My best memories of Billy Smith was his backing stopping us to four consecutive Stanley Cups.

My favorite memories of Billy Smith was his running the defenseman [myself included] for my PAL rec-league team in 1988-89. I learned more in those six months than I did the rest of my hockey playing career. Bar none, the best coach I ever had! He offered to by me two sticks if his son Cory broke one of mine because he had to borrow it.

Wait... Unless we are doing this until the home opener I think we are actually..

Garth Snow days away from opening night

If there was a picture of one, I'd be posting Chad Johnson. But there isn't...

Love this idea, but...

First game of the season is on Oct 8, today is Sept 11, so counting today, there are 27 days until the season opener.

Islanders first game is on 10/10, so we're actually Kenny Jonsson amount of days until then.

I see, the season doesn't start until the Islanders play. Love it.

Yeah sorry I meant until the ISLES season starts, should have clarified but I figured that was kinda implied...
And yeah I guess I accidentally did the math to the Home opener, not season opener...oops

Since someone already said KJ, I'll put someone else

Well, what other team matters? This is an Islanders forum and the OP is posting Islanders pictures so I think it can be assumed we're talking about Islanders Opening Night for the purposes of this thread.

May he one day become the player we all associate #29 with.

My boy. Loved Andy Sutton, he was far too underrated around the league.
