According to Yahoo! Sports, "Isles GM Garth Snow let it be known recently that backup goalie Wade Dubielewicz had rejected the team’s most recent contract offer, making it likely the organization will cut ties with the popular 'Dubie' when he becomes an unrestricted free agent July 1. The Isles either will sign another free agent backup or go with minor-leaguer Joey MacDonald, who has a one-way NHL contract after spending practically all of last season with AHL Bridgeport." Is this the right move? I have a feeling it will make a lot of hockey fans on Long Island quite unhappy.

Seriously does any Islander fan care if he goes? He had a hot moment and doesn't seem so hot anymore. I;m curious if islander fans have grown attached.

Letting Dubie go is an idiotic move...hes a proven backup and MacDonald isnt. With the way things are going the best move is to completely clean out the organization, fire Nolan, fire Snow, make Wang sell the team and start over from scratch. The Islanders are a walking disaster, clinging to memories of a once brilliant organization.

so you think he's definitely worth it.
i'm not sure if wang can be made to sell the team, though.

I was joking...or wishing...I dont know the difference anymore

I know what you mean, how you feel - you want changes but things never change when it's the same guy/corporation sitting in the top seat making the same stupid decisions.

Wilson would make a great coach for Toronto...he didnt work out in San Jose, but it wasnt the right fit for him or them...hes a good coach.

I would be very excited to get Wilson - we'll find out by tomorrow.
