2021 Playoff Avatars - Avatars on Post #54

[PK Cronin]

Just about the entire roster is done, plus a few bonus ones for a few of you. Have a couple undesirables left to do and then I'll post them up.

Don't call Uncle Leo an undesirable.

Don't call Uncle Leo an undesirable.

I was waiting for a Bailey joke.

It's Coburn and Aho that I have left. Both have almost no pictures as Islanders this year and zero with good quality. They'll be a blurry mess.

 

[PK Cronin]

Love it.

I’ll claim an Anders Lee.

Sorokin please!

That's better than I thought.

I'll take an Uncle Leo please

Humbly requesting Sparky the Dragon my good sir

Oh you bastard! You beat me to it!

That's ok. May I have a Beau version, please?

I call dibs on Dobson.

I'll take Varly, preferably masked if possible. Still don't get what's going on....but it's fun nonetheless!

FWIW:
Jack in the Box
Wendy's
Burger King / McDonalds (tie BK better burgers, McD better fries)
Everything else I've had

I am tempted to stay with my ping pong Pager. After all, since I've been using it, the worst the Isles have finished is conference finals..

But if we're all gonna have major bags, I'd be most appreciative of a Pager.

I'll take Pulock if possible!

Thanks for designing them!

These are awesome! ill take Wahlstrom if possible

[Lame Lambert]

PK if you’re okay with it and I have time I might take a crack at turning some of these into gifs

 

[Thrasymachus]

the choice of pictures for Pageau is excellent

 

[13th Floor]

Here's the rest:

You need one with Butch, but with a 40 inside the bag.

Of course, if you need the working file let me know.

 

[Kevin27NYI]

Pulock looks like he’s smoking a dart

 

[MattMartin]

Great work @PK Cronin !! I tinkered mine a bit, yours came out better.

NEW YORK ISLANDERS AT BOSTON BRUINS











GM




​

Preview




​

The next prove-the-world-wrong challenge for Barry Trotz and the New York Islanders are the Boston Bruins with their Second Round series beginning Saturday night in front of nearly a full capacity at TD Garden.

The fourth-seeded Islanders upset the Pittsburgh Penguins in six games to move on to the East Division’s final playoff round while the Bruins beat the Washington Capitals in five games after dropping Game 1. Puck drop Saturday goes at 8 p.m. EST.

In eight meetings this season the Islanders got the upper-hand with a 5-2-1 record and went a perfect 4-0 at home. But New York’s three losses to Boston were the three games Taylor Hall and Mike Reilly appeared in, two trade deadline adds who have made Boston a new team.

Hall put up 14 points in 16 regular season games with Boston while Reilly had a career-high 27 points, all of which were assists. The Islanders added some key trade deadline pieces too, as former New Jersey Devils Kyle Palmieri and Travis Zajac both saw action against Pittsburgh. Palmieri scored three goals (including an overtime winner) in six games, while Zajac picked up the primary assist on New York’s series-winning goal but was healthy scratched in the series’ first five games.

New York Islanders​

Offence isn’t the Islanders’ or Trotz’s mantra, it’s playing sound hockey and strong defence. Scoring 21 goals in six playoff games says the opposite, but let’s be real: New York capitalized on Tristan Jarry’s inability to stop the puck.
In the regular season New York finished 21st with 2.71 goals per game. On the flip side, they were the second with 2.23 goals against. Strong goaltending played a key role, although Trotz has gone to rookie Ilya Sorokin in the post-season. Sorokin started four games in Round 1 and posted a .943 save percentage.
Up front, Anthony Beauvillier and Jean-Gabriel Pageau led the Isles with seven points each. And get to know Adam Pelech and Ryan Pulock, New York’s top pair tasked with shutting down Boston’s top six.

Boston Bruins​

In years past Brad Marchand, Patrice Bergeron, and David Pastrnak carried the Bruins’ offence. They still combined for 13 points in Round 1, but the addition of Hall has made Boston top-six a juggernaut.

Boston’s second line of Hall, David Krejci, and Craig Smith only had eight combined points in Round 1 but came through in clutch moments and make for a matchup nightmare considering opponents now have to allocate for two loaded Bruins’ lines. Opponents also have to allocate for Tuukka Rask in net, who went 4-1 with a .941 save percentage in Round 1.

[Richie Daggers Crime]

Nice work.

 

[MattMartin]

 

[TMI]

PK, these are fantastic, excellent work!!

 

[doublechili]

If we play the Leafs, someone's gotta do Tavares with "Major Douche Bag Alert".

BTW, I'm past all that, but just for old time's sake....

 

[IslesRock4]

Love them PK! Thank you!

 

[LeapOnOver]

Wow, @PK Cronin , thanks! That friggin' Anders Lee one is PHENOMENAL! Miss that guy!

 

[LeapOnOver]

They play this commercial CONSTANTLY during games.

Ahh, I gotcha now. Thanks for clearing that up, lol!

 

[Richie Daggers Crime]

Major 404 alert.

 

[buud]

rocking Pageau. IMO, the most underrated Isle.

and thanks PK!

 

[Mr Misunderstood]

Can you make one that says 2021 1st Round Pick, I'd rather have that one than Palmieri or Zajac.

 

[MJF]

I think Brendan & Butchie together are major bag worthy. So is AJ.

Start the draft party

 

[xECK29x]

Thanks PK!

 

[PK Cronin]

Here's a few more you guys mentioned. That'll just about do it though, I won't have much more time before puck drop to do any others.
