Jagr has been the complete opposite off the ice as I thought he'd be

between Fleury's first goal and Bryz's last goal, yikes. Still can't really tell what happend on the initial shot - get stuck in his pad and pop out?

Good question, I have no clue. Bryzgalov has made some highlight reel saves, but he hasn't been great thus far. If the Flyers advance, the defense and goaltending have to be tighter. I'm hoping the style female dogburgh plays is contributing to why the Flyers are having defensive lapses and some shaky goaltending at times.

Tortorella's pre-game interview with Rosen, just comical. Not a more condescending, douchey, Richard in all of sports. What an bumhole this guy is.

Quick question.

As a Flyers fan, are you concerned with the amount of goals let in by Bryz in the past three games? Even though the Flyers won, I doubt many other teams would look like Swiss Cheese when it comes to goaltending and defense, and Bryz hasn't been overwhelmingly good either, despite a good save on Letang.

I think he played well in games one and two, yesterday he allowed a few soft ones. He will need to be better.

yes, but all we can do is hope that he is getting them out of his system now rather than then.

I think the Bryz is fine. The team had some defensive let downs in the these games which led to them getting behind and having to play a little loosey goosey on defense to score some goals. And lets not forget the Pens are the highest scoring team in the league... So no, Im not concerned.

Soft goals are rearing their head again, they are a non issue in games the Flyers are scoring 8 goals, but they have to stop. Hopefully starting in game 4.

Man the Media is just glossing over Crosby. No-one seems to be having an issue with him basically starting all the scrums. I would have thought Roenick or Jonesy would have said... well that was just classless, or when I played I would have.... Nupe. I dont care if they dont have a problem with what he said, after all I hope Giroux hates them... But his actions on the ice just got glossed over.

Same old media. Same old NHL. How about we promote the game, not an individual player.... We dont need a "next one". We need more series like game 1 and 2.

Well, 2500 on each and up to 4 games on each. We'll just have to wait and see.

Just a few. It happens. The Flyers will tighten up defensively against a different team. Dont forget we didnt have Timonen yesterday, and Carle was.....mehhh.

What media are you reading watching. Everything I've seen has been all over him for crappy leadership, leaving others to fight his battles, and being a whiny 7th grader when it was over except for EJ and Deb.

He won't get suspended 4 games on each, I'm thinking two games total.

1. Repeat offender
2. Left feet and delivered headshot on unsuspecting player away from the puck
3. Deliberate elbow to head away from the puck.

I'm stunned that people didn't think he would be suspended.

No. It's been 3 games of crazypants pond hockey. I expect things to tighten up against a different opponent.

We knew the Adams suspension. Asham should be getting no less then 5. With Neal as a "repeat offender" should get something.

It'd be great if the Penguins now have to pay back the Islanders their fine of a year ago.

Try a five minute google search. There's been a LOT of media critical about Crosby and the Pens in the aftermath of the game yesterday

I'm not saying he will. But that's the max on each, because he's not an in-person hearing. However, I think they plan suspension(s) or they wouldn't have gone two hearings.

Shea Weber grabbed Henrik Zetterberg and slammed his (frank)ing head into the (frank)ing glass. He was fined $2500.
