The Isles have talented forwards, but Boston has been and will be able to toss them around physically. Peca is small and will have a nice conversation with Dennis Bonvie or Stocky if he tries to mess with the Bruins forwards. Also, if I recall correctly one of the best hits I've seen all season was Hal Gill absolutely body slamming Mariusz Czerkawski. Aucoin is good, but Hamrlik is sort of a Sandis Ozolinsh type player, a good puck mover but I wouldn't have much confidence in his pure defensive capabilities. Isbister is notoriously inconsistent. Alexei Yashin used to be all about Alexei Yashin and not about the team, though he seems to have remedied that on the Island, we'll see if he is a team player in the playoffs. I think the biggest question mark for the Islanders is between the pipes. Chris Osgood has won a cup before with Detroit but they had much more firepower up front and much better defense in back than the Isles have this year. If Osgood gets hot, it could be a good series, but if Dafoe gets into the zone, I think the Bruins will roll. If you think the Isles are scary, just keep this in mind: The Bruins' third line center has over 30 goals.
