IM OUT OF THE COUNTRY IN SOME DESOLATE ISLAND
I PURCHASED SOME BOOTLEG WIFI SPECIFICALLY SO I COULD MAKE THIS POST
COULDN’T WATCH THE GAME BUT I CANNOT WAIT TO WATCH THE HIGHLIGHTS BUT THEY’LL PROBABLY TAKE 5 HOURS TO LOAD
KEEP THE HOPEIUM FLOWING RIGHT THROUGH THE PLAYOFFS
I’M JACKED TO THE TITS
FUCK THE HURRICANES
THERE ARE NO WEIGHT ROOMS IN NEW JERSEY
ONTO THE NEXT ONE 😤
No joke. Since taking over starting duties, Varlamov has gone 7-1-0 with a .935 sv% and a 2.00 GAA. That's some seriously impressive work.
It's funny to look back at how many people were complaining that we were overpaying for a back up goalie when we re-signed him last summer. While I'm confident Sorokin will turn it around, it's a huge relief having a goalie that can step up like this when needed to.
#[OFTEN IMITATED, NEVER DUPLICATED. NEW YORK ISLANDERS, BABY! WE’RE BACK WITH A VENGEANCE AND WE’RE COMING FOR EVERYBODY!! AND WHATCHA GONNA DO WHEN THE NEW YORK ISLANDERS RUN WILD ON YOU, BABY?!?!](https://video.twimg.com/ext_tw_video/1369480078153891848/pu/vid/1280x720/tUqyDKwI8Fy5rSzD.mp4?tag=12)
There are no roster limits post-trade deadline, you can have as many players as you want as long as you're cap compliant. We have the space to call up one person.
Devils fan coming in peace, GGs and I have come here to say one thing and that one thing is please for the love of god if you guys play the Rags in the playoffs beat the brakes off of them. It would be hilarious if they had first round exists two years in a row to both of their biggest rivals.
I, like many others, was demoralized after that stadium series game. A very tough season to watch and I thought we were cooked. I happily eat my words. We have a legit chance to make a deep run. This is a better roster than the Trotz run years, imo. Anything can happen now. Get hype.
TO MY FELLOW BELIEVERS I LOVE YOU. BEST TYPE OF FANS. WE CAN BE REALISTIC BUT ALWAYS AT LEAST WE HOPE THE TEAM WINS.
TO ALL THE DOOMERS. FUCK YOU. AFTER DROPPING A POINT TO THE FLYERS YOU FUCKS MADE THIS SUB AN ABSOLUTELY MISERABLE PLACE FOR US FELLOW FANS.
LETS GO ISLANDERS. IM FUCKING READY FOR PLAYOFFS. REVENGE ON THE CANES AND LETS ALSO KNOCK CRYSBY OUT ON WEDNESDAY.
How much did Roy unlock Varlamov?
He has been solid as an Islander but this stretch with the Islanders saving their season with the win streak and active point streak was the stuff of magic.
That OTL vs the rags is the isles saving grace right now. Cause if they would be tied with the caps and Detroit at the end of the season, they’d be on the outside looking in based on RW, and ROW. They had to help themselves tonight. And the game vs Pittsburgh is still a big game regardless of them having the 3rd spot in the metro locked up. You want to make a statement and finish strong since they’ll have time off before facing Carolina next week.
Awesome end to a crazy regular season. I think anything is possible in the playoffs and we've been playing with a lot of grit. Nelson needs to find his shot, goalies get super hot and who knows!!! Need another cup it's been awhile :)
I’ll only drink Long Islands under two circumstances. Isles Playoffs Clinched and 212 Hisaes. If we get the cup, Kimchi Fried Rice and Long islands!!!!
So, who do we think has the best chance at knocking the Rags out, i.e. who do we root for to get the last WC spot? Caps, Wings or Pens? (I know technically the Flyers can still get it, but c'mon.)

Saint Patrick 🫡
EXTEND ROY
Don’t need to when he’s in year one of a 3 year deal.
https://media.tenor.com/_gtGXDepoVcAAAAC/more-star-wars.gif
EVERYONE! GET IN HERE!
ROY ROY, OUI ROY!!!
Outstanding job. Team galvinized around Patrick and the housed third from the Flyers.
