Last night, the Islanders GM garth Snow was the guest at the first Islanders Booster Club meeting for 2006-07.
He rocked the house!
He was candid, funny and brought a lot of information to the table about the team, and the life of a new General Manager. He had some great comments about the team, he is excited about the way they have played of late, and had some interesting insights about some specific issues, especially Nilsson, and Bergenheim, among others.
I will deflect most of my musing on this to Dee Karl (alias the 7th Woman), who will be writing the article for the Booster Club. This will be posted on the NY Islanders Booster Club web site next week, and will be in the Club Newsletter as well.
He was so impressed by how the club operates and gets involved, that he even JOINED the Club!
Great guest, and stand up guy!
The next meeting of the club, is on Monday, November 13th, at the Long Island Marriott. We have not officially named the guest, but between you and me, it MAY be a guy that sits behind the players at games, and wears a suit and tie.
But you did NOT hear it from me….
