Thread: Complete Joke
Something has to be done about this team. Brassard taking a penalty with 30 seconds left, and completely blowing the tie and losing. Unbelievable. How can you let this happen? We need more SCORING. Our whole shtick with the defense is falling apart since Pelech is gone for the rest of the season, and we have no goal-scoring AT ALL. Beauvillier, Barzal and arguably Lee is about all we have for scoring, and that's why we can only seem to score against ****show teams like the Red Wings and can never score against teams with competent goaltending and players. I was so excited when Lou was hired originally - but with his bloat contracts for the passengers on our team, his obsession with keeping worthless sacks of garbage like Komarov, Martin and MDC in the lineup and not in the AHL and his complete lack of any attempt at a trade to improve the team is turning me into a doubter. If we didn't have Trotz, we'd still be a bottom-feeder. PLEASE, we need SOMETHING done, ANYTHING, to fix this complete joke of a team. Goodnight.

Thread: Is Pageau really gonna cost a 1st plus prospect
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GMs</b></div><div>For you every Isles prospect will ended up being top6 or top4 players, your opinion is useless. But it’s all good, every fan base have guys like you :)</div></div>

Bellows is playing like crazy right now with 13 goals in the past 15 games (I think that's the stat, something like that) and Wilde is just blatantly going to eventually be an NHL defenseman. Prospects like Vande Sompel, Dal Colle and Ho-Sang didn't and wont work out and I'll be the first to admit that. Guys like Wahlstrom and Dobson are also going to be top 4 guys and anybody in the NHL did, and will continue to tell you that. But guys like Bobo Carpenter, Kyle Burroghs and Linus Soderstrom are some of the prospects that I expected to be better than they were/are. I don't think every Islander prospect is going to be good, it's just that we have a lot of VERY good prospects. I apologize that a guy like you can't see that.

Thread: (NJD/ARI) - Hall, Speers for Bahl, Merkley, Schnarr, 1sr round pick, conditional 3rd round pick
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Random2152</b></div><div>Look at it for what it <strong>likely</strong> will be 5 years down the road.
4 guys who never made it or are tweeners at best and a 1st.

He got one less guy and a late first (similar in value to a 2nd).
That isn't a ton more man.



See the above.</div></div>

Late first? IF the Arizona Coyotes make the playoffs (admittedly likely), they probably won't go any further than the 2nd round (if they win the cup I'll just look like a jackass), but that means they'll have received a first and a second (assuming they dont somehow find the cap to bring Hall back) and 2 B prospects and a B/C prospect.
