles/Nets fan.

Ziggy, thanks for standing up for the Coliseum. Those who bashed it obviously haven't had any bad experiences there. It's a great arena, (And this is coming from someone who's been treated like a king in the Air Canada Centre's Press Box,) but it needs a facelift.

I'll defend the Coliseum to the death, but there's no denying the fact that improvements must be made. Should we tear it down completely? Not necessarily. In fact, most of the Coliseum's problems are not the arena itself, rather the area. It needs better transportation nearby and more attractions around it.

Wang is trying to get something set up where the Coliseum would have a train station or monorail and a convention center in Uniondale. Unfortunately, the County legislature isn't quite as enthused. Hopefully, I can see this idea approved before I go to college.

It wouldnt have been that devastating. They still would have come out with 1 point. Giving the Sharks an extra point wouldnt have meant anything to the Islanders. But I guess its good for their psyche to get a tie rather than an OT loss.

probably as devastating as giving up a goal w/ 9.6 secs left and losing to the wings in ot... meaning not at all with this year's team - winning both ends of a home and home next time out. this squad is showing some major resiliency, come-from-behind victories, holding on at the end for the win/tie, coming back from that lone loss, filling in when peca got hurt. these guys are serious, and they're not gonna let little stuff get in their way. I don't think this week off will do anything bad to their mentality, in fact it'll give peca a chance to rest and get back to 100% again.

Nostradamus, thy name is Faceman :) Sorry I had to bust your balls since the Isles have the biggest thread of all hockey teams.

The Isles, especially Ozzie, have had a pretty grueling schedule. This rest will be a Godsend for them.

a season sweep of the canes would definitely be nice joint, we can only hope. i'm actually looking forward to sunday's game against the stars - not only to see (hear) turgeon on the island once again, but to see what they can do against another of the "powerhouse" teams in the league. keep it up!
btw, if anyone saw the chat w/ parrish on espn.com the other day, that was some good stuff, he talked about the team chemistry and how they're all becoming a tight-knit group and stuff. sounds like everything's coming together.

for some reason, i wouldnt call dallas a powerhouse team any more, they could be doing way better with the talent they have, they lost to pittsburgh (yay for me) so there's a little shakey start in big D, i think the isles should handle them easily

Just got back from Hawaii and can't believe they are still undefeated (except for that Detroit O.T. fiasco). Hard to follow hockey from Maui! The coliseum must be rocking! Can't wait to get my ass to a game. Let's go Islanders.

I shucked it, and I shucked it, and I shucked it, i'm quite the mother shucker!

in-fucking-credible! another win, another ot win, peca w/ the goal, steve fucking webb started the scoring, ozzie was unbelievable.
Let's Go Islanders!!!
and since I can be nice sometimes, not to be outdone was the work of Marty Turco, the guy stood on his head today and made 43 saves. that deserves a little recognition on its own.

and what to my wondering eyes should appear, but the end of october and the isles still in first place!! i am in heaven, and don't care what anyone says, this team is for real...they are going to suprise some people this year do 2 things...1) have more than 1MIL fans and 2) not finish dead last in the east...I don't want to get my hopes up too high this early, but perhaps a playoff series...

Sorry to burst your bubble but there is no way that can happen in one season unless the have seating for 25,000 people and sell out every game. the most the can have is about 850,000 people.

If you can prove other wise please do

keep it going! 3-2 over the panthers, again stifling bure, allowing him just 1 assist.
parrish extends his league leading goal total (still sounds strange saying that).
and finally a home win in regulation.
20 points - this is starting to get real fun :)

the game wasn't aired where i live, which sucks, but it's great to see another Islander win. playing the Wings again will be fun to watch. they seemed more of a fluke the first time they played...now i want to see them play tough against them again. LET'S GO ISLANDERS!!!!

jeez teq, talk about trying to rooon it...what if they make the playoffs, have home ice throughout, and take each series to the seventh game? could then they reach a mil? if not, who cares, they have the best record in hockey at the end of october, which is all i care about. they need these 2 days off so they can keep it up.
