Don't talk about playoffs, you kiddin' me? Playoffs?!?

[Chapin Landvogt]

Right here with you. I want a Isles/Rangers first round matchup.


The league should institute a vote in process for the final two playoff spots. If your fan base believes you have less than 3% chance of the winning the Cup, then the four closest teams can vote on who should get in vs not.

How do you think that vote will go?

Sounds like you then only have 6 teams in the playoffs...

 

[Mr Misunderstood]

You’re one of the JIMs ?

We should have to walk around with 'JIM' scarlet letters.

Better odds for the lotto?

No need. People can see it on our faces.

I didn’t jinx shit. FIRE UP THE PLAYOFF AVATARS!

 

[Osakahaus]

Somehow this team did it.

Marvelous

Let's just continue this thread and rename it, "Don't talk about playoff avatars, you kiddin' me? Playoff avatars?!?"

RDC, I hope you're not busy - it's your time of the year, sir.

With the Pittsburgh game being meaningless to us, Islanders should try Barzal on the PK for the hell of it. I also wonder who sits for Wahlstrom and Holmstrom, maybe Martin and Clutterbuck?

I'm gonna pass the baton to the most willing and able patron of these heralded boards. I'm up to my dick in work.

Brilliant, let’s have him block as many shots as possible

I think they should rest him on Wed. He hasn't been the same since the knee issue last week. Give him time to heal up.

 

[periferal]

Pretty psyched to watch Brind'Amour complain about every single penally called on the Hurricanes....


Again.

 

[Big L]

Whenever the first game is Saturday or Sunday, guarantee it’ll be the afternoon non-marquee matinee

We need to find something to make our PK better and Barzal is 2nd int he league for takeaways

Fair enough, I didn't think of that

I’d imagine clutterbuck would play, pretty amazing personal accomplishment for him to play all 82 games this year.

I was just thinking you want to sit guys who are either injured or older, but somebody did make a decent case for Barzal. Maybe Lee? Can't do Palmieri since he is 1 goal away from 30

curious what the isles do in goal. Run Varly or continue to redeem Sorokin?

If PIT has a win your in game, then that’s a real choice by Roy. You want to keep Varly rolling, but Sorokin has been torched by PIT before.

The team is hot - keep it the same. Agree on Barzal if he needs to rest his leg.

PIT is so erratic, you don’t want to get flamed in your last game bc they rest guys.

Play Sorokin against the Penguins, Varly against the Canes Game one(till he loses).

Understandable, and appreciate the imagery. Thank you for your prior service, and hopefully you can resume in the future if we're not rebuilding/tanking and you're only up to your ankles in work.

Someone else will need to step up. I'd do it, but my graphics abilities stalled with Paint in 1998. I'm not joking.

Sorokin has eliminated PIT in the playoffs before.

Sorokin has eliminated PIT in the playoffs before.

Once upon a time, not in the past 16 months, which is the time of concern with Sorokin.
