Islanders Esoteric #8-08 or #2804

This will be kind of abbreviated. I hate doing the esoteric after a loss and especially if that loss is the Rangers.

A few significant milesones during this game for two players breaking into the top 100 on the all-time Islanders tally card.

PARK breaks the top 100 with his 37th Assist tied with Billy Carroll.

COMRIE breaks the top 100 in all-time Points. His 53 Points ties him with Kip Miller and Pat Price at #98th overall.

Congrats!!!

Let's see what else the Magic Esoteric Spreadsheet tells me.....

Oh, here's one: SKINNER is now the 427th player to lace up skates and play for the Islanders.

Congrats to Jon Sim for reaching the 10GP milestone as an Islander. I know it's not much of a milestone but after losing him in game #2 last season, I think it is significant.

STREIT & OKPOSO both are tied with 3 Goals.

STREIT, STREIT and more STREIT...He seems to be the most successful player on the ice right now. He is the 92nd player ever to score a shorthanded goal with us (tied with 37 others)

** ON PACE **
OKPOSO on pace for 30 Points
STREIT on pace for 30 Goals, 41 Assists and 71.8 Points
WEIGHT on pace for 51.3 Assists
COMRIE on pace for 20G/20A/40Pts

** I wanna be like Smitty or Danny? Lorenz that is **

MCDONALD passes Terreri on the all-time minutes played rankings at #25th with his
459th Minute Played. He also moves into the #25th spot in Goals Against breaking a tie with Danny Lorenz. He is also tied with both Terreri and Lorenz in Games Played with 8GP.

** TAVARES WATCH **
Currently, as of the morning of 29 October, we are in sole possession and 48.2% share of the draft lottery balls in the Tavares sweepstakes. We are in 30th place with our mighty 4 points. Atlanta, Columbus and Phoenix are all competing to get the services of the next Crosby.
