I thought this was supposed to be an explosion of Rangers fans coming in here and spouting off. All of a sudden the Flyers faithful have bombarded the board. I just think that most of this can be summed up in a few sentences. Flyers fans think the pens are the dirtiest team in the league. Pens fans think pretty much the same of the Flyers or have in the past. Flyers fans think the flyers will win in the first round pens fans think the opposite. Did I cover it all?

Who cares how dirty one team is vs another. Scoreboard is all that matters. The Flyers have handed it to the Pens all season. Now all that matters is this playoff series. whoever wins, dirty or not has done their job exactly as they are supposed to do it.

How is it not hypocrisy for Cooke to be a "buffoon" for injuring people while your fellow fan Ben37 publicly states that he wants a penguin to injure another flyer in tomorrow's game? Just checking.

I'm pretty sure I've seen Flyer fans posting about how they hope that Crosby and Malkin die.

I hope that Giroux gets a Staph infection.

You guys have 8 games to get your revenge. Suggest your team makes the most of it.
- Rawdog9755


Actually, I think it will take less than that to end the penguins season...so we may have only 5 or 6 games left to do it. But thanks...I'm sure the thought will be there in the back of their minds if an opportunity presents itself.

It will stop when somebody lays a knee on Crosby and Mario petitions Bettman. Maybe you guys could help move things along for the next 2 weeks.
- Rawdog9755

We're experiencing a shortage of knees, I don't think we can afford to sacrifice one. Can't we just whine about whining about us whining instead?

Cool, my moms friend cut Gretzkys hair in the 80's it doesn't mean I have inside information.

Mitchell signed with the Kings and has been fine ever since. Outside of other ailments, nothing concussion related though.

Except my buddy did, cuz Willy could not work out or do anything strenuous. Funny how living beside a guy gives you knowledge like that.

What did your mom's friend charge for the haircuts?

And when a fanbase whines about whiners whining about another team whining, what does that make them?

How is it any different than Flyer and Rangers fans wishing injury on Crosby, Malkin everybody? We are fans, this is how it works. We dont have to be politically correct or agree. And round and round we go.

It's one thing for fans to troll each other, it's going to happen, but Garth has a real gem out there today.

I've never read a serious Flyers fan saying that they hope a Flyer intentionally injures an opposing player in a game. To be honest, I hope the Penguins are at full strength and not missing any pieces come playoff time...that way, when we beat you despite all your cheap shots, you can't use injuries as an excuse and you'll have to whine & cry about other things. (Not that you should be using injuries as an excuse as it is...the Flyers have had just as many injuries, if not more, than the Penguins this season.)

But anyway, thanks for showing your true colors. Keep up the good work.

Mitchell signed on August 25th, so the Kings took a gamble. I like Mitchell he's solid. I just found it funny how the Canucks basically cut ties as soon as they could.

I really have no idea. She did keep a lock of it in a ziplock bag stapled to an autograph that she gave to her husband as a wedding gift.

Agreed 100%. But apparently, in the world that these Penguins "fans" live in...it's perfectly acceptable for them to do that. And oh yeah, then they call Philly fans "classless." Gotta love it. LOL

If you have a problem with a specific poster on here and a specific comment then call them out. I dont see many of us wishing harm on other players.

Go read the gameday comments again. This time without the orange and black glasses, you'll find one.

I hope Hartnell chokes on a hairball.

I think they were just trying to get their team in order, can't blame them there. I'd love to still have Willie on the team but the guy's health was in jeapordy. The Canucks did offer him a contract, so saying they cut ties "as soon as possible" is just revealing your AB hatred of the Canucks, which we saw in spades last year.
