Out of Town Thread 2021: Part 11

[Adriatic]

I think I'd rather Avs. We've had success shutting down younger highly offensive teams so far. Vegas are a totally different beast. They're 4 lines deep, big, fast with a strong goalie and can also defend with the best of them.

 

[dinodebino]

Can't believe we're there with the big boys. I mean, Tampa, LV, Avs, arguably the three best teams in the league. One is the Cup champ, one is an up an coming machine and the 3rd is uber poised to win as a veteran and mature team.

And then, there's the Isles.

And us! Us tabarnac! Can't believe it!

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

You know who's got a great shot at the cup this year? The Bru.... oh wait, they suck.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Going further than both the Laffs & B's brings an extra touch of joy to the 2 series wins...

Only thing better would've been beating Boston ourselves.

But it's nice to see them lose early. f*** them.

Habs vs Isles finals. Imagine the butthirt throughout the league

Wow! Congratulations to Uncle Lou and the NY Islanders. I was following them a few years ago and the present and future seemed so bleak during the Garth Snow era.

That fanbase deserve this playoff run and I’m glad they made it to the final 4. Absolutely phenomenal work by Lou Lamoriello building this team from scratch.

I hope they destroy Tampa Bay.

Now you're an Islanders fan too!

The downfall for the Bruins will be their 2015 Draft. Imagine if they just get 2 of the 3 big boys with picks 15 to 17. Their fans were in denial about that draft failure.

Especially picking Zboril over his teammate Chabot. Tonight they dressed Mike Reilly and Jarred Tinordi in an elimination game.

oof....

 

[Zam Boni]

I honestly understand why even this DPOS gave him 4 games. He probably bombed the hearing if these are his comments after the series.

I can imagine he showed or expressed no remorse and accountability, and I guess that is what the DPOS was looking for.

 

[Zam Boni]

Man the atmosphere at the Isles game, like a Euro soccer game! Insane!

Bring on Tampa!
Islanders could be a great fit to cause them some problems. The big issue with facing Tampa is that you've gotta contain all their firepower AND beat Vasy, and he basically never gives up any weak goals and often stops a few he shouldn't.

Is there ever a playoffs where the Bruins fans don't blame the refs? Oh yes, when they win.

There is a poster over there, who really thinks Marshy is a better player than McDavid.............lol

Rolling out the excuses for sure..........I think it was injuries first, and poor officiating second....
I think we need some pics of Marchand having a meltdown!!
Runner? Help....

 

[Habs Halifax]

Bruins days were numbered with an aging core and a weak prospect pool. A few injuries and it showed against the Islanders. Big decisions to make for them in the off season.

Good times in Boston with all the sports leagues. That couldn't last forever! Glad to see the Bruins get knocked out even though I would have loved to see a Bruins/Habs Final

 

[WeThreeKings]

Boston, Pittsburgh and Toronto are out.

It's beautiful.

A little extra salt in the wound for JT.

The one thing I didn't like that Tavares did was hold them hostage on his intentions. They could have traded him as a rental. That wasn't cool and karma is a bitch

Thanks, glad to see you guys in the final 4 as well.

Since you beat the Leaves and we beat the whiny Bruins, you wanna touch tips or something?

Hopefully we’ll see you in the SCF.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Will Isles get their revenge on Tampa this year? They met last year in the ECF and Tampa won and then went on to win the Cup.

There was also this in the 2015 draft:

Yeah, wasn’t it something like he told them he wanted to finish the season and good chance he’d resign? Either way, he coulda did the Isles a solid if he always wanted to go so that they’d get something back for him.

Now you're an Islanders fan too!

Even the Dirty Bruins from time to time.
