Down 0-3 to Carolina, this one is all but over. How much of a difference would having John Tavares potentially have made for Islanders here?
That centre depth still got them further than the 3 #1 centre Maple Leafs. Not sure why you guys are coming in this thread acting all smug u guys HAD Tavares and u still lost again in round 1 (and finished lower in the regular season) despite leading the series 3 times.100%. They have a glaring lack of center depth. Barzal was exposed this year.
Do I think he woulda helped? Yes of course. But I have a feeling Canes would have won this series anyway even if Isles did have JT.They lost him for nothing. I am pretty sure having an "extra" top line C would be nice.
Leafs are already unlucky and have bad karma their way. Lol won't matterBad karma thread
Tavares would be a 60 point player on this Isles team
Maybe the Islanders miss the Playoffs with Tavares? Like they did last year with Tavares.
It seemed like they used Tavares leaving as motivation all season long, and perhaps wouldn't have had the same hunger to make the playoffs if they had him in their lineup.
Because let's face it...Their success hasn't been built on talent. It has been built on being hungrier and harder working than their opponents, which are traits that are born when your team captain ditches you and you take it personally.
Oh, this series is over. Make no mistake. The Islanders are getting shut out in game 4. Done like dinner, put a fork in it.Ughhhhh series isn’t over yet. Stop embarrassing yourself.
Jinx thread for canes fans.

Tavares was the best player on that team and still would be by a long shot!
