The Jets had their 1st center right there.

Scheifele is no slouch but they'd be better off with Couturier.

And, Burmistrov will be a beast.

I think it has to do with the way the series was played, but mostly because I felt the Penguins were the best team I've seen in that long.

Not shocked that Philly did it, because they certainly bring out the worst in the Penguins.

Philly had more depth up front. But Pits has done a nice job turning their team from a 3 centers team to a three line team. If their goaltending had been more solid they would have won it.

They Flyrs played the Pens solid all season and had a winning regular season record against the Pens.

The Flyers only lost 1 game in Pitt over the last 2 seasons and that 1 loss was the last game of this season, the Flyers didn't show up for that game.

I don't think the Pens losing this series was a huge shock. Two very even teams although I think the PEns have a little edge at the high end level talent but the Flyers dpeth is second to no other team in the league this year.

All that without Pronger and Mesaros.

Depth was certainly a factor in that serie.

Maybe if the Pens had Després up earlier it would have helped.

Don't forget EE, anything happens in the playoffs. Upsets are commonplace.

Dear god no...

Their D sucked too.

Kelsey Grammar?

They probably need a physical D back there.

No Grossmann the final 2 games either.

Hopefully Mezaros comes back sometime in round 2.

JVR just came back in game 5.

It is a good time to be getting healthy.

Where's Howard and Sacha today?

Pits has always been afraid to play Philly. Was it in '08 they tanked their last game, so not to play Philly in the first round?
