You Carolina fans sure talk a big game. Better hope your team backs it up.
You think they're going to be subtle?I look forward to the constant subtle jabs that Carolina fans don’t know hockey and Islander fans educating us throughout the series.
Freddie Vs Varlomov
Trying to figure out this goalie advantage the Isles supposably have
I see posters saying this over and over yet I don't quite understand we're they are getting it from....
Frederick Anderson has been better than Varlomov this season.... last season In the playoffs he posted a .927% and 1.83 GAA pretty much identical to his stats this season...
If he's available to play he's elite for us.
Kochetkov has had a much better season than Sorokin and he's also capable of stealing games.
ANTI RAANTA who is in the AHL is single handily dragging down the Canes overall goal tending numbers this season won't see the ice unless we lose two goalies....
I mean you basically hit the nail on the head yourself with Andersen. "if he's available to play". Is not always a given. His durability and dependability health-wise is an unknown factor.
And the other alternative is a 24 year old with limited NHL experience, and very limited playoff experience (with bunk results - though from before he was ready). Again, total unknown how he'll fare if asked to carry the load in the playoffs, where things can often change dramatically from regular season results.
It's just an unknown with multiple factors potentially up in the air. Simple as that. Which is why it gets brought up a lot. Not a certainty that it'll be terrible by any means...but also not a certainty that it'll be rock solid either. If the Isles somehow triumph in this series, i think there's a very strong chance that shaky goaltending (or just losing the goaltending battle to Sorokin) is the main culprit.
its Bless your heart, if you're going to try to mock us, at least get it right.Bless you.
Who?
I hear the only thing worse than touching PK is touching a US Navy Ship.You’ll find out if someone decides to touch him.

I bet your papa couldn't smell the rain coming and your mama bought her gravy from the store in packets.We're from NY. A "Bless You" might as well be rolling out the red carpet and lying down in puddles for you. Now you ask for THREE words of kindness?
Don't expect too much.
Also "Bless your heart" are not words of kindness, if someone here says that to you its the equivalent of saying "what a dumbass".I bet your papa couldn't smell the rain coming and your mama bought her gravy from the store in packets.
Islanders have won 6 playoff series in recent years. All of them against better teams top to bottom.I hate both teams. I just don't see how the Isles win this though. Carolina is simply better top to bottom and that was before Guentzel. Canes in 5, max 6.
Rod would have a meltdown if Webb ran around running over guys like this:The Isles just called up Steve Webb!!!!
How many of those were against the Canes? I can't recall how they did for some reason.Islanders have won 6 playoff series in recent years. All of them against better teams top to bottom.

Hey I just asked them how many of those were against the CanesDo they still have the same coach and plodding, defense only style as those years? It was a miserable experience but worked.
You Carolina fans sure talk a big game. Better hope your team backs it up.
They have a coach who does plenty of that. The fans just put the icing on the cake.We know from experience that theyll whine about every single call
First time on an internet message board?We know from experience that theyll whine about every single call
