"Regarding Calum Ritchie for now being in Bridgeport: I appreciate this being a shock to the system of #Isles fans but this management is doing the right thing for their young players. Yes there will be times when you can easily make the case that some kid in the AHL is better than someone with the big club but give it time. This season and perhaps one or two after that needs to be about the big picture"

"The goal for Calum Ritchie is to become a complete player. #Isles are smart to have him in the minors. Hes a good prospect but the book on him is that needs to be much better defensively to become a top-3 C for NYI as The Build evolves. This is what the AHL is for"

"Noticeable change from Patrick Roy. While saying #Isles did some good things which is absolutely true he made clear theyre not here for moral victories he was not satisfied and we want more. Perfect tone and good to see the change from the HC"

"Hate to break it to some of my friends on here but #Isles wont be a total disaster this season. The East is thin and the NYI have capable players. Even in this first year of The Build they will hang near the other mids for a final playoff spot. No matter: management understands the big picture. One thing thats good early though. Mathieu Darche is getting a first-hand look at the ridiculous contracts (and no-move clauses) handed out like candy by his predecessor. The players LOVE Lou was a common reply by some of you to me the last few years. Well of course they did. Im glad to hear from"
