Also did anyone else notice Aho sitting on Martin as retribution for last year? That poo was funny.

Be prepared, the goons will be out from this point on. You all know it’s coming, prepare for it. Just hope we get through without further injury.

Guenz - Aho - Svech(Enforcer)

Necas - KK(Enforcer) - TT

Martinook(Enforcer) - Staal(Shutdown) - Jarvis

Noesen(Enforcer) - Kuz - Drury(fighter)

Slavin - Burns(Shut downs)

Skjei - TDA(Enforcer)

Orlov(Shut down) - Chatty(Scraper)

Seems like Rod has the enforcing pretty well distributed right now in anticipation of this. I think TDA will direct draw into Skjei’s line. But he could push chatty up and pair orlov with TDA. I’d prefer direct draw in though.

Sorry ladies and gents..  but I don't post durning games usually.. Last night they needed me to focus on what was at hand..   23 shoots on goal at one time and one goal.   whew.. 

I'll admit,  I thought Rod pulled  Andersen and little too early at the 2:48 mark.  Down 3-1 .. 

Sooooo glad he's out coach.   2 goals in 80 seconds..   and the magic had already happened before the Islanders knew what happened.   2: 48..  and we WIN.  Amazing. This can happen in the regular season...  but we're talking playoff hockey and it happening. 

Loving that Maple Leaf win ..  F the Bruins ..

I usually have to catch games after they start, so I stay out of these threads to not catch spoilers.  I have to admit when it was 11:30pm and I was right at halfway through the 3rd I was thinking this wasn't looking good. I was ready for bed, but I knew the Isles are good at blowing leads so I checked the score.  Kind of wish now I wouldn't have done that, but man was it still magical to watch.  Jealous of you guys who were in the house last night.

My point here is I usually read through the thread the next day.  You guys really need to start on page 3-4 and read through it again; it's quite hilarious.  We are some of the most bipolar fans in the NHL.

Great win.  GO CANES!!!

I don't think the Isles can afford to go thug mode. They'll continue to rack up PIM and lose focus on winning the game. 

I also don't think Patrick Roy will let them go down that road. He's building the Isles and they need to win 1 at home. I think they will.

If memory serves me correct, last year, games 1-2 vs the isles they played goon mode and it backfired horrendously for them.  Once they moved to playing real hockey they played well. Their team this year is worse so it won’t matter. But if they go goon, our speed and talent will takeover like last year.

    • Have you seen the mock drafts lately?   Most of them have us taking a QB. Just because you aren't high on these QBs doesn't mean the Panthers or other teams aren't.   If you want me to be real I just think you a Tmac homer and all you care about is us drafting him. It's why you get so defensive when people mention other prospects.   Be open to other people's ideas. Nobody in this thread is saying anything bad about your boy Tmac. 
    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
    • Sanders is with Tom Brady brand and that's his mentor. The Raiders owner was with Sanders taking pics at a Vegas game together.   It doesn't take much to connect the dots that Vegas will be interested in Sanders as their franchise QB. Oh yeah and guess who hasa small ownership stake in the Raiders Tom Brady.   I guess this is just another made up Madden idea by me huh?
