Yeah it is. Liquor store by me can’t keep it on the shelf.

Best bang for the buck is Larceny. Check that out. Blantons makes Buffalo Trace, both good but hard to get sometimes and pricey. For a really great bottle check out Rabbit Hole (reddish label). Superb.

Looks like Anderson in net for Canes tomorrow
- Vukota

Thought he may make a change. Anderson seems to be a coin flip for the Canes imo. He’s either really good or real bad from game to game in the playoffs over his career. Hopefully we see the latter. He has been sitting for a while hopefully that jams him up a bit. Have to find a way to get more pucks to the net.

That's kinda odd. Raanta has been sufficient

To be fair we haven’t really challenged him all that much but he has let in some pretty bad goals this series.

According to Stefan Rosner they didn’t practice the PP today at practice.

Their PP practice should only cover winning the faceoff, skating the puck back to your own end, and shooting it over the glass to negate the penalty

Right now, not giving up a shorty is a successful PP.

Worked last game with Dobson’s stupid (frank)ing penalty.

All kidding aside I think it’s hysterical that they at the very least didn’t practice it if true. If they had even a bad PP instead of an abysmal one we may have already won this series. Put Pulock on the first PP unit and call it a day. Guy has been probably our best player this series and is moving the puck well. Dobson has been (frank)ing awful on it.

Not much to practice. It’s the same play every single time. Drop pass to Barzal on the isles blue line and let him try and beat the entire canes team on their blue line.

Jack Drury won't make the trip to Long Island

Vasily Ponomarev will come along for Game 6. Led the Chicago Wolves with 24 goals this season.

I'd laugh...but this may actually be a good strategy. Isles aren't half bad 4-on-4...

Check out Widow Jane if you like Blantons. Blantons is my personal #1, but Widow Jane is much cheaper, and comes close.
