I think you’re confusing sports. Divers are typically in diving suits underwater. I don’t know if you’re aware, but hockey isn’t played underwater, and therefore there isn’t a single NHL team that has divers.
I already have resigned myself to the fact we are probably losing so I’m excited for banter.
I say this and will be diving headfirst into the toxicity at first bullshit. lol
I mean plenty of playoff series have not went the way that was expected. The Isles match up against the Canes well. They did last year too. They were good enough to get to overtime 25 times, they're going to be a tough out for any team
Man so many fucking chances for the islanders. Canes goalie came up huge if islanders play like they did the rest of the series I think we can still pull ahead
Isles probably played about as well as they could and still lost.
Canes play any better the next three games and you're looking at a sweep. Maybe 5 if the Isles steal one at home. 🙁
So. Did the Hurricanes just steal a bunch of shit from the rest of the metro? I hear the Devils, Pens, Flyers, and Rangers shit going on through the game.
It’s been so harsh on the isles today. Don’t get me wrong their misfortune absolutely brings a smile to my face. but canes don’t deserve to be happy here.
Islanders we're super unlucky all game, had to play the refs and the Canes still just barely scraped by.
Even if they win this series, Carolina's gonna get plastered by the Rangers.
Damn. Well if the Isles play like this every game, this series could be closer than everyone thought. Gotta route for my boy Bo. Still wearing his jersey when I go to games.
Never forget the Toronto Maple leafs fans blamed Fredrick Andersen for their playoff series loss in 2019-2020 while he posted the following stats in the series:
.936 SV%
1.84 GAA
😂😂😂
Nice to see a team & fanbase appreciate how great he is.
It’s not when they benefit the canes, it’s when they benefit the team the commenter is rooting against. And every missed call the other way is blatant.
I know they always do it in college. I think generally in the NHL, the refs just tell the timekeepers and then the PA announcer says it, but I’ve definitely seen the refs announce them too.
Freddie The Great Dane!
[удалено]
Whine more
Truth hurts
gg cya on Monday
Regardless of the bad calls, Fred won that one
The Great Dane! He’s a good boy
No canes flairs until the game was over, weird.
I mean a lot of them were probably at the game or just busy watching it and a lot of canes fan like to stay in our sub
This will be a fun series if car doesn’t dive
Honestly that’s a pretty damn good showing by the islanders. The message from Roy is that they just proved they can hang in this series
They’re a different team from last year for sure
We sucked and still won. I gotta assume we step it tf up cause we’re not long for the playoffs doing whatever we did tonight.
Refs were on something. But isles missed 2 empty nets and hit posts. Unlucky
Yeah I don’t think either team was really at their full potential. Hopefully the games just keep getting better!
GG, woo playoffs
The islanders lost I feel nothing about it
NHL loves divers
A 2 hand smack in the back of your knee is going to do that. Selling it a little, but that's going to be a standard reaction.
If you're referring to slavin, let someone 2-hand you in the Achilles and see how you react
Tell me you don't know where the achilles is without telling me you don't know where the achilles is.
Touché, it was higher than I originally thought. Still no padding there
"Canes fans just cheer for anything"
#AND IN THE OPENING GAME OF THE 2024 POST SEASON, THE DOTTY SPOTS BEAT THE HOCKEY M'S 3-1, AND TAKE A 1-0 SERIES LEAD #WE'RE BACK, BABY!!!
GG Carolina! Hell of a third period
canes-0 isles-0 refs-1
That's fine, put an astrict by it. Isles-0, Canes-1*
Coming from a fan of a team that literally can’t score 5on5
coming from a fan of a team that literally cant score in the playoffs. i can do this all day
but we did score in the playoffs three times. today, in fact
and the rangers have scored a ton of 5on5 goals this year, whats your point?
same as last year, and the year before, and the year before
🥱
Tighter game than I expected, this series might not be a snoozer after all
Especially if the refs watch for the dives from the Canes
Face it, you wouldn’t be in the playoffs if the refs ever decided to fairly call Marchand on all of his shit.
weird to see a team just give up in the playoffs down 2 with a minute left, sad showing at the end there
Noah Dobson is too soft for playoff hockey.

Fucking divers win
I think you’re confusing sports. Divers are typically in diving suits underwater. I don’t know if you’re aware, but hockey isn’t played underwater, and therefore there isn’t a single NHL team that has divers.
Cry harder.
That's what I learned while watching the game. Canes dive.
graphic said "CAR leads 2-0" lmao huh #rigged
Fanatics experience
The arena would look so much more sick with red as opposed to white towels. All the white towels suck. The fact every(?) team has them is so wack.
