The Pens are a huge test, especially because of the 1-0 series lead. The Pens know what mistakes they've made and I'm sure they'll be corrected. With this said though, should the Flyers beat the Pens in a best of 7 (And no I'm not looking ahead of the Pens), I have a feeling that the Flyers could very well face Boston for the 3rd straight second round match up. Not looking ahead, just a guess.

Bylsma already said that he's putting Crosby and Malkin on separate PP units. I don't think the Flyers PK will be as perfect next time.

I'm surprised it took Bylsma so long to break it up. When Sid was gone, the PP was really clicking, then Crosby came back and they are trying to make perfect plays.

Keep it simple, stupids!

They're just 2 different players. It's a team sport. They're already on 2 different lines. I could careless if they play separately or apart.

The Flyers PP has had great success versus the Pens this year. They should be looking at a way to stop that first. The Flyers only had one PP last game and cashed in. I hope they can get a few more opportunities in game two.

They are better off breaking them up IMO. Their 2nd PP unit was doing next to poop. Good move by them.

I'm expecting nothing short of a push back from the Pens. I think it would be nearly impossible for the Pens' PP to not break through. In the area of special teams, they need to adjust...we don't...for now.

Absolutely.

If the Flyers can play a full 60mins they will be tough to beat. I just dont like trailing every game in the first period. It would be nice to play with the lead for once.

I expect the Pens to come out flying again tomorrow, in the first period.

I would like to see the Flyers weather that storm alittle better this time around.

Really don't think anyone on here cares. I think you are on the wrong board or maybe it's me.

But I agree with the stupids part.

He was a rock last night. This is why they signed him, to be a difference, and he clearly was last night.

I might be but the Flyers have what it takes to fall apart as well. Luckily we're not placing all our faith into a possible Chris Pronger return this year.

I just mean the Pens PP has been junk for a month. Most of us have wanted 2 equal units since Crosby came back.

I was joking since it was a Pen's fan.
