When the Islanders play the Capitals at home, it’s always one of my favorite games to attend. Consider me a closet Ovie fan – I have yet to break down and get a red number eight sweater, but I will… Continue Reading
How about the Islanders as of late? Aside from injuries that continue to mount (Eaton – done for the year, Nielsen – groin, and DiPietro – mystery strain) the Islanders are playing pretty good hockey, (8-2-1 over the last 11).… Continue Reading
Step right up folks, men, women and children of all ages – give the wheel a spin. Everyone is a winner! Round and round she goes, where it stops nobody knows – injuries for everyone! Ok, ok – before we… Continue Reading
