@DolphinsTalk Now you don't have to shut down the pd. Cant wait to hear your reaction to this.

@DolphinsTalkTom We kind of saw it coming a knew Schaefer wouldnt leave Montreal without his. Go Dolphins!
English

@stefen_rosner @TheElmonters I'd take him for free rather than to get in a bidding war for most of the names that are out there.
English

For those that say no to #Isles taking a flyer on #GoHabsGo F Patrik Laine, curious to know why.
Paying for a rental makes no sense but he could very well be free…has been hurt.
20 goals in 52 games last season, 15 on the PP @TheElmonters

@stefen_rosner @Christoff_77 I think he has a commitment with University of Minnesota next year
English

@Christoff_77 He certainly is. Could see him going the college route.

Eklund is #Isles No. 1 forward prospect.
Bigwaltdiesel@bigwaltdiesel
@stefen_rosner Has clearly passed Eiserman on the depth chart.

@islanders_takes Plus George waiting in the wings. There will be a logjam at LD. Someone needs to go. Aitcheson and a 1st could get you something of quality.
English

#isles
I like Aitcheson and he's improving his skating rapidly. But no, it's far from wrong to consider trading him as part of a package.
Schaefer is unreal. Romanov is songed longterm and so is Pelech. Aitcheson is years away. If you can move him as part of something to get another piece - you have to consider it.
And I think the hate he got for the tournament is unjustified. It was his first time playing man to man and Canada's team defense was atrocious top to bottom. They were as poorly coached as Team USA was.
Philzfacts@philzfactz
@rkatec_ Also is it wrong of me to want to dangle Aitcheson trade bait? This guy is at least 3+ years out right?

What is Dolphins owner Stephen Ross checking on his phone while the team is getting demolished against a 4-10 opponent? (Wrong answers only)

@OmarKelly No. Im in NY and have always needed extra efforts to watch the Dolphins. See less reasons to do that right now.
English

@DolphinsTalk That's fine. Don't want to get that new coach bump too early in the season.
English

This is Ross sending a message to the fans. You can fly your banners and boo. I will fire him on my timeline, not yours.

From The @NFLonPrime TNF pregame show: #Dolphins owner Stephen Ross plans to be patient, despite a slow start for the team and coach Mike McDaniel.

@islanders_takes Blackhawks. 3 this year, 3 in 24, 2 in 23, and 3 in 22
English

@islanders_takes Take Schaefer and don't look back. Also, there is no need to rush things now because next years draft is loaded. You can get 2 forwards that are as good or better than what is there this year without moving assets. Feel good stories don't win cups.
English

#isles
Whoever becomes GM - I don't want them to be sentimental and emotional or craft stories. I want them to get the best players they can get, go full meritocracy, and take advantage of the fact they don't have relationships with these players.
It's wild to me how fans can scream about "country club" mentality and want to eject these emotional connections as damaging to the team's identity and then suddenly want to empty the cupboard of picks and players to draft a guy who likely fell out of the Top 3 in a very weak draft because he's from Long Island.
Pick a lane.
English

@islanders_takes The universe still owes us a franchise player. Maybe it's time to cash in.
English

@islanders_takes Couldn't agree more. While theyneed to move on from aging players, they are also the ones that are most consistent in their jobs. They need to tread carefully when replacing them for younger players.
English

#isles
Really encouraged to see this - but he has to actually deliver. The franchise is in a pretty perilous spot if it doesn't execute a proper retool. Things are better than they were after the deadline.
But there's a lot of work to do.

Lou Lamoriello: "We know we have to do more than what just transpired."
English

@ChrisBottaNHL If you can get him at $5/$5.5 for three years? Do it and then you have a window to groom his replacement. While the trade assets would be nice, I don't think his production is as easily replaced as most think.
English

#Isles QUESTION FOR ALL:
IF Lou Lamoriello re-signs Brock Nelson instead of trading him for a first round pick + another asset (prospect or young player), what would be the contract terms you’d be OK with for Brock (who’s 34 next season)?
For example, 3 years x $6 million per?
No more than 4 years? 2 years? What about annual cap hit?
You name the terms.
Also OK to draw your line in the sand and say NO contract is OK and all you want is a trade of this very good veteran to build for NYI future.
At this time, I’m not open to “trade him and hope to re-sign him in summer.” 😊That doesn’t happen much and is not useful for this survey. As my PR friend says, Hope is not a strategy.
So what’s your contract to keep Brock an Islander?

Time for a @DolphinsTalk #PULSECHECK!
What is ONE WORD to describe how you feel after the Dolphins’ comeback victory over Jacksonville yesterday?
English

@dolphreaky There is no excuse for this, sports are supposed to be fun. Besides, as an Isles fan, it's our job to be mean to Rangers fans. 😁
English

I have to address this. The shear pettiness and disrespect some of you Panthers fans have shown toward me and my family is honestly UNMATCHED.
It’s funny since the panthers have been my second fave team since I moved to FL 10 years ago. I’ve been to many Panthers games, but the rude and inappropriate behavior, comments, and messages toward me are completely out of pocket. I’m so put off.
It’s a fucking game.
