Nice
Coulson’s a steal.
Although at this point, I’m starting to think value is overrated when it comes to the Islanders. We need to pay someone more so we don’t have to carry these damn mules!
Don't make me bring out the Silky.

I saw in Hornick's post the other day
that he’s like 12th overall (C & RW included).
NY Islanders, just one irrational free agent signing away from contention!

I doubt it...I think that was a Vancouver newspaper and we ran with it here
I’m not sure how many people would realize it…don’t waste that kind of money on a joke!

On the other hand, you would become LHH legend
And, I mean, that’s gotta be worth something, surely?

Why do you say this? It would be a joke...although Keith is right, I'm not sure how many people would really get it.
Although any lighthouse readers would stop me and understand it lol
Every LHH person would get it, probably even Moulson if he saw it.
It would be funny to say the least and put a smile on the face of anyone that sees it. Moulstache would also be a good name for his jersey. That’s actually a decent idea, give a nickname on a jersey with their real number like:
91=JT or Chosen One or The One
51=The Frans or Da Frans or Great Dane
40=Grabs or Flash or Gremlin
3=Hammer
15=PAP or Papfister
etc.
What do you mean they won 4 cups in a row? Is that possible?
i would totally get hammer
if i had the money….

1979-80

May 24, 1980: Tonelli to Nystrom. At long last, the steady build of the New York Islanders from expansion doormat to surprise semifinalist to annual contender reaches the promised land: Buoyed by a late season trade for Butch Goring that gave the team the depth up the middle GM Bill Torrey had been seeking, the Islanders knock off the Philadelphia Flyers in six games.
The victory justified the faith in coach Al Arbour who guided them from their second season to their first Stanley Cup seven seasons later. The Islanders would not be the first expansion team to win the Stanley Cup, but they would be the only one capable of a dynasty.
1980-81

May 21, 1981: This time it was much easier. After falling to "only" 91 points in the 1979-80 season, the Islanders returned to their division title tradition, piling up 110 points -- a whole 13 points over second-place Philadelphia.
Between the quarterfinals (where they beat the upstart Oilers in six games) and the finals, the Islanders reeled off eight consecutive wins -- with a four-game sweep of archrival Rangers in between. As they defeated the Minnesota North Stars in five games for their second Cup, their goal difference in the final was a combined +10.
1981-82

May 16, 1982: Another year, another landslide title. The Islanders won the Patrick Division by a whopping 26 points over the second-place Rangers, and were seven points clear of their nearest competition for the President's Trophy, the still-not-quite-ripe Edmonton Oilers.
A first-round scare against the Pittsburgh Penguins turned in the Isles' favor thanks to John Tonelli's heroics, and a true dynasty was on its way: Past the Rangers in six games, then an eight-game sweep of the Quebec Nordiques and Vancouver Canucks to run away with the Stanley Cup.
1982-83
Source: Uploaded by user via NYIslanders on Pinterest
May 17, 1983: Not so fast, whipper-snappers. The Edmonton Oilers' steadily rising challenge for league supremacy took them all the way to the finals for the first time, where the New York Islanders summarily dispatched them in a four-game sweep. For the Islanders, the Dynasty was secured. For the Oilers, it was a powerful lesson in where talent ends and the demands of playoff hockey begin.
Four years, four Cups, 16 consecutive playoff series wins (a record that would grow to 19 until the rematch with the Oilers the following year). Mike Bossy scored 60 goals yet again, and Wayne Gretzky became acquainted with Billy Smith's crease.
