Don't need to click on teh link. I assume you are talking about the comment that Wang is believed to have given a long term extension to Garth when he was on his way out the door.

Reportedly with another 5 years on his contract. SMH. Why bother trying to be good at your job if you're locked in for 10 years? In year 9, try your ass off. 1-8, not so much.

And the damn shame is that with everything that went wrong this season: the terrible start, the 3 goalie fiasco, the anemic power play, the number of leads lost late, inability to win shootouts, the blowout losses, despite all of that we were just one fucking point out of the playoffs.

And 6-0 without JT in the lineup. Just sayin.

AND freakin Edmonton has a home playoff series. When's the last time the Isles had one of those?
Just a disgrace what this clown hasn't managed to do in 10 years with a handful of top 5 picks.

I assume this means that Garth is likely to return as well.

I like Dougie, but a couple concerns -
The absolute no show and blowouts that occurred on his watch.
The PP that was just beyond pathetic.

The team played well for Weight -- one of the best records in the NHL over the 2nd half of the season, but there are major reasons for concern. I guess if keeping Weight makes it more likely that we can re-sign Tavares, I can get on board with that, although I would feel a lot better about this move if we brought in a new GM who gave Dougie a vote of confidence.

According to SNY and Bob McKenzie of TSN, looks like Elmont, the Belmont area, is the leading candidate for a new arena? Apparently the owners of the Mets, Dolan, and the governor are all on board?

I am confuse. Is the Belmont race track no longer there? Doesn't look like there's any room to build diddly shit around that area.
