This fan base knows how to get things done. I’d love to see it.
The top 3 numbers retired are no brainers but after those how Tonelli is excluded mystifies me.
New management is doing everything right.
Here's their next project.
Also, in addition to all great things he did for the Isles he was the MVP of the Canada Cup tournament in 1984 after an incredible gritty never-say-die performance.Young Isles fans should go back and see some big Isles goals throughout history and #27 was always around.....I can't recall an Islander with a better motor ever and the Long Island fans loved the guy..
If you’re still concerned with getting back at Tavares, and honestly f*** that guy, win the god damn cup.I love Butch...but if he wore #92 would anybody really be calling for his retirement of a number now? The answer is obviously no. Retiring his number to get at Tavares (who doesn't care btw), is petty and quite frankly embarrassing for Butch. Tavares left the team and we're doing better than we have in decades. Get. Over. It.
If you’re still concerned with getting back at Tavares, and honestly **** that guy, win the god damn cup.
You are moron if you don't think Goring deserves to be in rafters.
Goring #91 should be hoisted in the new Belmont Arena. And no, don't be petty, it shouldn't be against Toronto.
He is part of the fabric of the Islanders. He is the guy that solidified the dynasty. He was a coach in the during the darkest days of the club. He went from fumbling sentences with Howie, to a great color guy with Brendan Burke.
**** Tonelli. He never raised his head until the latest ownership group brought everyone on board.
