William Morrow+FollowSorokin Reacts to Dobson Trade ShockIslanders fans, what a wild ride! The team’s full rebuild just got real with Noah Dobson shipped to Montreal for Heineman and two first-rounders. Our rock in net, the Ice Czar himself, Ilya Sorokin, didn’t hide his surprise: “That one surprised me… but the cap forced tough calls.” Sorokin’s happy for Romanov’s big extension, but losing Dobson stings. As for those Sorokin trade rumors? He’s not going anywhere—his no-move clause keeps him on Long Island for years. Thoughts on the Dobson deal and Sorokin’s future? #Sports #IceHockey #IslesNation00Share
Jordan Leblanc+FollowSchaefer Shuts Down Panthers Rumors Fast!Isles Nation, how about our new blue-liner, Matty Schaefer? The kid’s not even signed yet and he’s already shutting down Panthers trade talk on Spittin’ Chiclets—straight up said, “I’m an Islander now. Islander for life.” Love that loyalty! After coming back from his collarbone injury, the Coliseum crowd gave him a hero’s welcome at camp. Plus, he’s learning from Mark Giordano—talk about mentorship! Looks like we’ve got a real cornerstone in the making. Anyone else pumped for September? #Sports #IceHockey #IslesNation00Share
Martha Garza+FollowIs Dobson the Key to Isles’ Future?Fellow Isles fans, the big question this offseason: does the front office keep Dobber or hit the reset button? With Noah Dobson’s RFA status and rumors swirling, it feels like his fate could tip us into a full rebuild. He’s been a power play beast, but his D-zone lapses have critics talking. If Lou trades Dobson, is it time to say goodbye to the old core and start fresh with that #1 pick? Curious to hear everyone’s take—would you build around Dobson or cash in now? #IslesNation #NoahDobson #NHLDraft #Sports #IceHockey00Share
Bryce Clark+FollowIslanders Land No. 1 Pick After Wild Draft LotteryPanthers fans are still buzzing after back-to-back Cups, but the real drama just shifted to the NHL Draft. The Isles jumped a wild 10 spots in the lottery to snag the top pick for the first time since the Tavares era! With blue-chip prospects like Schaefer, Misa, and Hagens on the board, who do you think the Isles should take? Misa’s numbers are Kane-level, but Schaefer’s skating has scouts drooling. Let’s hear your takes—who’s the future face of Long Island? #NHLdraft #IslesNation #HockeyTalk #Sports60Share
Martha Garza+FollowIsles Set to Nab Schaefer, Sharks Eye Misa?Looks like the Isles are locked in on blue-liner Matthew Schaefer with the No. 1 pick—GM Darche says he’d be shocked if they’re not picking first. That leaves the Sharks circling Michael Misa, who’s already vibing with San Jose’s young core. Could this be the start of a new rivalry between Schaefer’s D and Misa’s firepower? Draft night’s shaping up to be a big one for both squads! #IslesNation #NHLDraft #SharksTerritory #Sports #IceHockey00Share
Jason Dawson+FollowCould Marner Be the Isles’ Missing Piece?Isles fans, imagine this: Magic Mitch Marner swapping his Leafs blue for Islanders blue in 2025. After a rough season and Lou’s exit, the Isles are loaded with cap space and the #1 draft pick, but scoring is still a huge need. Marner’s playoff woes in Toronto aside, his 100-point season shows he’s elite. Pairing him with Barzy and Horvat could finally give us that top line punch. With Matt Martin’s connection to Marner, could he help seal the deal? What do you think—would Marner make us contenders again? #IslesNation #NHLFreeAgency #MitchMarner #Sports00Share
