Apparently the Islanders just set a record, that was the fastest 4 goals in the history of the playoffs. 

This Islanders team has grit, balls. They played a hell of a game tonight.

Also what's with this nonsense that that the refs can just call the game with a few seconds left? 2nd time it's happened this playoffs. I get the score is out of reach but I just don't care for it. 

Agreed. They're really taking this "managing the game" thing to the next level.

I get it, though. If they don't call the game, and a player gets hurt during a stupid scrap or something - Guess who gets blamed? The refs

.968 sv% on 31 shots for Sorokin. We just can’t compete with the likes of him, Shesterkin, Ullmark, etc. 

I truly hope Schmid can become that guy in the next few years. 

Prior to Boston Ullmark was a .917 sv% and career 2.5 GAA

Not questioning Shesterkin and Sorokin's insane ability, but Ullmark needed time.

 

Vanecek is a little below Ullmark's career numbers (2.59 and .909) with 5ish years less experience

Schmid's first two seasons are about the same as Ullmark.

In either case, lucky for us, we have a much better team than the one Ullmark "developed" under. We have a solid amount of good pieces in place, we just need to cut the dead weight and bring in the right voice(s) behind the bench.

I just read on NHL Network that the Carolina Hurricanes are 0-8 on the road through their last 8 playoff road games after the loss last night. 

It can always get worse.

Feels sorta misleading at least cause they still won the first round with Boston, they went 7 with Boston and the home team won every game. Then the home team won every game in the second round with the Rangers until Carolina lost at home in game 7 but yeah if they win game 3 or 4 at MSG and they probably win that series. 

So far the home team has one every game in this series but if Carolina wins games 4 they are up 3-1 and probably win the series so who cares.

The point moreso was the that Devils haven't lost that many playoff road games in the last two years, but sure.

Three third periods goals for Winnipeg to come back and tie Vegas and force OT.

I would love something like this between one of our players and a Ranger fan after a Devs goal tonight 🤣

You didn't see the Hughes goal???? Maddog you're a psychic.
