A Funny Thing Happened....

[The Underboss]

tonight on the way to the office. THE NEW YORK ISLANDERS ARE PLAYOFF BOUND!!!!

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

Congrats, guys & gals.

Well deserved.

This is honestly unreal. As a younger Isles fan, this is going to be my first playoff series that I'm actually going to be watching legitimately.

 

[A Pointed Stick]

By the skin of their teeth, and I don't care.

Now we worry about position.

 

[SI90]

Pretty emotional for me that this might be the last playoffs at the old barn...all the memories and all...

I hope we leave Nassau and the old Barn with a bang...

Would also be a nice big F U to the politians

 

[JetsMetsIsles]

Congratulations all around to all the fans who have stuck through it with this team. It makes it a lot more rewarding.

Its been tough but we are finally back in the Stanley Cup playoffs. Live it up guys

After lurking here for the better part of a year, but as a fan since 1977 when I went to my first game, I am proud to say THE ISLANDERS ARE IN THE PLAYOFFS!!!!!

Someone post a jpeg of the standings with that big fat X next to the club with the footnote that says CLINCHED PLAYOFF BERTH.

Trivia question: When is the last time the Islanders made the playoffs and the Devils did not?

When BRI, I have no clue?

Going to the show. Maybe they can win a playoff game at home for the first time in what seems like forever. I'll be there.

Just remember though, those that have been boycotting Wang and not going to the NVMC aren't allowed to go to playoff games now. Gotta be consistent. No live fun for you.

The most outspoken lives in Orange County, CA so I don't think he'd be going anyway.

You mean the guy who gets everything wrong? If NYI won the cup this year he'd still be pissed at Wang.

Who is up for watching game 1 or 2 at a bar in lower manhattan or Brooklyn?

Although my local pub has an owner/bartender who is a big NYI fan so just come here!

We'll probably bring the Barn down during one of the playoff games this year! Place will be nuts!

 

[Mory Schneideur*]

Devils fan here. I'm happy for you and will be rooting for you guys to get the prize and hang a banner next season in the rafters!

The Isles will be my surrogate team this post season.

Go Islanders!!!
