WELL THE YOUNG PLAYERS ARE PLAYING HARD TO IMPRESS FOR NEXT YEAR. aND YOU DON'T WANT TO TELL THEM NOT TO GO ALL OUT. THAT WOULD BE BAD AS WELL AS MAYBE CAUSE SOMEONE TO GET INJURED. 

YOUR CORRECT SOY, BUT I HAVE TO PULL FOR SOMEONE IF THE ISLANDERS AREN'T IN IT. CAN'T ROOT FOR RANGERS. HAVING A ROOTING INTEREST GETS ME MORE INTO IT. WHO EVER IS IN IT I WANT THE FINALS TO BE 7 GAMES.

EARLY 1970'S WHENI FIRST GOT INTO HOCKEY THE ISLANDERS HADN'T EXISTED YET. I USED TO ROOT FOR THE BLACKHAWKS. I LOVE THEY JERSEY. I STILL THINK IT IS THE BEST ONE IN ALL SPORTS.

YOU ARE ALSO CORRECT IS SAYING IT IS THE TOUGHEST TROPHY TO WIN. MOST EXCITING THING IN ALL OF SPPORTS IN MY OPINION. 
IF PRIEST PUT ON A PERFORMANCE BETWEEN PERIODS AT GAME 7 OF THE  STANLEY CUP FINALS...WOW IT COULDN'T GET BETTER THAN THAT. LOL

		Hey there Scorp...good game for you today...I can see why you are so pumped for next year though...think maybe they're playing too well for this time of year and with what's at stake with the draft...looking good my man!!!      scorpion01 wrote: Well this is tough. A road trip I expected to lose 3 out of 4, and we win 3 out of 4.  The Islanders are playing very well. If this is whats to come next year plus a top notch dtaft pick and hopefully 1 big fre agent, I'm excited.  They looked tired the forst 10 minutes (They played a tough game in Boston yesterday) but after that they looked great.  Good luck the rest of the way Ron. I know it's a long shot but I wouldn't mind seeing a Montreal vs chicago Stanley cup final.      ronhartsell wrote: OK Scorpion...it's ON!!!!!  2 pm today...Hawks vs. Islanders!!!  I'm gonna miss the first half as I have to attend a meeting, but I'll be racing home to catch the end!!!  Good luck!!      scorpion01 wrote: NICE GAME! I'M GLAD HE WON IT TONIGHT. VERY FITTING. I WAS THINKING OF YOU HB. SOY MAY THE CANADIENS WIN ALL THIER REMAINING GAMES.  TODAY WAS A PERFECT DAY FOR ME. ISLANDERS PLAYED GREAT AGAINST BOSTON THIS AFTERNOON BUT LOST 2-1. GAVE UP 2 EARLY GOALS. RANGERS LOST. BOTH ATLANTA  AND TAMPA BAY WON SO ISLANDERS ARE NOW 6 POINTS IN LAST IN THE # 1 PICK SWEEPSTAKES. AND BRODUER TIES THE RECORD. HOCKEY ALL DAY.  THE WEATHER WAS NICE HERE TODAY ONLY DROPPED TO 35 TONIGHT SO I SAT OUT IN THE YARD WITH A FIRE AND WATCHED HOCKEY NIGHT IN CANADA. COLORADO JUST BEAT EDMONTON ON OT.

WELL MARTY BRODEUR HAS TIED THE RECORD FOR MOST WINS ALL-TIME WITH 551...BY WINNING THE GAME 3-1...JUST FINISHED SALUTING THE CROWD WHO GAVE HIM A STANDING O...BETTER HERE THAN 5,000 OR SO EMPTY SEATS IN NEW JERSEY...CONGRATS TO MARTIN BRODEUR... 

I KNOW,I KNOW....BUT WE NEED THE TWO POINTS...MARTY PLAYS WELL HERE,SO I WON'T BE SURPRISED IF HE GETS IT.

HI SOY. HOPE YOU HAVE BEEN WELL. I'VE BEEN VERY BUSY AT WORK BEING AN ACCOUNTANT THIS TIME OF THE YEAR.

ALL IS GOING AS PLANNED EXECPT THE SCORE. HOPEFULLY MONTREAL SCORES 2 GOALS AND WE ALL GO HOME HAPPY.  AFTER THE FIRST 10 MNUTES, ISLANDERS ARE OUT SKATING AND OUT HIITTING THE CANADIANS.

