I figured as much. Given the standings.

Fabbro also carries a $2.5M contract, I don't think the Isles were fitting that even if they were at the front of the waiver order to put in a claim

Did everyone buy their playoff tickets?

Best thing for this team is to miss the playoffs and trade Nelson and Palms and get a new GM.

I’m a little surprised Lou did not hire Oates to replace Lane.

He did some coaching for the Devils, so Lou knows his work. Maybe he's better at coaching players' skills than coaching on ice strategy and dealing with the media? That's just me guessing, I don't really know.

This could be John. I do think Oates deserves another shot somewhere.

He seemingly has a nice business doing the skill stuff for NHL'ers. He may not have an interest in having a boss and the media to answer to on a daily basis. I'm sure he's doing well with the training.

Yup, that makes sense. It's got to be a lot less stressful just teaching the skill stuff.

Hey why not? I love a good hard kick in the balls!

I am loveing 7’s game more and more every game. He’s getting comfortable with the NHL ice surface and you can see his confidence building.

Holmy looks real good.

Pulock with multiple turnovers and Mayfield back to his stupid sh!t.

The PK continues its putrid play

Special teams are putrid! 5v5 they are good.

I like it !!!!!

How the (frank) is that not a trip on McJesus before he scores!

Isles doing way too much 'admiring' on defense.

Lee makes the game interesting.

Lee again!

Lee again!

He sucks! Too old and way to slow!
