Second Round: New York vs. Carolina

[hockeyfan1]

Isles on the brink. Hopefully they fall back to earth next year.

I hope it's a sweep and then somebody trolls them with a "Congratulations on making it to the second round, Islanders!  Why don't you put it on a big banner and put it up there in the rafters with all your other legends?"

At least, they were able to do what the Leafs couldn?t do or supposed to do ? win a round.

Yup. Hurricanes are a good story. I think CBJ-CAR Eastern Final would be interesting. Not traditional but very interesting. SCF otoh might be meehhh.

I think this is the dream scenario for Bettman and the board of directors.  ;D

There is a League mandate the Canes must have a Staal on their club for every Cup run
Also, Mac has the best dollar value of any contract in the NHL 8)

Bye Islanders, you won exactly one more game than the Leafs in the playoffs

So so sad for the Islanders and their fans.  If only I could be there I'd hug them close and tell them everything will be all right again ....someday.

Love those black unies with the flag. Good fan base there, very raucous crowd.

It definitely isn?t a good fan base, it?s easy to sing when you?re winning.

A good fan base wouldn?t have left the building half empty most of the time.
