Next Show – Dec 17th at 9PM

This will be the last show for 2008.  We will recap that year that was, and have our New Year’s Resolutions for 2009.  After last week’s debacle, it should make for an interesting show.  Tune us in, won’t ya?

Devils – Isles 1/18/09 Matinee

Pregame musings:
 

Lots of Red/Black in the building.  Great opportunity for folks from the Garden state to spend the $11.00 each way in tolls to visit Uniondale
Roloson should be in the nets today.  Would expect Marrty B as well.  However,it is still good motivation for Danis to play against his old mates.
8-2-1in 11 – we all [...]

Live blog at the Devs – Isles Game

Will be blogging live at the game this afternoon.  I will update after each period, as well as before the start of the game too.
 
Also – here is a link to a movie called Superfan – a film made by my friend Mike Castro, about an obsessed Islander fan.  I saw the premier last night [...]

Wow – Detroit Game and Garth Comments

It figures that the one game I miss – I do not get to see the best game that they have played in years and years and years.
Just my luck.
There was just about NO issues with any aspect of the team….
There has been a lot of coverage on it – I will let that speak [...]

Jackets – Isles 12/29/09

Pregame
—————————–
The last home game of 2009 – will the Isles snag two points from the visitors from Ohio?
Roloson in net tonight – Steve Mason in nets for the visitors. The Jackets come in with the ame record as the Isles – and are fresh off a 1-0 win against the Red Wings in OT.

Live Blog – Tampa – Islanders Dec 21, 2009

Merry Christmas folks!
Nothing new at warmups.  Same gus on the ice – with Rollie in net this evening.
Two teams with identical points – both struggling to say the least.  One of these teams will gain some momentum.  Which will it be?
My player to watch:  Trent Hunter.  After losing the nine game pont scoring streak, he [...]

Monday? What about Monday

I completely forgot about that game.
Excellent move by Gordon to keep the guys basically off the ice on Tuesday, and get them focused at the pre-game skate.  This team played as a unit and threw their bodies at the pucks thrown in, won a great deal of the battles on the puck, and proved to [...]

Regarding Monday

My mother would say:
If you don’t have anything nice to say about something, don’t say anything at all…
Other than nice for Jesse to get a goal – that’s about it.
On to the Rangers tonight!  Big two games – move the bad game away – and concentrating on stealing two points from the Blueshirts, like they [...]

New column up

Just updating things. Over at our Blogger BONY site, we have been doing game recaps, etc including a debut from our lurking Buffalo contingent with a classic name. You can catch me, Hasan and Bri over there for the time being.
We just did a new piece on the cool Minny 3rd jerseys. Just purchased a [...]

Don’t look ahead – focus on tonight

Yes – there are two big games coming up this weekend, against the big Bad (yea, right) Rangers…
But tonight is a different focus.  Florida is a team that in the past, gives the Islanders fits.  I just do not know what it is – but tonight has to be an established forecheck and physical match [...]

Important Announcement: Catch Us On Blogger

As many of you are aware, we’ve been having server issues over here. For the time being, we are back on Blogger, over at the original Battle location. Whether we stay remains to be seen. Right now, it’s just easier for me and Hasan to post our stories over on Blogger, which still has our [...]
