  1. I hope riley is alright. You never wanna see that on the ice. Clean hit no bad intent. Just a fluke injury. But anyway, they played with a sense of pride. Like, they were not going to be embarrassed. And that is to be commended. As of what to do, maybe we checked the waiver market and bring up some kids. That's how we got riley in the first place!

  2. Well as we all seen Barzel not in the line up showed that he is a non factor. Please don't get me started on Adam Pellech. If Reilly is out that's a big hit havent heard anything as yet or maybe I missed it. Im surprised there aren't more, Casey took a shot that hobbled him. Romanov is another that I figured would be out. But lets remember it was Buffalo and how Lindy Ruff keeps getting coaching jobs is really beyond me I just don't get it.

  3. HA HA louzer is getting his ass kicked in the injury dept. I hope this heightens his demise level. Out of date pr-ick knew injuries happen and left no room to do shit except call up marginal ahl'ers while scoring the waiver wire hoping someone he can fit under cap is out there. And with 3, 11, and 13 out isles have $16 mill. of ir/ltir cap space if louzer wants to take a stab at say petterson if he can dump 27 or 44 to do it. And calling up dufour or maggio who can't light it up in ahl probably isn't happening so no hope in b'port even tho one of both should at least get a shot at nhl since there is nothing else louzer can do. Foudy, gauthier aren't the answers.
    And isles managed to score three games worth of goals in win over sabres as the $12 mill. passengers 27 and 44 scored 2 g and an a. Maybe isles need their 'top' guys by isle standards out of the line-up to get the passengers to do some scoring. Of course that isn't sustainable long term.
    This old creaky weak team is breaking down already and may force changes that need to be made if it bottoms out. I hope that means showing louzer the door. F him and his old style ways.
