Okay, so now LA is out (which I cannot believe we're still alive and they aren't). I won't believe Vinny is done until it's official and I'm hoping this will be the case like anyone else.

The Caps have to be waking up this morning like the guys from the Hangover. WTF happened last night and it couldn't possibly be as bad as it seems.

One thing that i think helps the flyers with Neuvirth in goal this series is that he freezes the puck as much as he can. Mason trying to play the puck is nice when the skill levels are close on the teams but the freezing of the puck allows the flyers to reset and stops the Caps momentum.

I'm glad the Flyers are alive but if the Caps lose this series this will go down as one of the biggest david vs goliath stories in the playoffs ever.

Chimera should be suspended.
That hit gets 5 and a game in the regular season.

Manning has been a pleasant surprise. He's handled the playoff pressure very well.
Gudas and AMac also. Schultz is a warrior.

Very proud of what this group of #5 6 7 type of D men are pulling off for the Flyers.

There's an article on NHL.com questioning his retirement. I think he retires, better to be on top then have another Philly situation. Take the advice of St Louis, it's over.

I suspect that it won't even be looked at by the league. Of course.

I want to see more from neuvy. He needs to score on the pp and get some shots on goal. Seriously though, we need some sort of effort from the o next game. Crazy we only got 11 shots with all the pps we had. If by some miracle they could get the pp going, they could win the series with neuvy a play

It's incredible they won being outshot 44-11. Nuevirth is in the zone. The flyers have every opportunity to send this to game 7 if they can find a way to even be mediocre on the pp

You and crims

The Flyers are in the Caps' kitchen, now, from Trotz on down. It's a wonderful thing to behold.

Who's crims?

It's amazing to watch. The flyers had no business winning last night getting outshot 44-11. Tomorrow is going to be awesome!

More blatant and intentional then the PEB play.
But you are right, the league is very inconsistent.

On a related note what was up with Justin Williams last night? It seemed like every time he got on the ice he was committing a penalty. If the Flyers had any sort of power play Williams penalties alone would've sunk the Caps.

I just watched the postgame interviews and it hit me that all but G were lit up by cameralights. I do wonder if G might be a bit lightsensitive and having some concussion symptoms.

On the other hand, that should've been pretty obvious to the beats so maybe not.

This is what can happen by just changing up the goalie. Sucks Mason gets the short end of the stick but he got them into the playoffs and now nuevirth is taking his turn carrying the team. This is pretty much best case scenario when making a goalie change after game 3 haha

Man that 5th goal by Pavelski was WEAK. Quick should have had that one

Score first next game, never know what can happen

Sometimes, folks, you just gotta believe

I don't know how the haters do it -- this is fun. They have taken two games off the best team in the league this year, gotten some young players some valuable experience, are playing Game 6 at home

If you're angry now...well. There's not going to be a whole lot that's gonna make you happy in professional sports

- AllInForFlyers


Obviously I want them to win and win a cup but honestly I didn't care if they went down 4 straight as long as they played hard. this to me was all cream.....to take this to 6 games how and giving me another game to watch is awesome. I think lessons learned for the likes of Ghost, Manning, Cousins, and Laughton (despite missing a lot of the series) is important.

for all the people who say G is getting old for the prospect pool coming along, remember OV is 30, Malkin will be 30 come next season, Thornton 36, Pavelski 31, etc etc. I think its silly to feel as tho Giroux is too old for the next core of prospects. the key is to keep building around G, Simmonds, Jake, Schenn and Coots.
