SIDEBAR!
Okay, so I feel bad for the Islanders, I really do. Voted Most Amazing General Manager In The World, Garth Snow constructed a team that he really thought would contend in the playoffs. Alas, Ricky DiPietro can’t get those damn birds to stop circling his head (with his latest blow coming courtasy of everyone’s favorite NHLer Sean Avery), and the Isles, unfortunately, have no backup goaltending to speak of. Poo. My heart goes out to you, Islander fans.
But back to the task at hand — talking about the sheer awesomeness of David Clarkson. Why hasn’t this guy made the team sooner? He’s purely amazing.

So, does he get his own section now? Or is that only for Lukowich?

How are they going to send Him down when Gio comes back? He has proven that He’s ready, and I Myself am digging Him, but they are cap strapped, so who goes down instead? Cam, Rupp, Rass, or Jersey Jim?

My vote would go to Cam. Don’t get me wrong, I like Cam, I just think he is the least of a scoring threat, so he could use the practice in the minors. Once the playoffs start, the cap won’t matter, so they can rotate all of the above. I think the good thing though, is that it creates competition, so hopefully they all step it up and make it a really tough decision (not that it isn’t already).
