That game they won felt like something the Pens likely won't be able to repeat.

Also, did anyone else see that hit Sid took from Carl Hagelin? That didn't look so great.

The Penguins also haven't gotten anything from Malkin and Crosby, despite getting 2 goals, hasn't really played that well. If those 2 get rolling, they'll make it very interesting.

That is how much they've contributed. They have contributed 57 units of contribution so far.

All dependent if they can move some defensemen out via trade.
- J35Bacher


Why should that matter? Shouldn't the best 6 dmen play?

I couldn't tell if Crosby was acting as he sometimes likes to do, of if he just got caught in the right spot, cause the hit itself didn't appear to be much and it's not like Hagelin is a big guy whose shoulders are near Crosby's head.

Fair point.

The way he was on the ice, however, reminded me of other guys who took head shots.

I didn't think Hagelin did it on purpose. It looked incidental.

The last time the Flyers won the Cup, I was just a kid. I'd certainly like to see one again, and I think that I will. When I was younger, I lived a died with the Flyers. When they got knocked out of the playoffs, I was crushed, and was depressed for weeks after. I guess as I've gotten older, it's not like that anymore. I personally love this franchise, and love being a Flyers fan, and wouldn't want that any other way. I've enjoyed the hell out of the ride, and love how the Flyers have operated as a franchise. They haven't always been perfect, but they've always tried to win. Lot's of bad luck along the way, and running into some better team, has kept them from skating the Cup more. I personally think the Flyers will be back pretty quickly to where they always are, among the tops of the NHL. I'm looking forward to the journey in the future.

Apparently Yandle might have landed a questionable hit, but I haven't seen that one...

Not in the salary cap world.

I agree the best six should play but they have 8 defenseman on NHL deals.

Same

I think in 3-5 years they'll lift it again. I think Hextall is going to get it done.

I don't expect the Flyers to have 8 defenseman on one way deals when camp rolls around.
