The Islanders are much better at home then they are on the road. So they should try to win this game so that if they end up playing them they have home ice. I would then send the entire taxi squad to Washington tomorrow.Since we're on the road for round one regardless, I'm of two minds for this game--on one hand, it is better to be a three seed than a four seed if we advance in the playoffs. On the other hand, there isn't a ton of difference between facing the Pens and the Caps, and home ice doesn't matter as much with limited seating capacity and maybe we prioritize health over victory.
That's where I'm at, but we're rolling out the A team tonight. I think tomorrow will end up being a defacto exhibition game, depending on what the salary cap allows for call ups (they told me there would be no math).Since we're on the road for round one regardless, I'm of two minds for this game--on one hand, it is better to be a three seed than a four seed if we advance in the playoffs.

Todd is a really good dude too. Anyone that’s meet him is happy for him.It's kinda a kick ass story that the legendary Rene Rancourt retired and the Bs replaced him by pulling Todd Angily out from behind a beer counter at the Garden.
They gave him a 4 minute double minor.Still Bullshit they didn't let PAsta stay on cause "went down for injury" and only gave the guy 2... fuck off
Well 2 of it was for slashing Marchand. Then an extra two for nudging Pasta.They gave him a 4 minute double minor.
The whole reason it was after the whistle was because they had already called him for slashingThey gave him a 4 minute double minor.
Ah maybe NHL.com is wrong then. I was watching with the sound off.Well 2 of it was for slashing Marchand. Then an extra two for nudging Pasta.
Yeah it was on Marchand when he was walking into the slot. Damn you NHL.com, damn you to hell.Ah maybe NHL.com is wrong then. I was watching with the sound off.
NHL.com has it 2 for slashing Pasta, 2 for unsportsmanlike on Pasta.
It all depends on what happens in the playoffs. He does seem to enjoy it here.So how much do folks think it will take to keep Hall in Boston?
I think Pasta has an injury and that butt end caught him in the right spot... that wasn't acting.Uhhh….Pasta sold the shit out of that one. 2 extra mins is absolutely the right call. I have no idea what Jack and Brick are talking about.
If he’s that hurt that a little nudge like that causes him to drop to the ice and convulse in pain, he shouldn’t be playing and should be resting for the playoffs. I mean give me a break.I think Pasta has an injury and that butt end caught him in the right spot... that wasn't acting.
Also would explain some of his recent play...
