Yes but it doesn’t matter. Our bush league coach can’t match AV’s genius.

Lol.

I definitely think Carter might be the best goalie they've had since Hextalls early days

That kid is something special. He seems to have everything you would want in a goaltender. They win this series he’s going to be a huge reason why. The metro between Shesterykin, Hart, and hopefully Sorokin can potentially have the best goaltenders in the league. Pretty nuts.

He’ll start Varly he’s rested now and he will get another shot but I’m guessing with a real short leash. I’m not in the mood to debate about it because my opinion is what it is and it isn’t going to change but he wasn’t good. He has been great so far since we started up again but today bought back memories of why I’m not a fan. Hopefully he gets back on track tomorrow.

I hear you, and understand...but, he's been awesome since we restarted. Worst case scenario, we've got a totally capable 1B. This comeback was a total reassurance for our team. Hart ain't gonna win every game for em...we're in the drivers seat if we continue this play.

Meanwhile, Tampa is embarrassing the Bruins. They chased Halak from the game. Now it's 6 - 1 after they scored a couple of goals against some back-up.

Agreed I said that. Let’s hope he bounces back tomorrow.

Either Tampa is much better than I thought or the Boston isn't nearly as good.

Maybe a little of both. Tampa is indeed a very good team, and Boston misses Rask.

Aren't you banned for your "Hayes" comment?

No matter how bad Boston is, they always give us fits. If we mansge to get out of this series, I'd actually rather have Tampa

No. If Hayes had scored the game winner, then I would have been banned.

I hope we get to face either of those teams, because that means we beat Philly.

But seriously, as the old Chinese proverb goes, be careful what you wish for. It's true that Boston gives us problems, but so does Tampa who beat us a few years back in the playoffs.......rather easily.

Is this as bad as when Upstate invaded the Leafs board just before the Leafs began that miraculous comeback?

Not very good... lol. Let’s chat after tomorrow’s game. This is exactly how they didn’t lose back to back through the season. Exactly how they played in round robin. Exactly how they beat Montreal. If I were you guys I’d be concerned the first line decided to wake up. If the third line wakes up tomorrow I like our goaltending and defense vs yours. Lol isn’t very good... gtfoh
- Jup16

Ok we’ll talk tomorrow, your goaltending and D were so much better than ours in game 1. Game 2 went to overtime and your goalie stood on his head and ours had a tough game. It’s the Islanders with home ice and the advantage with match ups the next two games. We did our job winning 1 of the first 2 games. Not to mention your great defensive team gave up a 3 goal lead. That isn’t to convincing as far as a good defensive team. I’ll put my money on the Isles. That said it will be a tough series.

- JohnScammo

YES, Yes it is!

Think you underestimate how tough that Montreal team was.... well coached and very tough system. I think today you saw flyers were better coached and made wiser coaching and system adjustments, those adjustments worked. You guys have trotz and we have about 24 hour advantage right now as far as limited prep time to adjust.

Let the games begin.
- Jup16

Good for you. Flyers got lucky today we didn’t go up 2-0. Isles in 6. Now fuk off.

YES, Yes it is!

- nyisles7

I just had a bad feeling when they didn't score on that penalty near the end of regulation. Tomorrow I will bring more positivity!

Seriously though are we going over there after game one 4-0 win and trying to talk poop? We should be up 2-0 w all the momentum but we’re not so now we gotta regroup and win tomorrow.

i dont think most of us even know who that gloating brainlet is. Isles are scary and Flyers were incredibly lucky to get the W off of a fluky goal in OT. our bottom 6 in particular got CAVED in all game long.
