Another game? sigh. Maybe that team-coming-off-a-bye-playing-an-already-active-team bump will give the Islanders an edge tonight. Then again, maybe not.
FIG picks go here. Might want to check the lineup before making the call. Look for a preview post on Faxes from Uncle Dale later today featuring some words from us.
- By now you’ve heard that the Islanders called up tough guy Ross Johnston from Bridgeport for their roadtrip. Doug Weight attempts to explain why. Again, personally, I like Doug, but his line about needing the leaders to step up is kinda bullshit.
