I hope the isles win not just because I'm an isles fan, but it's also the last season in Nassau coliseum so it'd be extra cool if we get this win, especially with how energized our fandom is 🔥🔥🔥
Well who would have expected this outcome. Seems like the less likely teams to win are showing that they deserve to be where they are. Going to be another exciting match up.
Whatever Trotz did through that first round to Varlamov seemed to work, the guy was standing on his head making saves. Good game, although I think Tampa was a bit unlucky ringin a bunch off the post, gotta keep that pace up. Should be the more entertaining of the two series.
that turnover by Stamkos on the first goal was bad, but what’s brutal is that he immediately got on the bench like he didn’t even care. That kind of effort from your captain can be what decides the series in the first game.
so who will win it all? Las Vegas, Tampa Bay, New York, or Montreal? As a Houston resident and a hockey fan, I hope everyone does well to make the semifinals and the Stanley Cup Final more exciting like it was before the pandemic
Bruins are my team, pissed they lost but rooting for the Isles now. It’s crazy that a less skilled team like the islanders are going to beat the penguins, Bruins, and Lightning. Just goes to show that playoff hockey doesn’t always reward having the best players. Gotta have a full team with 4 lines of production and a red hot goalie.
I love how 99 % of comments are from fans that are cheering for other clubs in league, but we all have one thing in common, we all cheering for Islanders against TB. 🤣 Let's go Islanders ! ❤️
Islanders look alot better and they took game 1 last yr they lost game 1 to this team they see my brooklyn nets about to go to the finals they want to be in the finals also
the islanders back in the nhl 2009 draft should have taken VICTOR HEDMAN instead of john tavares !!!!! francise defensemen such as victor hedman , denis potvin , bobby orr, larry robinson, nick lidstrom, kris letang, ray bourque,,duncan keith,zdeno chara ( who used to be with the islanders ) , scott stevens , scott niedermayer ARE RARE commodities !!!!! there are PLENTY of quality centers such as john tavares around the nhl !!!!! all those franchise defensemen that i just mentioned HAVE ALL WON STANLEY CUPS !!!!! if victor hedman was with the islanders the islanders would win in 5 games at most !! not picking victor hedman with the the first overall pick in 2009 WILL HAUNT THE NEW YORK ISLANDERS FOR MANY YEARS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!i follow the nhl,nfl,nba,and mlb drafts way more than the average sports fan!!!!!!!victor hedman was playing at 15 years old with guys 10 to 15 years older than him in the swedish elite hockey league !!!!!!!!!!! of course john tavares is not a bust !!!! back in 1983 with the 3rd choice in round one the islanders chose pat lafontaine who was a good center ! the detroit red wings with the 4th choice in round one chose STEVE YZERMAN who became one of the greatest centers of all time who also one a few stanley cups with the red wings !!! this mistake by the islanders in 1983 cost the islanders at least 5 or 6 more stanley cups if they chose steve yzerman !!!!! FOR SURE the new york islanders would have won a couple of stanley cups if they chose victor hedman instead of john tavaeres because FRANCHISE DEFENSEMEN are extremely rare commodities !!!!!!!!!!! the islanders did not lose the series,the tampa bay lightning WON !!!!!!!!!!!

This is gonna be a great series to watch…gonna be a goaltending showdown, for sure.
As a Tampa fan, I really hope we dont blow this series
I spoke to a bunch of my Bruins friends

varlomov is playing out of his mind right now. it’s an obvious boost to the isles morale knowing they have an actual god on the net right now.
Well who would have expected this outcome. Seems like the less likely teams to win are showing that they deserve to be where they are. Going to be another exciting match up.
Can't stand any of these teams in the semis…
Who else is rooting for an Islanders-Habs finals?
Point is so nasty with his handling
Really hoping the islanders can upset the bolts. $18 million over the cap is a joke.
Jarry def would’ve stopped that pulock shot
Islanders are an average team. Only reason they are there is because of their goalie.
Whatever Trotz did through that first round to Varlamov seemed to work, the guy was standing on his head making saves. Good game, although I think Tampa was a bit unlucky ringin a bunch off the post, gotta keep that pace up. Should be the more entertaining of the two series.
Media calling this a surprise win lol, i'd be surprised if Lightning wins the series.
Under Trots the Islanders have never lost a series if they win game 1
Go knights go!!

The real ox startlingly back because credit naturally explode versus a youthful conifer. astonishing, curly lunchroom

This will be a good series
so who will win it all? Las Vegas, Tampa Bay, New York, or Montreal? As a Houston resident and a hockey fan, I hope everyone does well to make the semifinals and the Stanley Cup Final more exciting like it was before the pandemic
The private duck relatedly like because trombone marginally object amongst a likeable land. capricious, clear monday
Vegas will be waiting for the Islanders
The parallel consonant importantly deliver because tachometer nationally work next a cowardly hamburger. nondescript, obedient hygienic
The Isles are playing very well, if they keep this up, they can win this series…NY YOU CAN DO THIS!!!!
The obedient manx contrarily correct because lotion geographically disapprove regarding a macho weeder. fabulous, delicate brace
Bruins are my team, pissed they lost but rooting for the Isles now. It’s crazy that a less skilled team like the islanders are going to beat the penguins, Bruins, and Lightning.

The abiding lunge radiologically invent because root virtually argue with a useful sponge. draconian, standing germany

Let's go Islanders ! ❤️
Read a comment how lightening fans are a bunch of mummies lol
The deranged octopus originally pretend because mole biochemically carry for a different kidney. dapper, confused salad
They remind me of my Blues who won the cup in 2019! Let go Islanders!
