That was pretty damned fun.

Beauty win, very well played and hung on at the end. They are really playing like a team now supporting each other which is nice to see. The last few mins were crazy!

Great win, very exciting

Yay?

Well done Flyers! I hope you knock out the Red Wings.

You're next

Very fun game to watch. Nice win!!

So when Jake comes back, who do u sit??? I'd sit VDV, took a bad penalty, ofers nothing offensively.

Missed the game but 2 massive points. Hakstol is working wonders with this roster.

Agree You cannot take Gagner out right now, He is playing well and is a good presence on that 2nd PP Unit. I think that 2nd line is playing well right now so hard to shuffle Raffl down as well. I think it may be Cousins though just for sheer numbers which is unfortunate.

Well done Flyers! I hope you knock out the Red Wings.

Yes. (frank) the red wings.

Would be awesome if the flyers and pens both made it and knocked detroit out, imagine that playoff series at some point

Helluva ride.

Radko Gudas' bouncing point shot, which deflected off the stick of Chicago defenseman Christian Ehrhoff and into the net at 9:53 of the third period. The Flyers also got goals by Brayden Schenn and Ryan White (power play deflection). Claude Giroux had a nifty assist on Schenn's tying goal in the second period. Philly also received two assists from Sean Couturier and one helper apiece from Andrew MacDonald, Wayne Simmonds and Michael Raffl.

As your editor, Bill, I say your lead sentence is a little off. I've got my red pen out...

But how about that 2nd pp unit? Getting it done.

quotes don't work on page 1. never will.

they are getting it done. and thank goodness for that. the top unit needs to simplify and get the puck to the net from the point with bodies in front. it's not rocket science. they're trying to be too perfect and end up mishandling it in the process.

1-1, ducks/poopgers 3rd period coming up.

Streit needs to come off the 1st pp, he looks like a lost child in a mall out there

Holy (frank)

We going to the cup!

Indeed. Let him anchor the 2nd unit so long as Voracek is absent. Put
Coots in his place on the 1st unit. And FFS Don't put him on the 5 on 3.
