I guess all of this sweep talk is done and now the Canes need to hold serve at home.

Today the Islanders got the bounce…some days the sun shines on a ducks ass….Tuesday it ends.
All the comments about the empty seats. I mean, who cares? It’s not your money or worry. Let the Islanders owners worry about it. I suspect most of the comments are coming from fans whose teams missed the playoffs. By the way, I’m not an Islander fan, but if you can’t come up with something new, why say anything?
It has now got to the stage that You Tube is recommending cat content rather than hockey content during a THG video!
I think reverse sweeps aren't the impossible they once were. For this Isles team, if they believe in themselves, anything is possible.
One game at a time. Let’s go Islanders! 💙🧡💙🧡💙🧡💙🧡
All this talk about rangers scoring 5v5 when Carolina can’t even do it in 4 periods
My bracket is so busted so this helps me not bust yet
Isles fan: probably not ..
This series should be tied at least 2-2. Its more evenly matched than people think. The Isles might not be as skilled overall as the Canes, but they are a proud gritty team that plays with a lot of heart and passion. The breaks seemed to go Carolin's way the first 3 games, but if Lady Luck decides to even things out, anything can happen!
As a Rangers fan im looking for this series to continue. A tired Vanes team would be great and Andersen isnt playing amazing right now.
NYI yeah they play well enough during major portions of these games but they just don't have enough of high end talent to score enough goals to win. They definitely need to add a top end goal scorer.
Less and less impressed by Hurricanes as we go on…bad on me picking them to win the East. They still lack that high end offensive punch that has held them back in just about ever playoff run.
"Ref, you're an asshole" is such a New York thing to say too😂
Unpopular opinion: OT period should be played in full no matter what, not end with the first goal.
I'm an Isles fan and I have to admit that Carolina is a fantastic team. We can certainly compete with them when we're 5 on 5, but the Hurricanes are just an incredible team. They're playing at the top of their game and are a force to be reckoned with. I'll always be proud to be an Islanders fan, though. Our team always puts up a fight and works incredibly hard. We're the complete opposite of the Maple Leafs, who seem to lack the grit and determination that our team demonstrates every postseason. LETS GO ISLANDERS.
Islanders have shown to be streaky, swing back the momentum the other way don't let round 1 end for a few more games
Isles fan here, I think this series goes 6. Maybe even 7. Canes will likely prevail tho. They’re obviously the better team, but the isles aren’t going to give up. Need varly to stay strong and keep up the presence in front of Andersen. Pelech and Pulock look washed right now, but if they can muster up a little strength to win a couple board battles and not turn it over, maybe the isles make this a series.
If we can win game 5 I’ll believe we can do it this team is very streaky we had 2 6 game win streaks.
as an Isles fan while I'd like to believe they can pull the comeback off, it really does feel like an insurmountable mountain. It just doesn't feel like we are as competitive with them as we were last year when we played, and the energy on the road hasn't been great. With this next game being on the road and being a must win, I don't have the best feeling, but the Isles have surprised me before so maybe they will again. Who knows.
Yes, Canes up 3 games to 1, but Isles have been close every game. Series could be easily 2-2
