amato 3,210 Report post Posted April 10, 2019 Islanders up early in this one. Should be one of the closer series imo. Go isles, of course. 1-1 courtesy of the hot dog man himself. Can't give Kessel a wide open slot to shoot from. 1 Dabura reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also, the more home games they play in the playoffs, the more playoff revenue they get. I'd forgotten about the pick tho. That's a good point.

Because ur supposed to root for them to crash and burn as quickly as possible. Isles going out in the 2nd round doesnt change the pick all that much, and its the lesser of 2 evils. 1 chaps80 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I probably just don't (irrationally) hate the Pens (and Crosby) as much as some Wings fans though... But then again, I'm on kinda on that level with the Leafs, and I'd still rather the outcome that benefits the Wings over one that would hinder the Leafs (or any team)...

I used to hate teams that found ways to consistently beat the Wings despite us being better than them on paper, but now the Wings are one of those teams. 2 hours ago, Neomaxizoomdweebie said: Because ur supposed to root for them to crash and burn as quickly as possible.
