Series isn't even over, counting with a strong response from Islanders.

Agree Islanders will have something to say about this. It ain't over yet.

Congrats to Tampa for back to back Covid Cups.

If they can win 2 cups in 2 shortened seasons, I can see Tampa three-seating next year.

They'll all be well rested for next season, especially Kucherov.

 

[Green]

the fact the Islanders had to goon it up a bit towards the end does not give me alot of confidence the rest of the series, Martin should have just gave Goodrow some facewashes and called it a day, seems the team was more interested in getting revenge physically than on the scoreboard and that is not a good sign, and you probably just motivate Tampa going forward

Islanders got murked. Like i said the older players for the Isles will run out of gas… Zajac, Greene, Clutterbuck…doneski

....And the refs in the Bolts' pockets....

....And the no-state tax.......

....And the 'no crowd noise' from Amalie....

....And the lush golf courses all over the state.....

....And the white sandy beaches.....

....And Disney World being so close....

....And the large Cuban population in south and central Florida who run damned fine restaurants....

He got a game misconduct. The NHL will consider that sufficient and he'll be fine for Game 6.

I can pretty much guarantee that. Will be shocked if he gets suspended.

A game misconduct while down a touchdown isn’t much of a penalty. I’m sure most of the isles players would have loved to have had the third period off

I completely agree. It already annoys me that Barzal's misconduct in a game that was already over is likely to going to save him a potential suspension.

This one was 100% on the refs. It's a conspiracy to hand the win to Tampa.

Yea really handing it to them when they don’t even score a goal

 

[KeziaTML]

Why would Tavares do this to you guys?

 

[Shrimper]

Tampa will sweep whoever they get in the final

Kucherov and Point since the start of last year playoffs: 112 points in 41 games. Is that good?

if McDavid was doing what Point has been doing the past two years we would be hearing it for a decade.

I said Tampa in 5 all along.

Guess I was right

 

[Pandaman11]

- TBL - NYI is a conference final / Cup semifinal
- TBL scores 8 goals in one of the games
- TBL can clinch in 6
- VGK is having trouble with a team that is a kinda surprise semifinalist

It's like they're just re-enacting for the return of the fans

 

[Headshot77]

Only silver lining is it can't get worse than that, won't be hard to pull out all the stops game 6.

Could always lose 9-0

 

[NightMist]

Tampa exploded all over the face and torso of the Isles. Damn. That was messy.

This is filthy talk

 

[NightMist]

Barzal should get 1 for abuse of an official

100%. I can't believe the mostly silence on this so far.

 

[Instant]

Oh, stay classy Tampa fans, stay classy.

Coming here for a moment just to say you deserved the win. Clearly a better team on the ice yesterday and the score pretty much describes the clusterf*** that happened.
