Even if Sorokin finds last years form I don't think it will be enough for the Isles we beat  in 6 with freaking MacKenzie Mckeathern on Ahos wing the Canes ability to score is much greater than last year...
These are the players the Canes didn't have last season when we played you.

Guentzel
Svechnikov
Teravainen
Orlov
Anderson

And Jarvis has made a huge leap up to being a 33 goal scorer (honestly if Rod hadn't glued him to Staal for half the season he probably would have gotten 40)

Every one of these is a massive upgrade over what we trotted out agaist the Isles last season.... couple that with Sorokins poor year and yes I'd be shocked if this series was close.... on the scoreboard or otherwise.

Take a look at who he's played while "hot" not to mention Freddie is Hotter....

The Islanders aren't gonna score more than 2 4x....

 

Remember Rod doesn't line match in the regular season I just don't see them scoring enough for this to be a close series....

 

This isn't last year our top scorer isn't gonna be Jesper Fast,

Varlamov beat the rags and Preds, In fact he blanked the Preds, in his last 5. Rags, Preds, Winnipeg and Florida in his last 10 only losing to Ottawa in OT and Tampa. 
 

Varlamov… “is 8-1-1 in 10 games with a goals against average of 2.09 and a save percentage of .930 in his last 10 games.”

Yes Freddie is on point but don’t sleep on the islanders or Varlamov.

He blanked the Preds after they clinched and had nothing to play for Freddie Anderson is 9-1 in his last ten with a 1.3 GAA and a save % of .951.

Canes have the Advantage there.

The only Advantage the Isles have is in hits and blocked shots, which probably wouldn't be one if the Canes didn't have possession of the puck 61% of the time..

 

#2 PP vs #32 PK (71.5%) 

#1 PK vs #19 PP

 

If this makes it to six I'd be shocked. The only hope they have Is if Varlomov can go God mode and the Canes PP reverts to back what it was last post season without Guentzel, Svechnikov, Orlov .

Any updated on Quickie?

In the playoff thread.

Will not start game 1.

Wont know till he practices, paraphrases Rod.

”Not a concussion”. A “neck sprain” per Donny Wads. “A matter of days”. 
 

I am sure they are probably physically restraining him from getting on the ice. You ain’t gonna keep that dude out. Not for the playoffs. 
 

Edit: I also want to point out in the presser Donny Wads specially referenced the MSF line. You can find all the pressers at: 

canespr.com ->media availabilities. 
 

MSF mother fuger. Better fugging happen.

      Dave Canales says Jalen Coker is our tentative #2 next season

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      It will be really interesting to see how both sides handle this. I'm sure the team would love to get him signed to a 4 year deal based on his output so far and some potential factored in, i.e. something like a 4 year $30 million contract.  But I could see his agent telling him the best path is to take the one year offer, put up a big year next year and then really cash in. The team also has to keep in mind T-Mac's 2nd contract, which likely will happen after the 2027 season assuming he keeps improving as expected.  Even if we could get him on a budget 4 year deal for what he could become, the problem then becomes when he wants to re-negotiate in 2 years during the same summer we will extend T-Mac, and you don't want to spend that much on WRs in one offseason, just see the Bengals this last year. Taking everything into consideration, I'm thinking the 1 year deal and then getting him to sign a 4-5 year deal after hopefully say a 800ish yard season next year might be best for our cap situation and separate his and T-Mac's negotiation periods.

      And yet jax made it no further than we did, and its very possible the Pats don't either. I think it speaks more to the overall down year for the nfl as far as having great/dominant teams, every team this year has fatal flaws that can be exploited
