Around the NHL - Part XLI - (Playoffs Edition)

[Megustaelhockey]

Islanders beating themselves, kind of like they have all season.

 

[LeetchisGod]

Islanders are falling apart with stupid penalties.

 

[Boris Zubov]

Isles may not win this series, but man they are exacting a toll.

 

[Kovalev27]

Man the islanders have to be the scummiest team in the league these days

 

[Megustaelhockey]

Why did Necas grab his face?

 

[bl02]

That kid seems softer than baby shit, plus he's a diver. Not impressed with him at all.

Not gonna lie have not seen him play much but the play with Pulock was definitely not a dive.

Isles may not win this series, but man they are exacting a toll.

Would be nice to see Carolina not win this in 5 games, they would get a week off.

The earliest the Rangers can finish is Thursday with the stupid two days off after game 4.

No, today's dive came earlier in the game. I've seen it with him a couple of times during the season.

The Pulock hit was a penalty, but Drury put himself in a really bad spot there. Need to have better awareness if you want to endure the rigors of pro hockey.

 

[Captain Lindy]

Tampa Bay has much more thuggery than the Islanders do. Islanders would dream of being such thugs.

Who has Tampa injured?

 

[The Gloaming]

Who has Tampa injured?

They injure players every year. Any time they are losing in a blowout they jump players continuously after every whistle. Hasn't happened yet but Stamkos jumped Matthews yesterday out of nowhere when everyone was just standing around after penalties were already given out and started throwing punches at him and you can always count on Kucherov to slash and whack. Not to mention their 4th line.

Islanders are worse.

 

[Holocene]

wow canes finally gonna win a road game????

 

[Captain Lindy]

Beautiful! 3-0 Canes.

 

[The Gloaming]

Islanders are worse.

Meh. They also don't have a coach who knows how to work the refs and gives post game interviews that make the refs become blind to their thuggery as the series goes on. That Tampa team is a machine. Cry about the refereeing somewhere in the middle of the series, then they get all the beneficial calls late in the series while they crosscheck and hack away with impunity.

 

[Megustaelhockey]

Isles giving themselves the ol' pre-guillotine shave.

 

[gabevh3]

Laffy was just as much an instigator in that scrum. It looked like Stamkos spit on him afterwards but nobody asked or talked about it so who knows.

Because gg and drury are league puppets.

 

[Boris Zubov]

Watching this game is torture. I don't care who you're rooting for.

 

[Miamipuck]

Other than the fact they are losing 3-0, this game is ass. I will bet my left nut the Isle's are not scoring 3.

 

[inranger94]

Bunch of grinders running around the rink is not fun to watch in the playoffs.

That was us a few years ago. Middling grinding team with a great goaltender.

 

[The Gloaming]

Jack Hughes has been busy with the sponsorships. Constantly seeing him in ads.

[Leonardo87]

That should be game.

 

[Captain Lindy]

4-0. WOHOOOOOOO

 

[PuckLuck3043]

Lets Go Islanders! LOL. Getting their asses kicked. Always good to see.
