HOW DOES RAY BENNETT STILL HAVE A JOB???? Worst PP in the NHL and the schmuck still has a job. Explain that to me
Believing in this roster is the problem. Palat sucks. Duclair sucks.
Lee sucks. Palat sucks. Duclair sucks.
Hopefully Roy will find another to team / he's a good hockey man ! I don't like DeBoer !
You hired a coach who has a reputation for playing veterans. How many "veterans" are you gonna have next year?
Deboer has track record of losing with win now teams and our gm thinks he has been a successful coach
The problem is that Darche promised Long Island fans and the owner that a rebuild wasn't necessary and that a few additions would quickly turn the team into a competitive one. Despite the personnel changes, he realizes he's on the verge of missing his goal of making the playoffs, and so he changes coaches, thinking that will solve the situation. I don't believe such a change is the solution, especially considering that Coach DeBoer left his last job after publicly criticizing his goalie. I'm eager to see what happens next.
Being a "Canadiens" fan, because of Patrick Roy, i had a lots of interest about the "NY Islanders", but not anymore.
A real JERK and no empathy for humans Darche. A real JERK
I never liked you Darche as a player with the Montreal Canadien and what you did the Patrick Roy…
I like the move, Roy’s lost the room, team was very inconsistent, surrendered too many late goals tied late in the third, always played down to lower competition, didn’t like his treatment of duclair considering there were other players more deserving of being a healthy scratch, trailing multiple goals early on, without sorokin were competing for the lottery, 2nd in the league of allowing high danger shots. With Deboer your getting an experienced coach who will give this team the type of structure we haven’t had since trotz, to the people saying “he’s never won a cup” remember trotz never even got passed a second round until he won the cup with Washington. Paul Maurice just won his 1st 2 cups. Deboer is also 9-0 in game 7s. With the right roster moves in the offseason will be a real contender.
Getting Romy and Eklund would be huge
Agree 100 percent bull crap he didn't deserve this did a good job
Word is roy didn't have much structure roy likes an offensive style , this team is built for a defensive structure
Did anyone actually watch the last 6 games. The team literally had no structure whatsoever in there own zone. It was like watching beer league. Thats why he was fired
Total shocker!
Isles need a different beat reporter.
Sucks
It would be poetic justice if Patrick Roy replaced Craig Berube as head coach of the Leafs and Roy leads them to win the Stanley Cup!
What is Keith Pelley waiting for?!
Nothing will change until they start moving on from this aging core : Lee, Pulock, Pelech, Mayfield, Duclair is a bad contract, they actually got older with the deadline additions, time to start cleaning house. Nothing wrong with a rebuild. This core will not win anything.
DeBoer last three to four years in every team , what will make this different? Either he gets tired of the players get tired of him. A reporter needs to ask him why this will be different.
I think overall this team preformed far beyond their realistic capabilities on the back of a vezina finalist (possible winner) and a phenom rookie dman. That does not fix the personnel issues tho. This team has played under capabilities lately but not that far below their realistic capabilities. Roy was not the person who put them in this position on the bridge of the playoffs because as we have all seen this whole season that this team is beyond putrid in their own zone and yes that is absolutely on the players that darche inherited but that is also on Roy and the guys behind the bench as well. Their defensive system under Roy was horrid and their powerplay has made absolutely no strides either. With all that I just said I still think that dumping Roy for deboer with 4 games left in the regular season in an attempt to squeak in the playoffs and play Carolina is absolutely beyond stupid and rash. We made such strides in a positive direction this year amongst all the shortcomings of this team you just have to be happy with whatever the final result is and not do something stupid like this.
Islanders are going to destroy what they have with Schaefer, this team has to get younger, keep trying to beat this dead horse of a team whether it is trading futures for veterans, or bringing in a veteran coach to try and jump start it, this is how you ruin what you have with Schaefer and make him want to leave when he is 25 and this team is in the gutter
The Islanders need a rebuild. Younger, faster, more physical, better scorers.
Wow what a crock by the GM. If he thinks this roster is good then the Islanders are in a lot more trouble. This roster is soft, old, and slow. Not a cup contender.
