@NYIFANCENTRAL@AGrossNewsday Now you're cherry picking individual Tuesday night games in October from an arena that was falling apart? And on top of that. you're still wrong. Team has drawn more fans and have had a higher % capacity for all UBS seasons when compared to any full Barclays year. Stop it.
@NYIFANCENTRAL@AGrossNewsday Wait, a video from a sold out playoff game played at Barclays a decade ago proves that the majority of Isles fans live in NYC? Do me a favor, park yourself outside the UBS LIRR train station opening night and tell me if more people go eastbound or westbound after the game.
@NYIFANCENTRAL@AGrossNewsday In a week that includes the draft, free agency and big trades, this is what you are focusing on? Aside from being pretty clearly false, it makes our "fan central" look like tin foil hat wearing fools.
@Logan394012@stefen_rosner Totally agree the cap situation for the upcoming year is awful. Assuming no dumb overpays, it is a one year issue. Cap projected to go up $10M and about $20M in contracts coming off the books.
@finsandisles@philzfactz What was your boy's Lou favorite line? "If you have time, you use it". Especially if you agree they should ultimately be selling off assets for futures.
@finsandisles@philzfactz He came in to rebuild/retool. Adding younger players or draft capital takes time. And I'd argue the Dobson trade was the biggest move Isles have made in years.
Not to mention the off ice changes and overall fan experience. Open prospect camp, On the Island series, etc.
@finsandisles@philzfactz Well, you are right there. Who cares that one was GM for 7 years and the other for 7 months? ๐ I'm more about quality than quantity. Not to mention Darche took over an organization desperate for a rebuild, which Lou should have done as soon as Trotz was out.
@dcdurkel@AlbaneseLaura Not true. Even if he's a FL resident he paid a lot of NY income taxes due to playing in the state half the season. Won't have that issue playing in TX.
