Oh, where did the sun go?

Oh, where did the sun go?

That's Rob Schremp on twitter from a couple of days ago, his first post in nearly a month. Today, news comes that the Islanders have placed Schremp on waivers. Maybe the young man is a seer. Anyroad, Schremp has 22 points in 44 games for the Islanders so far this season, so there's at least a small chance that he'll get picked up by a team looking for a boost on their power play. I wish him the best.

Another player who’s career was flat our ruined by MacT.

At this point, I’d say MacT is not to blame…

Schremp couldn’t Skate, take a facw-off, or play defense. He also had a altitude and was know to take the odd night off. He scores that high-lite goal against a university team and some people thought he could play hockey. MacT didn’t hurt Schremps career, he did it himself.

He's had moments and is still deadly at shootouts

But he’s just not consistent enough for fans. Just can’t put it all together and he’s been given the chances.

Sad. Ah well, not every waiver wire pickup turns into Michael Grabner

Wow… he fell off the map there. He started off pretty strong, with 14 points in his first 20 games, then looks like the wheels fell off.

In theory, there is little difference between practice and theory, but in practice there is!
