We’ll beat Tampa and then lose to Chicago and Columbus. We’ve all seen this movie before.

Search your feelings. You know it be true.

Went to the gsme tonight. My expectations were low, still wanted them to win. Panthers fans are fuking idiots. Don’t know the game. Chanting ref you suck on obvious penalties. Never seen a dumber fan base.

Aren't they all transplanted Rags fans?

Ha-ha! No searching is required. I have to say Barzal is playing like he wants to make the playoffs. Can you imagine if Varly's play get this team into the playoffs?

Didn’t get to see the game last night but certainly happy they won. Cats are a good team for sure.
This maybe unpopular but I would ride Varly as long as he is winning. He played well.

Don't think there's any reason for that to be an unpopular opinion. I'm obviously a pretty big Sorokin fan but Varlamov has been the better goalie lately.

Obvious Darth Vader reference should have been obvious.

You have to talk to your boy chief. Barry is no longer coaching so vacation is over. Sorkin has to be Super Sorokin now.

Oh some will piss and moan it’s just some of this fan bases narrative regardless of what is or isn’t being done.
Look The Rags gave Sesterkin a break and played Quick for a bit and it worked. Sesterkin found his game again. Not saying sOrOkin lost his game but in my opinion he’s just not the same since before the All Star Game.
He’s played a lot of hockey and the crazy amount of shots per game under Lame’s D optional let’s score more goals game plan was ridiculous. He could use a break mentally and physically in my opinion. Get him ready for the PO’s.

I do not believe the islanders will or deserve to make the playoffs this year. However, I would like to see some sort of positive direction to end the season.

I do not think anyone believes Sorokin had a good season. Do I think it is something the team should be concerned with? Talk to me at the end of next season. If we are talking about the same things, then yes. Otherwise, it is a blip on an inconsistent season.

Who here is the one that joking always states they talk to Ledecky?

Who ever it is, please tell them to go hard after Sam Reinhart. It is going to be tough for the Cats to resign him to what he is worth. Yes, I know FLA has no tax but imagine him with barzal and horvat?

Team will then need to move Nelson for cap space. You can include Cal and Matty in the swan song.

Spring is in the air.

I would not worry about Sorokin at this time.

I did talk to Ledecky once. I cannot see the Islanders on Reinhart’s radar even if they have the Cap space. If I do speak to Ledecky again it will be about one person and one person only.

Varlamov will start, per Roy.

Said he earned it.

It is true, Casey on Nelson’s wing with Palms and Bo with Engvall and JGP on his wings.

I was wondering if he had a nagging injury which would be why they played Sorokin so much. I guess they feel he's good to go.
