If he was getting the insane goaltending Trotz has gotten this year? He'd be fine.I’d love to see him coach the Isles’ roster compared to the stacked Pens’ teams of 2016 and 2017.
Our team has played flat for 2 years. How long will sully get a free pass? I don’t want to sabotage this thread. We agree to disagree.
Go Pens
I’m hoping for some playoff hockey. Pens will probably give us a lot of play-oofs instead.
We’ll take it in the end, though. Crosby, time to feast! One point out from sole possession for 10th all time in playoff scoring. Three more to get to 8th. Two more to get to 7th. Six more for 6th. Five more for 5th. We won’t be coming back each year for forever. I hope he keeps moving up quickly while we can!
Isles fan comes in peace of course. This sounds like a great series...legends on offense vs the team no one can score on.
I wanted to dump trash on you... and the I looked, the islanders have the least GA of all 16.Isles fan comes in peace of course. This sounds like a great series...legends on offense vs the team no one can score on.
You can take it in your end.

I suspect this will look a lot like the Pens-Sens series from a couple yrs ago, with the difference being the Isles will try that whole forecheck thing.
I have no confidence that the Pens will take the series. The Islanders are younger, faster, and because they are playing with house money -- probably looser. (and from the few games I've watched, they may even be more defensively sound)
That said, Pens in 6.

One thing of note is PIT has really clamped down things more in their own end even with these several blown leads here and there.
That is from when we last played Trotz's Isles.
NYI are the best team in the league on the season with 2.33GAA.
Since the trade deadline PIT is 2.315GAA. Probably one of the tops in the league.
Alot of that has to do with MP-Guds forming a solid shutdown pair.
And it was done with alot of games without the top pair playing. Dumo came back for some time while Tanger bowed back out then Dumo again with Letang getting 2 games in to end it.
ETA: NYI are 2.380GAA in that same time span.
Ummm, 3rd C? Big blue liner who isn't a liability?TBH it's all gravy from here. We never sorted out any of our issues that we had all year
I just hate how we’ve played this season. We have too many players that have slumped to not question the coaching.
Huge advantage to Trotz over Sullivan, but from a pure talent perspective, we have the upper hand.
I just don’t see Malkin, Horny and Phil suddenly turning on the switch and start playing well. We’ve been a one-line team for far too long. Plus, Murray and the team can’t seem to close out games which could
easily kill us in the playoffs.
I picked Isles in 7 games. I hope I am wrong.
