GOODLUCK MONDAY PICKS

P.A. Parenteau was a HUGE loss for the Isles for a couple of reasons. One, the guy is productive in the scoring column. Look at what he's done so far in Colorado with a depleted Avs roster. Second, he afforded the Isles roster last year of having two dominant scoring lines. Right now, the Isles only have one scoring line and when you have a physical team like Philly, you throw bodies on Taveres and play a physical game. The Isles might be a year more experienced but experience doesn't always equate to scoring or wins.....I like your thoughts, just my 2 cents.

The Isles have one of the worst fans in the NHL. In fact, theyre second to last in the NHL in attendance. Phoenix is the worst. Columbus, Anaheim, Winnipeg and Florida are right there with them. The last time the Isles bandwagoning fans showed any support was when Billy Smith was between the pipes.
