I"m taping the game, so I'm signing out of this thread. Thought I'd share this though. I had a friend who I haven't spoken with in 10 years email me the other day. He's a HUGE Islander fan.

His email read

"The streaks stops Monday Feb. 19th on Long Island."

It was funny, but creepy at the same time.

GO PENS GO

Me too. Through the magic of TiVo, we'll be watching tonight without knowing what happened. No web surfing for me this afternoon. Of course, I'm at work, so I would never do that anyway

You're good! Just doing my LGP duty. Apparently, things got a bit winky in the game thread yesterday.

Thanks for fixing it, though.

As I said, I have a feeling the streak will end. I don't mind being proven wrong, though.

No, no this fun. I never get to participate in game threads because I don't have computer and TV in the same location.
