@JBoatwater I do give a lot of blame to Roy for not giving him a fair shake. I just don’t think he’d be replicating his Minnesota numbers with the Islanders considering the roster they have
Just a friendly reminder to isles fans moaning about Shabanov again that 5 of his 8 goals have been assisted by either Kaprizov or Hughes and 4 of his 5 assists have been on Kaprizov or Hughes goals.
When the Islanders get a Kaprizov and Hughes then we can be upset
Further to this, I was told that the Isles shopped Shabanov at the deadline, and there were no takers. So again, good on him for taking advantage, adapting more to the NHL game and making stronger decisions on the ice to earn playing time.
We’ve lost the plot fellas.
Next thing you know we’ll be giving in to the boomers who have been begging for the ice girls to come back so they can get their one chub a week drunk off $18 Heinekens.
Some greatness right there.
