Inexcusable. What a way to lose.

Well the officiating in the flyer game was absolutely atrocious. I'm gonna just stop typing before I go on long drawn out rant.

Wings look strong. Think the Ducks take the Pred series, but who knows, it's been tight so far.

Thank frickin goodness. Ugh

Sorry man... really hoping you lose so the Caps avoid Lightning/Penguins in the next round. Sabres are really not that good of a team and I would love to see them.

 

[NDFANnSouthWest]

What the neck is up with the Flyers- they are much better than that. Guess that is why they play the game.

I readlly thought the Flyers would of been done with the Sabes by now.

Well 2 of the games Ryan Miller stole. Game 5 and 6 the flyers have really dug themselves a hole. Luckily they pulled it out today

Caps are gonna beat whoever they play next round.

KPENN- true, a average team can beat a good team with a hot goaltender. Man I would rather suit up a inexperienced D man that is heathly then a unhealthy Pronger. Thoughts?

They dressed 7 defenseman. Pronger only played the powerplay. They just dressed him for the leadership/presence more then anything.

I liked the move. He's that much of a difference maker

It's the same ole song and dance with Philly...crappy goaltending. Seriously, they've been more or less an upper-echelon NHL team for 15 years and cannot get steady goaltending.

It was funny watching the game today, the Flyers absolutely dominated and honestly could have won 7-1 or something like that. I got home from Easter with the family and tuned into Sportscenter where Barry Melrose said today was the worst goaltending he's seen in the playoffs. I shook my head in agreement.

And yes I'm still bitter about the 96-97 Finals. I was watching a retrospective on that Philly-Detroit series a while ago and they were saying how the Flyers were favored and all that. Looking back no one was really aware how loaded the Detroit team was.

Anyway, the goaltending in that series for the Flyers was as bad as you'll ever see. Not to take away from the Wings because they made some plays, but there were so many god awful goals let in by Hextall and Snow. Ugh.

Sabres fan here... absolutely crushed. Congrats to Philly, I guess, there's no way Buffalo will recover for Game 7 on the road. If the Flyers score first, especially early on, it could be a real rout.

 

[KPENN]

Lol Canucks. The Flyers have started a trend it seems

 

[NDFANnSouthWest]

Canucks..untimate choke!

 

[KPENN]

Thank you Flyers for making tonight easy on my heart

 

[KPENN]

Oh boy Canucks are so close to an epic choke job

 

[KPENN]

And a huuuuuuge sigh of relief in Vancouver

 

[NDFANnSouthWest]

KPenn- wow...looks like you called Philly and said WTF! Close this thing! Congrats Man...

Canucks are killing my sleep...to their credit they did come to play. And Toews is a STUD...no questions asked. Clutch tieing goal.

Who do the Red Wings get next round?

 

[IrishSteelhead]

Heartbreaking loss last night, but I sincerely did not expect the Hawks to make the series that exciting, so it was a fun/encouraging ride. This new team started to click in the last half of the series, so I'm definitely excited for next year. We all knew this season would be rough for Chicago, but there is no shame in going down the way the Hawks did, and I'm very proud of them, especially Crawford, he literally grew up before our eyes the last 7 games.

 

[IrishSteelhead]

Wings vs Sharks

Nucks vs Preds

*Wings would have had Hawks if they could've pulled it out

Sorry about the L. Hate to sound so "glass half full" however, Crawford is amazing...you have a heck of Goalie. To be honest the 'Hawks are the only team that made me worried.

 

[KPENN]

Nashville in 6, Wings in 5

 

[ACamp1900]

GoIrish.. Rumor has Gagne and Hartnell from Philly to LA for Williams and Quick

[KPENN]

Bout 9 months behind

 

[KPENN]

Oh boy Flyers vs Bruins

 

[Ironman8]

Oh boy Flyers vs Bruins

How do the Habs not win in OT after scoring a dramatic goal with a minute left to tie it in the 3rd in Game 7 IN BOSTON, knowing their history. Hate Boston.
