Not really, making a cup final isn't an accomplishment


disagree,oh yes it is. conference champs is an accomplishment. It means a lot more than division champs. you have to win 3 rounds of hockey to be a cup finalist. not so for division champs.

Pens PK is just beautiful, since acquiring Winnik without a doubt best unit in the League.

A push to someone's face/head is almost always a roughing penalty

Well it's in the rulebook whether you agree with it or not Downie also has a history of those sorts of penalties so he's not getting away with it

Damn Philly in front, they finally gonna break their streak?

Maybe, asking this lineup to score more than 2 goals is asking a lot, minus a shootout.

Steve Downie setting records for most minutes in the penalty box. Can get the full Happy Gilmore effect if he takes off his skate and tries to stab someone

Still my favorite piece on hockey this year: the Flyer blog takedown of the Pens.

LINK

quote:

Pittsburgh Penguins fans can talk all they want about the evil Flyers, how they're the worst franchise in sports (!) and how they degrade the game, lowering their opponents down to a lowly step with 'em.

But only one team in Pennsylvania is currently carrying three goons / pests on their roster. Only one team in Pennsylvania spent Tuesday night sending their fighters after two guys who have never fought before. Only one team in Pennsylvania is leading the league in penalty minutes per game.

Meanwhile, the Flyers have scratched their pest for long stretches this season, opting instead for a more-skilled fourth line (something we hope they do more of). It's possible that after last night he never gets back into the lineup again. In training camp they sent their two enforcers down to the AHL, where they've remained all season. Their coach, himself a former enforcer, has said the days of those types of players over.

That's not to say the Flyers are perfect by any means -- they take a ton of penalties too, although I'd imagine most of them are because they're a bad team, not a violent one -- but it's pretty clear which team in Pennsylvania is the more violent one here.

It's about time Pittsburgh got off its high horse about the Flyers' violent history and started thinking about the team they're rooting for right now.

Little dick syndrome at it's best

Any time you read a Flyers trash piece you can only laugh.

I would hope that US hockey would actually take that money Kraft is giving for an upgrade and build a rink somewhere that needs one. Then they can ntroduce the sport in an area where they can develop a legitimate grass root program.

Other than USA T&F USA Hockey is the most dysfunctional group around.

Did they? I had to shut it off, only thing worse than a poorly officiated hockey game is a poorly officiated basketball game.
