The puck has dropped!

This is exciting. I just joined this board a few days ago and now Hockey has our own section, and a number of guys from the old forum are here too!

Let's talk some Isles-Oilers 1981 quarter finals. And while we are at it, let's discuss 1984 Isles-Habs. Canadiens finish season with not even 80 points and have home ice? Isles drop first two at the Forum? I'm calling BS on the NHL and John Zeigler and the Canadian crew. Then, the finals that year are 2-3-2? Give me a BREAK. NHL wanted no part of Isles winning 5 straight.

Anyway, dad always says, if you are looking for the 5th Cup, it's in 78 or 79. By 84, the team was gassed and the Oilers were ready.

See y'all at Belmont!

Loved those Islander teams. we will NEVER see the likes of that Habs/Isles/Oilers run again...possibly not in any sport. Parity? who needs it.

Islander dynasty guy here also having grown up on LI. Still have blue and orange in my blood but being in MD for over 25 years have gravitated to the Caps. Makes for fun rivalries. Interesting fact there is one spelling error on the cup and that’s the 80-81 Islanders spelled Ilanders.

Hope I have figured the picture thing out!

EDIT: Seems I don't.

Here's how to post a picture with a computer running Windows:

1. Start a post (either your own or by quoting someone else’s post)
2. Scroll down to (and then click on) “Manage Attachments”
3. Click on “Choose File”
4. Find and select your picture (you’re searching in your own computer files at this point) and click “Open” or “Insert”
5. Now you’re back in the Net54 software. Click “Upload”
6. Click “Close this window”
7. Click “Submit Reply”

Please note - the software only allows files up to a certain size. If your image is too high-res, try resizing it to somewhere around 1.5 MB.

Thanks for the answer, i was trying this bit it still didn't work, maybe my images were still too big...if i shrink them enough to fit the tiny size they become almost like thumbnails. I will keep plugging away!
