Last Sunday: 3pm start.

Flyers 8 Penguins 4.

Seriously, why is everyone freaking out. The Pens are a good team. They've won two games. Flyers have won three and are going home. I expect the Flyers best game and them to win. That said, Bryz can't be letting in goals like the Kennedy one if they want to win. That shot needed to be saved.

- Flyers1218

The team had a strong 3rd, and so did Bryz. That's good to build on. This was the first game of the series that seemed like a real hockey game. I still like the Flyers in those kinds of games going forward.

IMO, the league should definitely look at that play. 5 seconds left and the outcome is done and that basttttard takes a run at Giroux's head. Luckily Giroux's spider sense was tingling or he'd be concussed.

When they briefly showed Cooke skating backwards past the bench after the game had ended, you could see the entire bench was yelling at him.

What a POS.

I can't speak for anyone but pens fans feel welcome s long as the obnoxious gloating isn't there/ What fun is commiserating with just flyers fans?

Oh...well at least you have part of this right. But there is still 2 more games to be played, we should stay on topic.

I don't fault Bryz on that goal. You had five Flyers down low doing nothing and a guy wide open ripping a slapper from the dot. Thats a tough save for any goalie in the league. Thats a bad breakdown defensively.

i was pissed after game 4 but i am proud how they played tonight.the puck was not bouncing for them tonight.hopefully on sunday they get some bounces pitts two goals tonight had eyes that was the difference.if healthy the flyers are a better team than pitt and way deeper.would like to see both teams 100% healthy and see what happens.
- richiewinthecup




most of this^.....now if they played like they did game 4, Id be real worried, but Pittsburgh was playing trap and was still getting exploited. Fleury made some saves but there were also lots of chances that were just missed by bounces or shot right at him.

Okay. But what does that have to do with the Hartnell hit?

I just asked a simply question...lol

- sbrubakerjr[/quote They were both down on their knees. The penalty on Briere was because he got mugged after the hit, not because of the hit.
