Ex-Islanders Update

Ex-Isle Eric Goddard finds himself in Pittsburgh this season in case anyone gets a little too close to Sid the Kid. Last night he threw down with Riley Cote of the Philadelphia Flyers in an furious, entertaining fight via HockeyFights.com.
What’s with the helmets boys? You guys new to this fighting thing? Goddard played for the Flames last year, I would think he would have picked up a thing or two from Jarome Iginla. Iggy and Willie Mitchell showed everyone how it’s done a couple of days ago.
Speaking of former Islanders, I often joke about the “Ex-Islanders All-Star Team” around the league. Bertuzzi, Luongo, Bertuzzi, Redden, Chara…the list goes on and on. Which is why I am so pissed that I did not think of the following idea first – the Former Islander Watch blog. Great site, daily updates on former Isles around the league, a list of the top former Isles on each team (DYK? Only CAR, DAL, and NASH don’t have former Isles on their roster). The blog’s been around since last year – no idea why it took so long for me to find out about it. Check it out…try not to cry too much. Just remember, Mad Mike is gone.
