Wow if this was the NBA i’d think they paid the Islanders to suck on purpose to make Crosby look good…. oh wait, is Bettman that much better than David Stern?

Part of the thing here is that, after the 2/2/11 debacle, RDP would be a distraction. That awful clip would be shown endlessly. The NYI have been under performing horribly most of the season. Saturday night was just the worst. Time for the rest of the team to man up and, BTW, Anders is a pretty good goalie. I have a feeling that Sid’s in for an unpleasant surprise.

Look on the bright side, his name might one day be the answer to a trivia question like, “Who was the opposing goalie when Crosby scored 4 goals in his triumphant return to NHL action after being sidelined for 10 months with a concussion?”

After what happened to DiPietro during his last marquee matchup with the Penguins, I guess I don’t blame the Isles for wanting to avoid having him go out and do something equally stupid.
