#NYC #NYI #Isles A lot of good things, but you can't get no points against Jarry and the slow Penguins or lose like that. Never saw a review on a high stick that long but say goodbye to Drouin for the opener.

#NYC #NYI #isles Schaefer is really good. Pageau/Cizikas just killing them in the middle all night. Holmstrom/Shabanov being wasted with ping pong in middle. Duclair/Tsyplakov same thing with Cizikas in middle.

#NYC #NYI #isles There are X amount of games in a season you have to get points, and played well enough to deserve them. This was one of those games.

Full statement from the Islanders below with quotes from Cheeseman, John Collins and Chris Granger. pic.twitter.com/3birsVTktM
NEWS: AEG Sports COO Kelly Cheeseman has left his position with the LA Kings to become the President of Business Operations and Alternate Governor for the New York Islanders.

NYIFC Comments: I want to sit with this for a while but simply put we saw this to a lesser degree with Kim Stone, who came with fanfare, and left in total silence. Granted Stone was not given the alt governor spot/president of business ops, and was not hired by NYI but Oakview. I do think a move before the season begins (as they signed a medical company as a sponsor on the team jersey, plus other new sponsors) reflects a business doing poorly, and scrambling on all fronts. Having written this Cheeseman was let go of this month by the Kings.
The LA Kings congratulate COO Kelly Cheeseman on being named President of the @NYIslanders and @UBSArena!

We thank him for his 25 years of service to the LA Kings and @AEGworldwide! Wishing him nothing but the best in his new chapter. #GoKingsGo pic.twitter.com/c2kKDQOdRq

Will New York walk the walk? |

Everyone has had their say, thirty one other teams also did. It's time to play hockey, and we see who backs up the words with wins. We know the team downside, the indivdiual players have production issues/defensive issues. Produce or this will be a different roster very soon. Many players are not signed beyond two seasons. Bottom line if they can't win with these players the next group can't do much worse.

#NYC #NYI #isles Every year I project NYI between 2nd-14th unless preseason shows flaws beyond the roster. For the first time in many seasons they have shown those flaws. I'm not optimistic at all but hoping some players step up. No fan of Roy but folks know this.

Now that camp is over, this site will settle back into it's routine of updates, here/X. There will not be a post for every single game or event as it was in preseason. Bsky will get it's updates as it has been lately, substack will be used occasionally. The prospect/historical sites have been updated. The feed/mobile is a work in progess.