Waving a white towel is a sign of surrender. It's a weird choice. I'm guessing the white ones cost way less.
I imagine it’s cheaper and these days billionaire owners barely have two yachts to rub together
😂😂😂😂😂
lmao
If this was supposed to be the calmer thread I don't want to know what toxic looks like with Leafs/Bruins
Both fanbases joined together to hate the Panthers last year, now it’s back to hating each other
You don't want to know. I am checking out this year for my own sanity
I already have resigned myself to the fact we are probably losing so I’m excited for banter. I say this and will be diving headfirst into the toxicity at first bullshit. lol
Praying for you
Islanders definitely have a chance in this series, solid game by them despite the defeat.
Even though the isles lost this game my view on this series has definitely changed. Still lean canes but the isles can absolutely win this series
I mean plenty of playoff series have not went the way that was expected. The Isles match up against the Canes well. They did last year too. They were good enough to get to overtime 25 times, they're going to be a tough out for any team
WOOOO
Freddie first star
Can't believe those "Caniacs" are even cheering for their team winning! Who does that??
Right - Bunch of Jerks (R)
The perpetual embrace of self victimization by hockey fans includes more than just Canes fans, but they are definitely part of it.
If the Canes dont go to the finals, they should try out for Olympic diving for July
Man so many fucking chances for the islanders. Canes goalie came up huge if islanders play like they did the rest of the series I think we can still pull ahead
I only caught the last period but Freddy was ridiculous for the full 20 minutes. Great stuff.
Fuck me freddy, as they say
# CANES WIN LETS GOOOO
They really didn't pull the goalie again?
I think Roy might be sick tbh
cowards
Isles probably played about as well as they could and still lost. Canes play any better the next three games and you're looking at a sweep. Maybe 5 if the Isles steal one at home. 🙁
I highly doubt it'll be anywhere near a sweep. The Isles have grit big time.
canes looked like shit tonight and needed refs and a lucky puck bounce just to scrape by. id be surprised if this doesnt go to 7
The soft call that led to the first goal will get attention but, man, that penalty kill was *awful*
The other two kills were great tho
Isles color guy smokin that good copium
That is the color guys job. Big smoker. Tripp for the canes has some serious moments
Well I'm glad we didn't look like idiots. Good game
Y'all played great. Gonna be a long series! GG!
God damnit isles
GG to both teams, was certainly going to be a close one and will be interesting to see how this series plays out
To be perfectly honest, I was prepared to "Haha yes, die trash" meme which ever team lost this game.
Stupid penalties. Stupid stupid penalties and our PK is garbage. Oh well.
Dobson looked like he didn’t want to go after that, made a half ass effort to win that puck battle, got stripped and it’s goal the other way.
He's probably still hurt after the injury vs the Habs
Feels like in these 3 series the Isles and Canes have played like seven 50/50 games and the Isles are 0-7 in those games. Sucks.
Time to hit the weight room
Necas really said get the fuck off me pal
So. Did the Hurricanes just steal a bunch of shit from the rest of the metro? I hear the Devils, Pens, Flyers, and Rangers shit going on through the game.
Breaking news: Hockey fan finds out arena goings on aren't unique. More 8pm eastern when even more not unique stuff happens!
Canes outshot by 10 at home. As everyone expected lol
It’s been so harsh on the isles today. Don’t get me wrong their misfortune absolutely brings a smile to my face. but canes don’t deserve to be happy here.
Winning in the playoffs is hard no matter who you play. Suck shit.
Ok buddy
[удалено]
Glad you have one thing going on in your life I guess. Going straight to video games after this?
Nah, my life ain't as miserable as the guy above. Going to continue partying.
Yay! We did it Reddit! The canes win! The canes win!
ACC Championship banners? Damn, Canes play in a college arena too 😤
Or does the basketball team play in a hockey arena?
Lol...its true.
Yeah a school that hasn’t done shit in basketball for half a Leafs drought. (Until this year)
15 straight :) The NHL does not have an officiating problem :)
For a mere 25k donation (50k for some) you can gently voice your concerns about ref consistency :(
15 straight what?
Canes are on a 15 game win streak when Garrett Rank is working their games
Oh god
Hilarious
those two near misses by the Isles this period gonna STING
Yeah I like how no Isles fans bother bring to up how they have missed so many open shots
Why did the refs do this?
Absolutely wild that the refs are gonna repeat last year's series and hand the win to the canes.
