And the kicker, I think, is we should be even more complimentary of the Rangers. For instance, say things like "As a Canes fan I know our fanbase really doesn't know shit about hockey. I love reading Isles' fans takes because I know their knowledge of hockey is so strong and so rooted in the tradition of the game. But we can all agree that the only fan more knowledgeable than an Isles fan is a Rangers fan."
Bless their hearts.



He's just like us. Will he make a playoff appearance? Go Canes.

Im sorry but its not physically possible for me to be complimentary of the rags.

I would die.
Can't lie that they're sort of a secondary team of mine. Mom is from New York and grew up a big Rangers fan (still is), so I've had her influence, and the ECHL Checkers used to be affiliated with Hartford & NYR so it was cool to see guys like Dan Girardi start with us and move up

Oh dear. I cannot imagine living or actually being convinced that NC is a shit hole state and NY is not. Politics aside, there’s a reason why there continues to be a mass migration of the northeastern neck beards into our suburbs and it’s not for the Bojangles.
As a Binghamtonian (Binghamton, NY), I'm trying to convince my wife to move closer to my parents in Myrtle Beach, mostly for the Bojangles actually.

Tonight will tell us a lot about this years playoffs. Please, please please don’t repeat that frustrating cycle of home wins/away losses. That was the most frustrating series’ imaginable last year, just please! Win a road game, get rid of these also rans who should not have even made the playoffs, and let’s move on to a more challenging, respectable team than these childish goons.

I perused the Isles board this morning. There was a lot of talk that we are a cult of ignorance. We don't know shit about hockey. Our state is a shithole to live in. Matt Martin should run more players.

I say we respond the best way possible, by being kind. I mean, by being kind in a hugely trollish way. Being overtly kind. Superficially kind. Absurdly kind. Being a real jackass of kindness. Complimenting their players over-the-top. Agreeing with them over-the-top. In any main board thread, I say we should all be ruthlessly kind bastards towards their squad.

And the kicker, I think, is we should be even more complimentary of the Rangers. For instance, say things like "As a Canes fan I know our fanbase really doesn't know shit about hockey. I love reading Isles' fans takes because I know their knowledge of hockey is so strong and so rooted in the tradition of the game. But we can all agree that the only fan more knowledgeable than an Isles fan is a Rangers fan."
As a fan of a team who gets the same "they don't know shit about hockey down there" tripe, I approve of this plan.

They are also still whining about officiating in their GDT

we are tied in missed high stick calls late in the game. Does the tie break tonight?

Islanders high stick (double minor) missed when Islanders were on their late powerplay that eventually became a 6 on 4.

Canes high stick, maybe, where they player went and cried to the ref and left Fast wide open for the winner.

both could have had impact on the game but only one did because we didnt cry to the ref about it.
