Thanks pal

If I see him, I'll run the other direction

If the Flyers tie with the Rangers with 107 points who wins the tiebreaker?

For all intents and purposes, the Flyers and Penguins are in the same situation right now heading into these final three games.

Philly needs to be up two points on the Pens after the Buffalo game to render next Saturday's outcome in Pittsburgh meaningless. Due to the tiebreaker, which the Flyers have already clinched, the Penguins need to be up three points on Philly to do the same prior to the final game, but already have one extra point from shootouts in their favor.

If the Flyers beat both the Rangers and Sabres -- by any means necessary -- and the Pens no better than 1-1-0 or 0-1-1 this week, it won't matter what happens in the final game in Pittsburgh. If the Flyers win both games and the Penguins go at least 1-0-1, it comes down to the final game.

If the Flyers lose either to the Rangers or Sabres in regulation, they've still got a shot in the final game so long as Pittsburgh doesn't go at least 1-0-1 to take a three-point lead.

If Philly loses in OT/SO in one game and wins the other, they will still have a shot in the final game regardless of what the Pens do this week because Philly would enter the final game two points out.

Just win, Baby

If the Flyers tie with the Rangers with 107 points who wins the tiebreaker?

See above. If the Flyers go 2-0-0 in the next two games and the Pens go no better than either 1-1-0 or 0-1-1, the outcome on Saturday in Pittsburgh becomes meaningless in terms of its bearing on home ice in the playoff matchup.

Likewise, the Penguins also have a chance of wrapping up home ice prior to Saturday if they win both their games this week and the Flyers go no better than 1-1-0.

I feel like tonight is the first game of the playoffs lol

I think a lot depends on this week before moving on to that.

If that Saturday game is rendered "useless" than Crosby, Malkin, Letang, and co will likely sit out..

It wouldnt be the first time that happened, and that would be great for us, as it would send the message to everyone that the pens are Intimated by us.

Play hard, and roll 4 lines, we win the game puts the team in the perfect mindset going into the playoffs.

Didd Grossmann have an MRI yesterday?
If so, the 7-10 day time frame is actually decently good news, at least he did not tear his ACL on the knee to knee which would have been season ending.

I want them to win these last three but hope the coach doesn't burn up Timo, Coburn, and Carle by extending their minutes too much in the effort.

Oh well. The injuries this time of year are about the only certain thing with the Flyers.

That, and making the playoffs.

Just win, Baby

Makes me really really want to go to Saturdays game even tho the prices will be insane for a game that could be meaningless.

League didn't make it easy on the Flyers or Pens with two head to head matchups and the Rangers for Philly. Pittsburgh has Rangers and Boston.

I want the win tonight BAD. Flyers need some kind of mental edge in case Rangers make it out of the first round. Just to say.... Yea we can beat them, and we did beat them at half power.

If the league ever goes to the playoff format they were submitting to the NHLPA earlier this year our two teams will be at a disadvantage IMO. How many times will the Penguins and Flyers beat the crap out of eachother leaving the team left in a compromised position moving forward.

I feel like this whole season has been 1 big injury.... The only players not to be injured were Bob, Hartnell, Simmonds, & Carle. Let me correct that... The only players that havent missed a game.... Ugh...

I think they meant 7-10 days until we get the next time frame

Hope for a good game Marauder!

Cool avatar, "Ain't it a shame to beat the Rangers on a Tuesday, ain't it a shame...." Great first disc in that boxed set.

Great band, fan allegiances can't come between that fact.

Ah yes, the mid 1980's. The Flyers would make the SCF, and be dressing guys who had fewer NHL games than Tim Kerr had goals in the season because they'd have to run the Gauntlet.

Not to mention the Devils and Rangers aren't bad teams either, and Islanders look to turning the corner... Would not be what's best for Hockey.

But I did see that Quebec is building a new arena, so its likely that they will be getting Phoenix, so Winnipeg may just have to stay in the east until then... 1 more year.

I did enjoy those 1980's series. You got a real good hate on for opposing teams.

Haven't been this excited for the playoffs in a long time. This year has a much different feel to it than years past, IMO.
