re: NHL Playoffs.

Prediction right now.....The hawks will show what a bum leighton was and fricking own the goons in 4 straight. they will not be afraid to do what we failed to do. they will show how to beat that bum consistently.

Told ya you'd be here cheering for someone else's team. We'll see, but im calling no sweep!

Congrats to Chicago for winning the Stanley Cup.

Nice of them to play Philly in an exhibition tour, too.

The Flyers have won 8 of 9 and shouldn't be discounted so easily. Having said that, Chicago is playing absolutely excellent hockey and has been facing consistently tougher opposition for the past two series. They just breezed through SJ and aside from Game 1, pretty much dominated the Canucks. Now it's not like Philly could choose their opponents, but it's hard to argue that they've seen a team anything like Chicago in the postseason. I think the Flyers have the chemistry and drive to win a game or two and to be competitive in most of the games, but Chicago is going to win the Cup.

Alot of flyers fans were hoping this team wouldn't make the playoffs and now look where they are

you clearly don't know the city of philadelphia and what the flyers mean to them win or lose...watch the broad street bullies documentary and you will understand......this couldn't be further from the truth and if you actual know people like this (which is unlikely), they are probably phillies fans because thats what they do

Great game last night, would have loved to win but not everyone can I guess. Congrats Philly

from another thread,this is rich! Do they handout crack pipes at the wachovia center pre-game???

quote from a flyer:
flyers in 6..destroyed halak, on to niemi



destroyed??? more like we destroyed ourselves offensively and on defense.halak had one bad game in game one. after that game you did not score more than 3 (one empty netter at least)and most of those goals were on our o-men and d-men by giving away turnovers and putting halak in a jam. I guess you only watched game one then eh then to say halak was destroyed? you would make good pals with the moron in the other thread cptbengal...you are on the same level hockey sense wise per your posts....

Keep dreaming flyer trash. Hawks will own you! They will expose the AHL bum leighton!

yeah scoring no more than 3 MAX (including an empty netter) after the bad first game is really destroying him. Do these guys even really watch the games? or realize that because a few goals were scored the defensive play of the forwards and defensmen play a huge part in opportunities also ( see my post where i gave philly's D credit for letting a bum not have to stand on his head or be tested), especially in regard to turnovers? Good grief, flyers. get some perspective,please.

That big POS is useless

not so fast, he blocked a ton of shots the first two series, yes he is slow, but he is better than Hammer and MAB who are terrible. we need some big changes this offseason. we are solid with markov, gorges, subban will be good, and O'Byrne is big and young and will get better. I doubt we will be able to replace gill as we have glaring problems with others first and foremost.

We have 3 little warriors in cammy, gomez and gionta, but we have a big pussy in pouliot who REFUSES to use his size to crash the net. he is still young(not giving upon him just yet) so put him on the 4th line for now. we need to dump pleks(or get what we can for him) also, he is soft and does not show up playoff time. we need a big center with good hands to take his place to complement cammy. we also need a big winger to go on the first line to complement gomez and gionta. a big guy with good hands on each of the first 2 lines will open up things even more for gionta and cammy. Andrei Kostitsyn and little brother should be history, AK did not show up the last 2 series either just like plekanecs. need to upgrade there. Probably have to trade carey price now because we really need size and grit on the first two lines and we need at least one more top 4 defenseman. Pierre Gauthier has his hands full, but if he cannot see who needs to be purged then GOD help him.

like they say if we do not make changes to get better then we will only get worse because others will be getting better. we have a great core to build around. cammy and gio can score(and show up come playoff time, imagine a big guy who can score on each of their respective lines to complememt them? our 3rd line is good. very tough and gritty with tons of heart pyatt, moore and lapiere. put the leftovers on the 4th line.

i just get so dam frustrated when you see people blow past Gill..

i know what you mean. he is best in front of the goalie staying in the shooting lanes blocking shots, he can stay with some defenders at times,close to the net but when he is caught backing in from the blue line he gets burned. I really hope we shitcan hammer. I guarantee MAB is gone. hammer is too old and slow as well. but he has a big fat contract. maybe we can get a bag of pucks or some sticks for him!
