Comments for Money Out-Weighing Performance For NY Islanders at http://www.bizofhockey.com , comment 1 to 4 out of 4 comments http://www.bizofhockey.com Thu, 23 May 2013 21:38:48 +0100 FeedCreator 1.7.3 http://www.bizofhockey.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=437:dipietro&catid=46:articles-and-opinions&Itemid=64#comment-104 As an Isles fan, I can honestly say that Nabokov is definitley better than what they have and he has the potential to be much better than both. If you look at how all three played...you can clearly see he is their best option, but I see why they are sticking with Ricky D since they agve him so much money. BTW that contract is NOT that model....it was not front loaded unlike the other deals - Erik Tue, 04 Oct 2011 13:47:21 +0100 http://www.bizofhockey.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=437:dipietro&catid=46:articles-and-opinions&Itemid=64#comment-103 Agreed. Attention to detail is lacking here while overall premise is good. Also, if the 15 year deal was so bad, why did so many teams copy the model? The only reason it went south was due to injury. Had he not required rebuilding, the pricing structure was monetarily favorable. And isn't that what you were trying to discuss? - 7thWoman Tue, 04 Oct 2011 08:53:06 +0100 http://www.bizofhockey.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=437:dipietro&catid=46:articles-and-opinions&Itemid=64#comment-102 This story is full of inaccuracies. DiPietro has 10 years left on his contract, not 11. He did not miss significant time at all last season due to his knees -- a few games in January and a few more coupled with his facial injuries in his ill-timed fight with Brent Johnson. The comment "Nabakov has been the best...in pre-season" is just not true. Both DiPietro and Montoya have been just as good, if not better. Would the Isles like a do-over on the 15 year deal? You could argue that. However, the rest of this story really needs to be reworked. - Eric Mon, 03 Oct 2011 14:36:53 +0100 http://www.bizofhockey.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=437:dipietro&catid=46:articles-and-opinions&Itemid=64#comment-101 I like cheese! - Dick Bone Mon, 03 Oct 2011 13:23:52 +0100
