Correction: they knew how to kill a penalty three seasons ago.

Good effort, nice firsts but the same problems. If this team can't kill a penalty or score on the powerplay, they will be right where they were last season (and the season before that and the season before that).

SHABBA RANKS

First NHL game ✅
First NHL point ✅

Matthew Schaefer picks up the assist for his first point! #NHLFaceOff

Islanders PK picking up right where they left off last year and the year before. They'll never kill a penalty ever again.

Or this guy

I can’t believe these guys are all on the Islanders broadcast team this year.

If they've got you angry with tamale vendors, museum displays and trans kids, you are their perfect dumbass and whatnot.

TODAY'S THE DAY‼️

2025 first overall pick Matthew Schaefer (18 years, 34 days) will make history when he takes the ice tonight! #NHLFaceOff

So help me, I am excited for a new Islanders season to begin tonight. Might be fun, might be terrible but it will be different. This video also helped. www.youtube.com/watch?v=v1OC...

This week, I finally watched “Eyes of Wakanda” and enjoyed it very much. The rare show I wish had more episodes. “Marvel Zombies,” not so much. That entire corner of the Marvel Universe is just nihlism and torture for the sake of it. We’ve asked “What If…Zombies?” 100 times and know the answer. Lame

look, if it ain’t broke…

Was supposed to go to NY Comic Con today with a buddy who had an extra pass. Instead, because of a pinched nerve and intense leg pain for the last week and a half, I’ll be at an orthopedist and starting physical therapy. Really sucks, man.

Episode 2 of On The Island drops Friday Night at 7PM.

Sure you can sign a Kyle Connor or Jack Eichel for eight years and between $12 and $13.5 million per, or a Connor McDavid for two years at $12 million per but have you ever considered taking on five years of Pierre Engvall at a mere $3 million per? That's a savings you can't pass up!

This is a joke. No Van Halen song in any era has ever made a lick of sense and it doesn't fuckin matter.

you'll never guess what's inside

Went to put on the opening NHL games and was reminded that regular ESPN now exists on a different pricing plan rolled out to accomodate WWE’s spite PPVs. Nice job taking hockey too, keeping America’s least-watched sport away from prying eyes.
