I know it’s not our game, but Id love to see someone go off on the next Islander that sits on one of player’s while they’re down. Matinook took cheap shots to the head in game 1, and Jordo was used as a picnic blanket in game 2. That crap’s gotta stop. But I guess I could settle for just another win, haha. 

Go Canes!

I don’t want us to take any double minors, but every time Martin is on the ice give him heavy quasi-legal hits for sitting on Staal.

Give the same treatment to Pageau who broke Turbo’s hand with an intentional whack with his stick..

Open the game with chippy play and show them we won’t be intimidated.

to be fair, I think teams have tried to play gimmicky get in our head games before and I think lately we have done a much better job of just staying out of it/staying out of the box more.  It has doomed us in the past (particularly v Boston) and I think we now look like the more disciplined and experienced team against these lesser playoff seeds.  Keep playing our game--that's what's got them frustrated and undisciplined

Agreed I was very impressed how we handled things Wednesday night. We can’t get pulled into the cheap shot game. We have to make the islanders play skill. After the first it seemed the islanders pulled back on the cheap shot game. We’ll see tonight though. If they get chippy, don’t bite. Take the 2’s not the 4’s,5’s or 10’s.

    • ^I want that, but Rodriguez over KC. Don't hate KC as much at that spot, but rather take a WR with the pick we gain in that trade than in the 1st. 
    • I think there is good points in this thread to what the team needs to do. 1) Ball isn't really the issue but, he needs reigned in.  Coach and he need to realize when things aren't falling from the three and learn to play other facets of the game.  He's an amazing talent and when he's on, he's on.  But he can also shoot you out of a game.  We're lucky Miami went that way but that is too many missed threes.  He still needs to bulk up if he can, but he needs to drive more.  He's pretty good at finishing usually and hopefully the fouls come (probably not though).   2) The whole team needs to be more physical.  As others have stated, we need more bulk in our bigs.  Diabate is a hurricane of energy but cannot go against the larger centers.  I love him on the team but he should be more of a match up type guy or energy off the bench.  I think he'd be insane off the bench.  However I think the biggest issue with Diabate and Kaulk is the lack of offensive game.  The lack of a jump shot or anything.  Teams figured out to just leave them on the screen and crash lanes.  There has to be some sort of threat.  We need a 4 and a 5 that can do those things and stretch out the court. 3) Bridges.  He's just undersized.  However, I feel he really threw his all into it the last few weeks when others were gassed.  He was ok not being a focal point.  I'd like to have him off the bench as well but I assume he'd be traded to make things work.  4) Miller.  Dude can light it up when on, but disappears for quarters at a time.  Also he needs to work on ball handling and passing.  He's a turnover machine at bad times.  Also hopefully over the injury so he can bulk up too.   5) Kon. Just a rookie.  Long season and back injury.  I have no doubt he'll be back stronger and focused.  Needs to work on defense and physicality like the whole team but yes, a rookie he'll get there. 6) Coby.  Has to be resigned, no question.  The bench lineup is rough without him running the point.  Team has big potential and the front office seems sharp.  They seen the hive and how crazy it got and how much the city wants this.
