Ugh, just so you know -- a good portion of the parking fee goes to other entities like -- the Town of Hempstead.

If there is an event at the coliseum, you pay to park. That is a given.

How much does it cost to park at other venues? especially those in the city? Seriously.

While I will try to attend the draft party at the coliseum this year as I have done whenever possible over the last few years, one thing I just cant seem to get out of my head is the fact that they charge for parking. This is suppose to be a free event. If an event is free, that means its free, and I think that collecting a parking fee sends the wrong message. It just showed that its all about the money and how much more they can make. Seems I wasn't the only one who thought this as witnessed by how many cars turned around at the toll gates. Come on guys, not a class move by any means.

Hey, we drafted Brett Henning in the final round one year; I don't know how many folks were eager to grab him. And one year, MM agreed to acquire the Bruins' last pick because they wanted to leave the draft floor. And don't forget how the 1978 draft ended. As a general rule, I don't like to see any player drafted for any reason other than his perceived ability, but the final round is a little different than the others. Some allowances can be made.

I'll be happy when you put Botta's name in the title on all your sites and call him out every time you see his (or anyone's agenda) surface where it's not the same as any other team. This is more than once that Botta pulled this on Cody Rosen so if Jeff Marek copied it (and anyone knows Botta combined with Ranger die-hard Mike Sielski) on Lafontaine hit-job in WSJ which was a joke because his goal and features are all over Isles website and was included in a 2/22/12 video called 10,000 goals in forty years.

Let's see Botta call out Sather, or Lamoriello's long-shots on draft day or and see if those teams media's will not eat him alive.

Sorry, someone has to go there.

Okay, NYIFan Central. I said it. Happy now? :o)

Plus it's not like Rosen was some complete unknown. He got an invite and took part in the Flyers prospect camp the year before the Islanders drafted him.

He's always been a project, but with Poulin/Nilsson/Koskinen at the AHL level, you would want a project. He'll probably get his chance to start for Clarkson next year with Karpowich and LaVeau both graduating.

Also Cody wasn't a complete unknown commodity....

2012-05-06T03:50:26.946-04:00

Also Cody wasn't a complete unknown commodity. He was invited and took part in the Flyers Prospect Camp the year before he was drafted. Just google Rosen and Flyers.

Good post. You're bang on.

Dee, I have no doubt you are a nice lady, but let's call a spade just that. Unless you put Botta's name to his grudge and agenda vs Snow by making Rosen a target once again because he would never pull that on Dolan's prospect or another team because their media would call him out, you are not doing anything but dancing around the issue.

Sorry, but you are right, it's not about being popular but getting it right.

You came up short.

I'd love to tell you, but I can't. This meeting was for Season Ticket Holders and he decided to give them a little inside information that was not for the press. Maybe I'd email you if you didn't decide to post as anonymous.

the major glaring weakness, imo.

Dee,

Good morning !!!

I think we want it more. We have been playing much better of late and can build on the win the other night. I think if everyone plays with intensity, we got this :-)

That's right... Just as it should be. I thought he was going to win fastest skater yesterday...he was right up there with the fastest, so all is good.

Fingers crossed he puts one in the net tonight!!!!
