I'm not confident in VV and even less confident in Blackwood. If we had a Sorokin or Shesterkin, then I'd feel confident. But heading into the postseason with these two, I expect very little. Especially with the braindead defense in front of them.
With that said, playing the Islanders is maddening. They completely take the Devils out of their game every single time we play them and the Devils have no answer. Palms turns into Ovechkin whenever he faces us now and they knock down our players like bowling pins. It's getting old.
If we play them in the playoffs we'll maybe win one game. But I think we'd get swept. Especially under Lindy "no adjustments" Ruff.
