Wow! Big Joe Finley is becoming a much better fighter and not leading with his chin any more as he did in his first professional fight. Actually, I would say that Finley did pretty well in this fight. Brandon Prust was in 20 fights last season and has been in 6 already this season, so I tip my hat to the former fighting Sioux defenseman Joe Finley.

Do you believe in miracles? On the 33rd anniversary of the Miracle on Ice, the Islanders made a transaction that got the hockey world buzzing. The team has officially placed goaltender Rick DiPietro on waivers, as seen on the team's site.
Assuming DiPietro clears waivers without a team claiming him - let's be honest, it'd take a miracle larger than the Miracle on...

UNIONDALE, N.Y. — Oft-injured goalie Rick DiPietro has been placed on waivers by the New York Islanders and will likely be headed to the minors once he clears, as expected.
The Islanders announced the move Friday, one day after they defeated the Canadiens in Montreal. New York will next play at the Buffalo Sabres on Saturday before returning home to face Carolina on Sunday.

More to come..the Islanders are up to something with this. Sending Dipietro to the AHL only removes $900,000 of his cap hit under the new CBA rules. Also doesn't that defeat the purpose of the Tim Thomas paper acquisition? What team would WILLFULLY choose to have about $9 million in dead cap space tied up in goalies who won't be playing for them? Waiving DiPietro negates...

from Cam Cole of the Vancouver Sun,
It is a given that the first wave of ridicule in the wake of Friday's news that the New York Islanders had placed Rick DiPietro on waivers would wash over the hapless 31-year-old goaltender, no doubt inflicting a torn knee ligament, assuming they haven't all been removed and sent to the Smithsonian.
But if there's a God, the...

...geez, now ex-Rangers might not play in this game? What the hell's going on around here?
...although, Prust is a gamer and I seriously doubt he's going to miss an Original Six match-up against his former team.

Not exactly a very good night for any of the New York Islander prospects in action on Thursday evening but one New York Ranger prospect escaped the press box and got to play. The OHL gets all the attention as that was where all the prospect action took place.

The Islanders enjoyed a day off in Montreal yesterday. Had it been coach Scott Gordon they would have been watching video of what went wrong these last few games all day long. But Jack Capuano isnât Scott Gordon and he has taken on a decidedly easier approach with his team than in the past. Maybe itâs the weight loss.
Even during the worst game in Islanders history...
