| Cappy - "I think the guys know exactly how they have to play. It's a situation where we're not going to say too much as coaches. We're just going to let them play within the team concept, go out and have some fun and try to close them out if we can. It's all about our fans and the atmosphere that's going to be in that building. We have to feed off our crowd and that's the big thing." Fransie - "We had a chance last year in Game 7 to finish it but this is the first time we're going back with three wins and have a chance to close it out at home. So hopefully we're going to come out and respond the right way." Hammer - "The last one is always the hardest one to win. We have an opportunity to do it in our barn, so we have to prepare." The Captain - Our fans know the opportunity we have, and our goal as players is not to get too carried away but also feed off their energy. Its the next game and we know how desperate Florida will be, so we have to be able to match that. |
They'll need bad calls and fluke goals to beat TB.
And the obligatory playoff backup goalie. Woops...wrong team.
For christ sake, the guy got a penalty shot in OT.

Interesting - before round 1 is even over yet...

What a series - lets go #Isles!
8:09 PM - 24 Apr 2016
If fans can suspend allegiances for a moment and look at it unbiased, there is a mountain of evidence pointing at Tavares as the best athlete in NY right now.

I can't see them going wednesday/thursday and have 2 games in the books before the other series even start yet. so if it's wednesday/saturday, tehre are 2 options for games 3 and 4. monday/tuesday at barclays. or tuesday/friday.
wed/sat/tues/fri would be nice. 2 days off in between each of the 1st 4 games.
I haven't gotten anything from the team, but Overlook is always the place in the city for Isles playoff games. I was there for the Quine game (I can't believe that sentence exists). Not quite as packed as when the Isles did their official shindig, but definitely a couple dozen people, all there for the same reason.

Wow, hope they cleared that with Bettman.
Is there any chance Lee would be able to make it back if we made a run to the cup?

I don't mind beating teams at or near full strength. Especially when we're not (I do miss Lee; the Isles certainly do as well). That said, he's wearing a non-contact jersey so it'll still be a while before he's a full go. They are more optimistic to have Stralman back for this series than they are Stamkos.

Gibson was returned to BPT today. Looks like Berube gets first chair as backup but it seems like Halak may not be far off from being able to take the backup slot.

As long as Halak stays the backup that's fine.
Can't just give him the reigns
Note the open browser tabs too, lol

Already thinking about tomorrow.
Isles need to come out fast and take advantage of TB needing to get rid of some rust not having played in a while.
Get. Pucks. On. Net.
I'm more worried about the opposite.
Isles just had a very tough, physical, draining series. I hope they don't think they can take the foot off the gas

TB did not have a tough series so maybe they let their guard down.

Agreed. And I think the quick turnaround works against us. Going to be very difficult to win game 1. Still optimistic for a split in the first 2 games, but game 1 is not going to be easy at all.
Keeps them in the flow of playing
Is this official?
How long do they typically take to announce the full Round 2 schedule? I also need to know for the following weekend and the home games.
Game 2 is Saturday at 3PM
Game 3: Tuesday
Game 4: Friday
The rest is TBD

Game 6: Tuesday, May 10