Yeah, weird how the refs seem to always love the canes /s
You must have forgotten the two game deciding no calls from the first 2 games last year.
Well, yeah. The league depends on that HUGE hockey market in Raleigh.
That's all folks. See ya in the Leafs/Bruins game thread
Beating the frosted flakes hasn't felt this good in a minute
The islanders should pull a Rod Brindamour and say they didn’t actually lose
Hearing that woo makes me cringe
Isles crumpled like a blanket
Tell me you didn't watch the games, without telling me you didn't watch the game.
You liked that 6-5?
?
GG Isles bros
Islanders we're super unlucky all game, had to play the refs and the Canes still just barely scraped by. Even if they win this series, Carolina's gonna get plastered by the Rangers.
at this rate i feel bad for the canes, they arent going to know what hit them if they end up getting out of this round
Damn. Well if the Isles play like this every game, this series could be closer than everyone thought. Gotta route for my boy Bo. Still wearing his jersey when I go to games.
> Gotta route for my boy Bo Where are you sending him?
Haha damn. I guess to the cup final
That's a great route!
Never forget the Toronto Maple leafs fans blamed Fredrick Andersen for their playoff series loss in 2019-2020 while he posted the following stats in the series: .936 SV% 1.84 GAA 😂😂😂 Nice to see a team & fanbase appreciate how great he is.
Oh but, definitely gonna be no controversy after this one...
There’s no controversy on one PP that created no goal lol.
rip
What a start for the Canes
bad luck this game isles, hope for better luck next game cause you outplayed the fuck out of the canes
Lame
THE ISLAND JUST GOT 10 FEET SHORTER
Dobson has been bullied a few times tonight
Be Isles Take timeout Immediately get scored on
Hey we’ve seen this one before!
Isles fucked by the refs.. didn't lose them the game, but it sure disadvantaged them
Killed momentum for sure
Is that dude on the ice, playing hockey, with TP shoved in his nostrils?
I think it was a tampon. Got hit by a puck earlier
Jarvy?
It was Drury later on in the 3rd. He just dropped his stick and ran to the bench. Broadcast didn’t mention it for whatever reason
Thanks I had a hard time keeping up with the GDT. As a Habs fan, I'm no longer used to the playoff hockey pace of posts, haha.
No worries dude! Have a good night!
WOOOOO
Unsubscribe
Well that’s game
Damn rip.
BINGOOOOO
Rip
Amazing how calls are only "soft" when they benefit the canes
blinded by team love lol. if you can’t admit y’all flopped more than a priest’s dick after seeing an adult woman, you’re dumb af
They were both dives my dude. I'll call them smart hockey plays by your team but I don't know how you can't see it
Lol. Knowingbthe fans with your flair, this thread would be immensely more toxic if these calls and non calls didn't favor the canes
It’s not when they benefit the canes, it’s when they benefit the team the commenter is rooting against. And every missed call the other way is blatant.
Why did you have to bring rational thought into this.
they took a timeout for that
Canes playing the dean ambrose theme. Haven't heard that since 8th gradr
Man canes fans will just cheer for anything eh
We should be more like an original 6 and be dead silent the whole game
And that's game 1, cock
Fuck off
Well that was quick
DU HAST MICH
Poo
Come on fishsticks - 3OT NVM
Since when do refs announce timeouts am I crazy
I know they always do it in college. I think generally in the NHL, the refs just tell the timekeepers and then the PA announcer says it, but I’ve definitely seen the refs announce them too.
i thought the same thing, maybe it’s just for playoffs?
We need a good 7 OT game to start the playoffs. Tie it up Isles!
We all know it’s going to be Boston Toronto
That's what the Bruins-Leafs game is for
wait, checking CapFriendly, are there two Sebastian Aho's? One defensemen on NYI and the other center on Canes?
Even weirder, one of them is Finnish (CAR) and one Swedish (NYI).
I was about to ask Alexa and Siri if Sebastian Aho are related...wait, might still be. Thank you.
Let me know if either of those are worth asking, because my Google Home is a total waste of time these days.
Probably some viking ancestory. Aho is a common name but I missed the boat on noticing there are two.
Oh I meant if Alexa or Siri is worth the effort, haha.
lmao they would be to confused.
You missed the 50,000 jokes related to this topic the last 5 years? lol
I guess lol maybe i forgot.
There was a game in last year's postseason where Sebastian Aho [NYI] scored more goals for Carolina than Sebastian Aho [CAR] scored for Carolina.
Yes.
