Islanders strip Lee of captaincy, give Neal the C

[TheScorpion]

After a turbulent summer which has seen him be traded twice, Anders Lee has been stripped of the Islanders' captaincy.

"This GM is nuts," Lee told reporters. "He can name himself captain for all I care."

TheScorpion retaliated by giving the C to none other than recent acquisition James Neal.

"This team is great and the GM is so good and smart," said Neal.

only makes sense if you use the old logo with the fisherman preparing to throw a crosscheck to the head.

I have no idea what you guys are talking about, doesn't this look like a good forward lineup to you?

James Neal "C" - Eric Staal - Dustin Brown "A"
Lars Eller - Derek Stepan - Dillon Dube
PE Bellemare "A" - Drake Caggiula - Mats Zuccarello
Anders Lee - Trevor Moore - Justin Williams

That looks like a $52.17 million dollar line up without RFA deals. I'll be curious to see you fit in 6 D and 2 Goalies for $11.32 million
