Giroux is capable of putting this team on his back vs. anyone.

Don't you think it would be a good time for him to start?

On the penalty, the one Simmonds scored on, I thought there should have been a second one against the Bolts. Streit was mugged along the boards on the delayed call.
Speaking of Streit, he is playing really well in the offensive zone.

Why? I believe this team can beat anyone. I truly do believe it.

The sad thing is, the Flyers did outplay the Lightning for some large stretches of the game. Lindback was very good and very lucky and the Flyers failed to bury several chances. They had some breakdowns that killed them and Emery was very, very uneven.

I think they can on any given night but right now not in a 7 game series. Still too many mistakes defensively and still undiscipline at times.

I don't care.

Everything goes out the window once the playoffs start. It's no secret.

A few years ago, against the Bruins, the Flyers were 1-2-1. Including the playoffs, the Flyers were 1-5-1 against the Bruins.

But then they won 4 in a row.

Anything happens.

After Richards KO'ed Krejci.....I would say unleash Rinaldo on him this time.

Devils lost their 16th consecutive shootout tonight.

If they lose their next 32 shootouts, Flyers will have a better shootout win %

Actually I like the description of Emery's play....it wasn't that he stunk.....he just wavered late.

He was solid early but yeah let in some bad ones, will dispel any crazy thought of him getting the nod in playoffs over Mason.

Don't forget Giroux's KO of the most overrated player in the NHL Bergeron in 2011.

Lets be real here fellas yes that 2010 Flyers team backed in but that squad compared to this one is much better. Flyers pretty much have one scoring line and two PP weapons in Simmonds and G..... Anything can happen but if they get Boston in round one no way they beat them. Flyers maybe win 1 or 2 in that series.

I think it is pretty cool when Anders Lindback is the shorter of your two goalies.

I don't have an issue with the decision to start him. He's played solidly against some good teams down the stretch. I don't think he cost them the game, but he sure didn't help much.

He made some big stops, but 2 of the 4 goals seemed real stoppable.

I think offensively they're about the same.

Defensively they are worse.

Goaltending so much better.

They are in, let's just see what happens and enjoy the ride.

That's hockey. Whether they play the Rangers, Bruins, or Penguins it's going to be a battle. Just get it done. No sense in acting like the sky is falling (this isn't directed at you Jsaq). I really feel like the Flyers could be that team this year.

They're a flawed team, but so are most of the other Eastern teams. It's time to enjoy the ride. They battled back from a horrendous start and made the dance. Now they need to Jitterbug until they run out of money for the Juke Box
