Have you ever looked at a sports photo and thought of a funny caption? We have, and did a collection of some for the 2019-20 season. Now, we are continuing that with the NHL qualifying series which began recently. We are collecting some photos with humorous captions added to entertain you during this postseason play. Today we cover the New York Islanders<\/a> vs the Florida Panthers<\/a> comic captions for the 2019-20 postseason.<\/p>\n

New York Islanders vs Florida Panthers<\/h2>\n

The New York Islanders Were Too Much for Panthers in NHL Qualifying Series<\/h3>\n

The Islanders took a quick two games to none lead in the qualifying series before the 10th ranked Panthers salvaged Game 3 to stave off elimination. It was clear who the better team was, as the Islanders won two straight to send the Florida club home dreaming of Alexis Lafreniere<\/strong><\/a>. They will have a 12.5 percent chance of acquiring the first overall pick.<\/p>\n

The Islanders were paced in scoring by Anthony Beauvillier<\/a><\/strong> who collected three goals and two assists including two goals in the decisive Game 4. Jean-Gabriel Pageau<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>also pitched in with three lamplighters. Semyon Varlamov<\/a><\/strong> was spot on in the net. He had a 3-1 record with a .932 save percentage and a sparkling 1.77 goals-against-average. Hard to beat those stats. New York will play the winner of Sunday’s game between the Boston Bruins<\/a> and Washington Capitals<\/a> in the first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.<\/p>\n

The Islanders are a disciplined club under the leadership of Barry Trotz<\/strong>. He gets whatever is needed from his troops and is a great strategist. It should be an entertaining first-round matchup.<\/p>\n
