Make that, very long! The way we see it, the master plan begins with an Alexei Yashin buyout, followed by Smyth getting the captaincy. http://blogs.msg.com/the_maven/

He knows what kind of position the Isles put themselves in by trading for him. Fischler is often wrong though, that is the one thing that bothers me. -------------------- NY Islanders Hockey: Proud of the Orange and Blue

Not just the "you sk" kind... but feedback. You saw how happy logan is with the amount of comments on his blog. Show MSG that the Islander fans are loud and proud. -------------------- NY Islanders 7th Woman JOURNAL UPDATED NOT QUITE AS OFTEN AS POINT BLANK**

sometime between the discovery of fire and the invention of the wheel.

"We're not in a bind at all," Burke said. "I'd say of the 29 teams, we don't talk to Edmonton, so of the 28 other teams, there's plenty of interest in making this predicament go away. I could hang up the phone and solve this."