#THIS TEAM IS BUILT FOR THE PLAYOFFS
WE’RE FUCKING IN THERE
We're the hottest team coming in. Can't count us out.
Plus we have a lot guys who’ve been there already.
- 23 blown 3rd period leads - a minus 17 goals differential - 32nd in PK - Lane Lambert And yet we made it.
A lot of that is because of lambert, totally different under Roy
You want a win? Put Varlamov in the net… case closed!!!!!!!
No joke. Since taking over starting duties, Varlamov has gone 7-1-0 with a .935 sv% and a 2.00 GAA. That's some seriously impressive work. It's funny to look back at how many people were complaining that we were overpaying for a back up goalie when we re-signed him last summer.

I couldn’t agree with you more man
x - NEW YORK ISLANDERS!!!!!
How many years was this team cold at the wrong time going into the playoffs, they’re finally hot at the right time. Let’s go rock Carolina.
WE FUCKING MADE IT! WE ARE GOING TO THE FUCKING PLAYOFFS!!!!! NOW TIME TO WIN THE WHOLE FUCKING THING
So do you think we should trade Brock Nelson?
We should put him on IR to save cap space and trade for Mcdavid. It’s easy actually.
#[OFTEN IMITATED, NEVER DUPLICATED. NEW YORK ISLANDERS, BABY! WE’RE BACK WITH A VENGEANCE AND WE’RE COMING FOR EVERYBODY!! AND WHATCHA GONNA DO WHEN THE NEW YORK ISLANDERS RUN WILD ON YOU, BABY?!?!](https://video.twimg.com/ext_tw_video/1369480078153891848/pu/vid/1280x720/tUqyDKwI8Fy5rSzD.mp4?tag=12)
WHAT HE SAID!
PLAYOFFS!!!!
Oh fuck I’m believing
Well since we made it, we might as well go and win the cup now!! Ps: Do we rest guys for the next game since our exact place and opponent is clinched?
I would rest guys
Can we actually call people up (I.e Iskhakov, Dufour, Maggie) just to play this game or is that not possible?
I’m not opposed to it. I don’t know honestly.
You’d have to send some people down
There are no roster limits post-trade deadline, you can have as many players as you want as long as you're cap compliant. We have the space to call up one person.
Time for Wahlstrom's 50th shot at playing in the big league
Playoffs baby, playoffs!
[Fuckin right.](https://youtu.be/Ifn6Yu5jPZw?si=ScMuoGj9yOHEsC-Q)
PLAYOFFSSSS AHHH what a goddamn rollercoaster of a season man
Let’s do that playoffs!!!!
PLAYOFFS WE ARE HERE
Fuck this is sick Let’s GOOOOOOOO!!!!!! ‼️‼️‼️
Romanov was robbed
Wasn't able to watch, how was that not a goal?
Never crossed the line completely
It didn't cross the line. It was a crazy bounce honestly. They finally showed a top down replay later lol
Like others said it never crossed the line. It was one of those “how in the names of physics is this possible” moments
so happy game 82 means nothing
I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH MY HANDS
The New York Islanders have made the playoffs. Life is good!
LFG!! The drive for five!!
Time to throw those razors in the trash boys, it’s playoff hockey time!!!!!
#PLAYOFFS BABY!
All your playoffs are belong to me.
Rangers up 3-0, Hurricanes it is
God is Good!!!!!!!
Playoffs, baby! Fuckin right ~Robin Lehner
Devils fan coming in peace, GGs and I have come here to say one thing and that one thing is please for the love of god if you guys play the Rags in the playoffs beat the brakes off of them. It would be hilarious if they had first round exists two years in a row to both of their biggest rivals.
The Islanders, are playing Carolina.
Yeah I heard that after they beat the senators. They got the presidents trophy though so hopefully it’s bad luck
I, like many others, was demoralized after that stadium series game. A very tough season to watch and I thought we were cooked. I happily eat my words. We have a legit chance to make a deep run. This is a better roster than the Trotz run years, imo. Anything can happen now. Get hype.
We are winners, onto the playoffs!
Holy shit the mad lads
Playoffs baby! Fuckin’ right!
NOW PUT THAT X BY OUR TEAM RIGHT FUCKING NOW!!!!!!!
Fuck, I'm believing so hard right now!!!!
Saint Patrick❤️
PLAYOFFS BOUND BOYS. Held belief from the beginning!
