Kubina and Lilja have been decent, the much dreaded 3rd pair is OK.
- Marc D


Just pointing out Kubina since he was out and has been questionable. I noticed a nice hit and a blocked shot and most importantly....no serious breakdowns.

as fun as this is, if they survive the series, these weak starts will not fly against ny or boston.

I heard the first on the radio on the way home from work.

I watched the second while making and eating dinner.

This is NUTS.

He's been good with a nice assist. But the two players I mentioned are carrying the team.

And the complete absence of team D by the Pens. 2 shg and 1 goal in the last 5 secs to the 4rth line. I will take it though.

I can't believe this game is tied. Couturier you da man.

Have to beat the pens this period and that's a serious mindfrank on pittsburgh.

- bird_dog


to tie the game with 2 seconds left has to be (frank)ing with their minds. the flyers could put them away for good if they win this next period.

Giroux and Bryzgalov have carried the team tonight. Certainly other players have chipped in. But they're the standouts to this point in my opinion.

bryz made some sick glove saves, kept them in it again

G what can you say, he has been fabulous

Still a ton of work to do in this series Sir. But point well taken. The Penguins aren't very good defensively. The Flyers are exposing their defense.

It doesn't surprise me that a player like Simmonds mocks play like that. He gets it, and the way he plays proves it!! #True Flyer

it is rather porous. if the flyers can avoid turnovers, penalties, and clog the middle of the ice, they should win the game. not much to ask.

The pens have to be doubting themselves right now. Get another quick one to start the third.

True. I thought Kmmo had a break down on that last Kunitz goal. Was in no man's land. Announcer blamed Coburn but Kimmo had nobody and didn't take away the center lane either.

It would be nice to score one here and see how they handle the pressure trailing in this game.

You will really care when the pens are out after the first round?
