Why aren't the Devils included on the Top 10 list? Since March 1, they have a 10-5-2 record for 22 points.

Hey everybody:

Hockey's an emotional game. There's 30 NHL teams and every single one of them has games where they play chippy, nasty and yes, dirty hockey.

This holier than thou BS is ridiculous. It's like retarded children fighting over a rubber duck. Grow the (frank) up.

Two more american teams. No thanks. Wake me up when its an all Canadian final

2 teams I can't stand beating the crap out of each other in round 1, LOVE IT!

You can thank the stupid NHL seedings for that travesty.

Does anyone remember when it was 6-2 and Rinaldo slewfooted Parise in Philly? It goes both ways.
- _Zippy_

Rinaldo's gotten fined and suspended... Let's see if anything happens to any Pens.

I'll be over here holding my breath.

Exactly what was suspension worthy at the end of the game? For either team? That little bit of shoving with Asham? What was Rinaldo doing on the ice? Neither team deserves anything. Looking forward to Saturday.....

You guys are ridiculous. I would like to point out that it is indeed ironic that Pens fans, after Torp's blog after the last meeting between these teams, were all up in arms about how the Flyers tried to throw them off their game with dirty, physical play, when Pens routinely deliver the same kind of stuff in these rival games. It happens, get over it.

Nothing happened worthy of suspension. It was message sending. No instigator penalties issued, nobody even got a game misconduct. poop happens.

Sanity.....Thanks!

All I gotta say about the Pens-Flyers game is that I can't wait for the playoffs to start. It makes winning for everyone else easier to, because whichever team makes it out of the first round will have most of their players either hurt or suspended.

I didn't say anything deserved a suspension.

Asham going after Schenn was a sissy move. I thought I saw Crosby give Schenn a pretty good whack, but Schenn got caught cause he was 2nd.

Engelland going after Simmonds after Simmonds took a puck to the face yesterday was a monster wussy move.

But I never said anything about suspensions.

Unless it's deemed Vitale's knee hit was intentional, then he should be suspended until Grossmann plays again. Actually, one of the Pens top d-men should be suspended - like for like - we are going into the playoffs after all.

But turn it around, if Rindaldo had done what Asham did, think he would get suspended? I mean, Asham just started swinging at Schenn before Schenn even knew what was going on. And let's not act like that Pens line was out there for any other reason that to goon it up.

Maybe the flyers shouldn't have objected to a clean hit on Brier? Do the fights happen there if Brier accepts a clean hit and gets back into the play.

You mean this guy who gave Bortuzzo a concussion.....no suspension by the way Don't remember the flyers fans crying about that hit.

I missed the Flyers/Pens game but it seems like the Rangers/Devils have one hell of a rivalry going and have some nasty games against eachother.

Overblown.....really. Funny to hear some of the flyers fans complain with no recognition of their teams history. Kids in philly come out of the womb with "Broad Steet Bullies' tattoos. But like a bully, they don't like to get hit. Fully ok when their team beats the other team bloody however.

Rags and Devils..... Naaa.... Those teams are angels....just ask their fans.

No the Pens are angels just ask your fans.

I care.

wow....good comeback. Nobody on our board thinks we have the cleanest team. But every team has players that get a little dirty.

- madmike71

I see. So when the Pens get to put their line out last, what were the Flyers supposed to do, kill the last minute plus with the 4th line because the Pens are going to goon it up and try to take players out because they are losing?

I mean, it does seem like that's the only way the Pens are going to beat the Flyers, but are you readily admitting your team is cheap and dirty?

You really thought that argument through, eh?

That has what to do with what? Are we going to go through the archives and pull out all the cheap plays and dirty hits?

Eklund: Does it get any better than Pittsburgh and Philadelphia Right Now?
- Eklund

Yes.

Philly / Pitt might not even be in the top 3.

I cry.

fixed that for you.

Sooo... Engellend needs to ask if Simmonds boo boo is healed? Maybe Simmonds shouldn't object to a clean hit.

fixed that for you.
- madmike71

Thanks. I'm impressed you got the 4 letters in the right order. Well done. Be sure to let me know when you are going to demonstrate your creative genius again...I don't want to miss it.

I see. The Penguins piss their skirts when Schenn taps Cindy, Asham jumps Schenn (a known tough-guy) because of said shotgun blast to the back, and you're trying to be sarcastic about a guy who took a puck off his face yesterday and gets teed off on by Engelland.

Remember this bravado when Cindy or Letang get theirs in the playoffs.

Flyers get the girl in blue!

the real question is.....are flyers fans the whiniest bunch of sucks in pro sports?

Don't you have a riot to attend or some cop cars to burn?