IF THE ISLANDERS GROW LIKE THEY SHOULD, THE NEXT FEW YEARS ARE GOING TO BE A LOT OF FUN.

AS FOR THIS YEAR, US GETTING THE FIRST PICK AND THE RANGERS NOT MAKING THE PLAYOFFS. A GOOD THING.

YES, WE HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING TAVATES VERY CLOSELY.

CANADIANS HAVE A 2 MAN ADVANTAGE.. THIS IS GETTING EXCITING. CANADIANS SWARMING BUT NOT SCORING. ISLANDERS GOALIE YAN DANIS HAS BEEN PLAYING GREAT. WOW ISLANDERES KILL THE PENALTY THEN GIVE UP A FULL STRENGTH GOAL.

SATURDAY SHOULD BE FUN. MARTIN BRODEUR PLAYING IN MONTREAL TO TIE PATRICK ROYS RECORD.

A COMPANY CALLED TRANSCONTINENTAL FROM CANADA PRINTS OUR MAGAZINE, THEY HAD SOME STAFF DOWN HERE IN OUR OFFICE. IT WAS FUN TALKING HOCKEY WITH SUCH PASSIONATE FANS.

EDGE IN THE TAVARES SWEEPSTAKES..HE'S BURNING UP THE LEAGUE RECORDS IN THE O.H.L. HERE,AS I'M SURE YOU'RE AWARE OF...I WAS KINDA HOPING OTTAWA WOULD GET A DECENT SHOT AT HIM,BUT IT DOESN'T LOOK THAT WAY NOW! ...YOU SAY 4-3 IN REG. HUH?...I HOPE YOU'RE RIGHT WE NEED TO KEEP GETTING POINTS....I'LL AGREE WITH YOU...BUT I'LL SAY IT GOES TO A SHOOTOUT (AS MUCH AS I HATE THOSE THINGS)......GO HABS GO!      scorpion01 wrote: GOOD LUCK TONIGHT SOY. I HOPE ITS A FAST PACED HARD HITTING GAME THAT THE ISLANDERS OUTPLAY THE CANADIANS, BUT THE CANADIANS WIN 4-3 IN REGULATION. WE ARE BEGINNING TO WIN TOO MANY GAMES AND THAT LAST PLACE FINISH ARE A PROBABLE FIRST PICK IS NOT A GUARANREE ANYMORE.

WELL DARTH,IT WASN'T A BIG SHOCK,A BIT OF A SURPRISE YES,BUT NOT A SHOCK...THERE WAS PROBABLY A LITTLE MORE TO THE STORY THEN WE SHALL EVER KNOW,AND THAT'S FINE,
I MET CARBONNEAU WAY BACK WHEN HE WAS PLAYING FOR THE HABS...A NICE ENOUGH FELLOW TO BE SURE,BUT AS WE SPORTS FANS KNOW ALL TOO WELL,YOU CAN'T FIRE THE TEAM,SO THE USUAL CASUALTY IS THE COACH...I WAS IN MONTREAL FOR THE AFTERNOON YESTERDAY,AND THERE WAS QUITE THE BUZZ AROUND TOWN FOR SURE,BUT BOB GAINEY,WHO I HAVE THE UTMOST RESPECT FOR,WILL BRING INTO THE ROOM A TREMENDOUS PRESENCE AND ACCOUNTABILITY FOR SURE... AN INCREDIBLE CAPTAIN IN HIS TIME,AND MORE IMPORTANTLY,A GOOD MAN,WHO HAS SUFFERED PERSONAL TRAGEDIES OVER THE YEARS....
I'M NOT SAYING THIS WILL TRANSLATE INTO A COMPLETE TURNAROUND,ALTHOUGH I'M HOPING ...BUT IT SEEMS MOST THINK IT WAS THE RIGHT MOVE TO MAKE AT THIS TIME...
HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE I GUESS......THEY DID MANAGE TO OUTLAST EDMONTON TONIGHT IN O.T. ...ONE DOWN,ABOUT 15 TO GO I THINK...

Have you ever watched a Cubs night game at Wrigley Field?  If you have, you've noticed that the field isn't as bright as a lot of the more modern stadiums are...there are a lot of 'shadows' on the field of play...I don't know Montreal's home ice, but there were 'shadows'...it was darker around the goalie and the top half of the rink...I flipped between the 2 games (Hawks were on locally) and it wasn't the TV (55" widescreen HD)...I was just making an observation...
