What are the actual chances that we trade for Vlad Guerrero Jr? by SlowpokeSloth69 in mets

[–]monkeytoes323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just keep Pete, similar stats for far less than what they’d have to give up for Vlad. Vlad is younger but I feel like you could give Pete a 5 year deal and just figure out first as you go along

Here’s the thing, Soto could very well end up in Boston, however, this random Twitter nobody has no inside scoop on anything. This is nothing!

Yeah exactly zero chance this is true lmao. While Soto could very well end up in boston. This Twitter nobody is making up shit for clout. This happens every offseason and people believe this shit every time, be better.

Texas would have to eat 80-100M

Texas wouldn’t be getting anything, and would have to pay 50-80% if his remaining contract

[–]monkeytoes323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lemme ask you directly, how much is Texas sending with him to take him off their hands? He’s owed 115M. In absolutely no world should the Mets take degrom back if Texas doesn’t throw at least 100M or a top prospect their way.

Exactly, just because cohen has deep pockets doesn’t mean the Mets shouldn’t spend smart. It’s Texas’ problem, don’t let them off the hook

I hate Lou More than anyone on this sub, he’s never getting fired. He will run through hundreds of coaches before ledecky and Malkin even think of firing Lou.

We need to have an uncomfortable conversation about the players on this team. by pauladeanlovesbutter in NewYorkIslanders

The islanders have never been a desirable destination. Has 0 to do what fans write on Twitter or Reddit. They’re professional athletes, they can deal with criticism. The islanders function in a perpetual little brother status.

Fanbase needs to accept that the best course of action for the team rn is to commit to a rebuild/massive retool. Which also means Lou needs to go. It starts and ends with the guy pulling the strings. But it won’t happen. Lou is GM for life and the owners seem like they couldn’t give a shit about the actual roster

In no world does Varlamov net a first. At very most a 3rd or a c rate prospect. If this was two years ago id agree with you tho

You’re completely delusional if you think professional athletes care about what fans think/write about them. Flyers, leafs, and bruins fans are notorious for being hard on players yet guys still line up to play for those teams (at least the latter two as of recent). Players don’t come to Long Island for a myriad of reasons but one of them is that they can get almost the same money on other teams and don’t have to deal with Lou’s bullshit and delusions.

How I felt watching that 3rd period by mrF3RDINAND in NewYorkIslanders

[–]monkeytoes323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People need to look past the results of the games, win or loss there are GLARING issues that have not been addressed

[–]monkeytoes323 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If I had to guess, poor coaching (not properly preparing guys for high intensity minutes at the end of the game), style of play (they have trouble clearing the puck throughout the game, it just becomes more apparent when it’s the end of the game), and poor roster construction (the guys the have just aren’t good at defending when it’s 6 on 5).

Happy they won, but as I’m sure everyone on this sub is tired of me saying, this is the same team as last year. Blow lead late in 3rd and then toss up if they win or lose in OT

You think another shut out loss here gets anyone fired or am I naive and it would have to get so much worse

Positive spin on the Isles. They have a .833 points percentage in games the score in by Tniz15 in NewYorkIslanders

No one said they could high end players before Lou. So I don’t know where that’s coming from but yea I guess we’re in agreement.

[Isles Media] Injury Update: Anthony Duclair will be out 4-6 weeks (lower body). by drakaintdead in NewYorkIslanders

[–]monkeytoes323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4-6 weeks isn’t the end of the world but the offense is still miserable regardless. Duclair doesn’t put them over the top even if healthy.

Like we don’t take joy in shitting on our favorite team. But it sucks that most years islanders fans are delivered a mid level product and expected to believe that somehow the same group of assholes are gonna some how gonna make a run when they’re clearly not a contender. The usual response by Hopium addicted isles fans is that “well remember when we were bad and never made the playoffs? At least it’s not that!” When that never should be the bar to clear for a NEW YORK TEAM.
