beside the scrum in the stands, that was pretty boring...no goal footage..

During the years prior to 1994 when the fishsticks fans used to chant 1940. Was that 1,940 the average attendance to a fishsticks home game they were chanting about? Lets face it the only time that dump in Uniondale sells out is when N.Y.'s greatest hockey team, the N.Y. Rangers, plays there.

[heaveho94]

well said...

[ChetCampbell72]

1,940 was the attendance of the C.A.A., the former home of the New Jersey Devils, not the Nassau Coliseum.

[Theo814A]

Ok. So the attendance was less then 1,940 at the coliseum. I guess the Devils had more.

[mrceebees14]

You are missing the point of what that person is saying, the CAA did not have 1,940 seats, it was 19,040 seats. Ranger fans always bragged about how they sell out others arena's. Well the Devils cleverly devised a catch-22 when and if Ranger fans did in fact sell out their arena. And they did, to which the Ranger fans would have to hear this message "Tonight's game is a sellout with NINTEEN................pause..­...........THOUSAND.....FORTY.­" The fans would then chant 1940 over and over again.

[mrceebees14]

1940 is easily the most derasive chant that ever exsisted in sports. It is easily the MOST derasive chant to have ever exsisted in the NHL.

As a person who witnessed its birth and part-took in it when the Isles slammed the Rangers in the 1981 semi-finals(now called the conf. finals) when the chant was really born, I can tell you with 150% honesty and certainty that it drove Ranger fans insanely mad.

Ranger fans are funny because they brag about shit when they haven't won a damn thing yet. How does it feel that going into the playoffs you lost to a team with a NCAA roster? If you win a few rounds, then by all means talk your shit. But, tomorrow if you lose to the Devils, have no home ice, and lose in the first round, your team ends up with one of the biggest dissapointments in your franchises history. You guys crowned yourselves Cup champs before the season even started, and don't deny it.

[dyep8nt07]

see this guy, he knows what hes saying

[NYRNYM9486]

again, whatever helps you sleep at night. don't try hiding behind the devils, and act as if a victory for them is a victory for you. you guys are one of the biggest jokes in sports today. hell, you losers have gone 15 years without a playoff series victory!

[goisles]

Who is hiding behind anybody? Hockey is very entertaining to me, and I enjoy watching my biggest rival lose. It doesn't matter who the Rangers are playing, just as I'm sure you root against the Isles too. Biggest jokes in sports? You're dreaming. A team that is decimated by injuries that still wins games against some of the best teams down the stretch with quality youth is hardly a huge joke. PS I'm a Mets fan too and having a pretty hard time with that right now as well. Where's the offense?

[NYRNYM9486]

ok ok. atleast we can agree on the mets, and their pathetic lack of offense. lol.

[NYRNYM9486]

why didn't you record the "seasons over" chant? how did it feel being very outnumbered in your own arena? how did it feel seeing the islanders get BOOED at the coliseum? how does it feel knowing we clinched in your building? how did it feel that the very last game of the year at the shithole featured the islanders getting shutout by henrik? how did it feel that the only people cheering last night were the ones in ranger jerseys?

SEASONS OVER!! SEASONS OVER!! SEASONS OVER!! LETS GO RANGERS!!!!

[goisles]

blah blah blah. You're having your fun right now, enjoy it. We had ours last year at your place with the "You Can't Beat Us" chants, you have yours now. Rag fans get choked out by the bouncers and there were actually 10x more Isles fans in this vid than Rag$, but like usual Rag fans want to brag about shit that isn't true. Enjoy the 4 and out.

[NYRNYM9486]

whatever helps you sleep at night.

and believe me, your chants NEVER were near as loud as the seasons over chant we put out at the coliseum. not even on the same radar.

[nintendo1984]

were you embarrassed that there were more ranger fans than gaylander fans?the ranger fans getting kicked out were cheered....how sad LOL!!!!!!!

GO RANGERS!!!

[sn88]

the islanders are one of the most pathetic teams in professional sports. last night was great to clinch in that excuse for a building filled with ranger fans talking shit to islander fans who were rooting for an AHL team. another horrilbe season ensures that all we will hear about is the 4 cups that are going on 30 years ago for another season.

[robtk14]

Glad to see there was at least a few Islander fans there. Enjoy the golf course next week, LOL! How did it feel to hear chants of "Hen-rik" in your own arena? SEASONS OVER

[bucs2003sb]

yeah the rangers suck huh u dumb fuck? who shut u down 3-0 and clinched a playoff spot In ur house!!.. and ranger fans took over the building LMAOO "SEASONS OVER" Enjoy playing golf dickheads, and watching the Rangers in the playoffs stupid ass..

[dyep8nt07]

who won the majority of the games played with islanders vs rangers??? answer= islanders

[NYRNYM9486]

does that honestly matter? we're playing in the playoffs, and you're golfing. you assholes were the ones running your mouths in december bragging about how you were ahead of us, or tied with us. you were the ones who kept reminding everyone to talk after the year, and see where each team finished.

my advice to you is to purchase a newspaper, and note how the season is, indeed, over. and that you guys missed the playoffs by far, and we're in it. thats ALL that matters.

[dyep8nt07]

you'll be playing gold with us after the first round

[NYRNYM9486]

nice english.

[dyep8nt07]

yea whatever, typos, who cares
