Greiss is starting.

 

[PK Cronin]

Greiss confirmed starter.

 

[13th Floor]

Ugh. What's wrong with Bailey?

 

[PK Cronin]

Ugh. What's wrong with Bailey?

No word from Staple or Gross yet.

 

[MJF]

Ugh. What's wrong with Bailey?

How much time do you have?

 

[Barzaltrick]

Very happy to see that Lee was named captain. The guy is a gem and 40 goal scorers are VERY hard to come by. We need to sign him to an extension ASAP. I think that 7 years and $49 million would be fair.

As for tonight's game, I smell a barzaltrick a-coming!

 

[enigmatic]

dont have high expectations for the season, but still excited....lets go isles!

 

[BrockLobster]

Bailey back tightness . but playing

Is that 5 assists?

 

[YearlyLottery]

Ugh. What's wrong with Bailey?

He's phoning it in after the contract extension!

 

[YearlyLottery]

No Bailey on the ice for the AM skate. (insert jokes about how you haven't ever noticed him etc.)

He probably texted Tavares for the day off and forgot he is in Toronto now.

 

[Satan'sIsland81]

I still cannot believe Greiss is starting.

 

[Instant]

Greiss confirmed starter.

I was planning on watching this game, but now... Greiss, really? Ugh.

 

[SI90]

Im gonna get goosebumps when I see the “C” on Lee

Good goosebumps or bad goosebumps?

 

[SI90]

Good

We've seen this before. Teams like to get both goalies in early and sometimes prefer to have the start play during the home opener. It's not a big deal.

 

[Cameraguy]

Let’s play some great hockey tonight boys, no more distractions this season and on.

You got a great coach behind you and a GM that knows what he’s doing.

Go Islanders Go!!!!

 

[SI90]

Hockey is back boys!!! So pumped.

 

[doublechili]

Nothing to do with the game but did the default font on this site change or am I just seeing things?

Just seeing things. Might want to get that checked out.

 

[SI90]

Didn’t know where to put this but Smitty back around the team is nice.

 

[doublechili]

"Hey Smitty, can you autograph my can of Budweiser?"

 

[Strummergas]

Didn’t know where to put this but Smitty back around the team is nice.

Oh my god!!!!! You mean the Dyansty guys are going to be at the game???!!!!!!! THAT IS AMAZING!!!!!!

 

[Taswell]

There's like 3 Hurricanes looking for their first NHL goals tonight, and we love to give guys their first goals, so this should be fun.

This is because Lehner was worse than Greiss in camp.