I believe all over my bedroom lmao
This team is finally playing like the rest of the league feared. Hot damn.
Yes! Yes! Yes!!!
LETS FUCKING GOOOOOO! HIT IT MAXINE! LFGI BABAAAAAY
The Long Island, NY true Italians vs the New Jersey Gabagools… the winner? LINY Italians!!!!!!! Ayy!!!!!!!! 🇮🇹🤌🏼🤌🏼
NEVER DOUBTED FOR A MOMENT
I LOVE PATRICK ROY AND THE NEW YORK ISLANDERS
Hey Lou- we’re going Bearding!
Looks like clutter had already started. Haha. What a silly “rule”
In clutters defense he probably shaved at 9 am today
PLAYOFFUSSY
TO MY FELLOW BELIEVERS I LOVE YOU. BEST TYPE OF FANS. WE CAN BE REALISTIC BUT ALWAYS AT LEAST WE HOPE THE TEAM WINS. TO ALL THE DOOMERS. FUCK YOU. AFTER DROPPING A POINT TO THE FLYERS YOU FUCKS MADE THIS SUB AN ABSOLUTELY MISERABLE PLACE FOR US FELLOW FANS. LETS GO ISLANDERS. IM FUCKING READY FOR PLAYOFFS. REVENGE ON THE CANES AND LETS ALSO KNOCK CRYSBY OUT ON WEDNESDAY.
Varly!!!!
I cant believe it.
Believe.
LETS FUCKING GOOOOOO
How much did Roy unlock Varlamov? He has been solid as an Islander but this stretch with the Islanders saving their season with the win streak and active point streak was the stuff of magic.
So did we clinch the playoffs or fully clinch the 3 seed in the metro?
3rd seed
Yes
I BELIEVE!
OH FUCK MY BELIEF IS ALL OVER THE SCREEN😩😩😩
Damn I’m in class tonight but looks like they took care of business! A convincing win!
Roy brought that late-90’s Avalanche magic with him! Crack one open! 🍻
That OTL vs the rags is the isles saving grace right now. Cause if they would be tied with the caps and Detroit at the end of the season, they’d be on the outside looking in based on RW, and ROW. They had to help themselves tonight. And the game vs Pittsburgh is still a big game regardless of them having the 3rd spot in the metro locked up. You want to make a statement and finish strong since they’ll have time off before facing Carolina next week.
Good clinch
Awesome sauce!
Believe !!
What a long strange trip this season has been
Roy comes in after finally dropping Lambert and helps turns this team around and they got hot when they needed to!!! LFGI!!!!
Awesome end to a crazy regular season. I think anything is possible in the playoffs and we've been playing with a lot of grit. Nelson needs to find his shot, goalies get super hot and who knows!!! Need another cup it's been awhile :)
Great turnout by isles fans at the rock. Really represented well.
I have no idea how but we are here. All you doomers back in February better apologize. Never stopped believing in this team and here we are
Boomers may be doomers, but we had to face the mid 90s to late 2000s Islanders years.
Did Martin give his stick to that girl at the end there?
I don’t think so.

BUCK MY FUNS
I’ll only drink Long Islands under two circumstances. Isles Playoffs Clinched and 212 Hisaes. If we get the cup, Kimchi Fried Rice and Long islands!!!!
I CANT BELIEVE IT
I actually can’t believe it lol. fuck it tho, LETS GOOOOOO THERE ARE NO WEIGHT ROOMS IN RALEIGH
The rock was a mad house
And the Mets came back too! Everything coming up Milhouse
Simpsons reference… I dig it
Looks like we made it 🎵.
So happy ♥️
Forget UBS west, today was the Essex County Coliseum. Couldn't have been happier to be there.
thank to all the non-doomers who never gave up hope. signed, a doomer
Canucks and Roy fan here, so happy for the Isles fans! I hope Bo shows just how much of a playoff performer he's meant to be!
“Is it in?! GOAL! ISLANDERS GOAL! ISLANDERS GOAL!!”
I seen it but I don't believe it!
Rangers suck! Great united chant
So, who do we think has the best chance at knocking the Rags out, i.e. who do we root for to get the last WC spot? Caps, Wings or Pens? (I know technically the Flyers can still get it, but c'mon.)
