NY Islanders Sale Talk Part II

[lorwood]

I'm checking this thread religiously in hope of something being announce. Probably setting myself up for a big letdown.

Your an Islander fan, how big of a letdown could it be?

What *isn't* a let-down?

Twitter has been surprisingly quiet on this front.

It's still technically "AFTER" the Stanley Cup Finals. Parade is today, so maybe tomorrow we can start nitpicking. I'd be thrilled if it happens before the start of next season, don't really care when (June, July, August or start of Sept).

I think they were waiting for the season finale of Game of Thrones

Which was nuts BTW.


Greg Cronin as assistant coach btw.

Source says sale talks won't affect #Isles plans to add talent - as getting Halak proved. Barroway had nothing to do with Halak.

The sale talks had no affect, but moving to Brooklyn next year has an affect. Can't go to Brooklyn with the 5th worst team in the NHL.

Well that would be a great silver lining if this team is not sold.

Staple just tweeted Doug Weight named assistant GM (remains as an assistant coach)..

Thought he already was assistant GM.

I seem to remember reading Weight saying he wanted to be home more with his family and spend less time on the road. Surprised if he remains assistant coach.

No, he was advisor to the GM. His best advice all year was, "Hey Garth, why don't you try a Blonde AND a Brunette instead of 2 Blondes."

Got ya.

Now Friedman say's Bob Corkum was named as an assistant coach as well.

 

[IslesFanatic]

So assistants now are Weight, Cronin, and Corkum. I guess one will be up top.

Corkum shockingly is a University of Maine alumni.
