(5) Philadelphia Flyers vs (4) Pittsburgh Penguins Round 1: There will be blood

[awaz]

3 high stickings
1 holding
2 holding the stick
4 interferences

for the most part i thought all of those were weak calls

 

[awaz]

Hit the nail on the head


It's the only hope Pittsburgh has in this series. Fleury needs his mojo, or it will be over, possibly as soon as tomorrow.

As for Fleury being a good goalie, that's exactly what i think he is. Good. Not to be confused with great, spectacular or anything else. When he's on, Fleury is tough to beat.

that being said.. i still expect 6 goals will be neeed to win tomorrow

Shaw got suspended for 3 because he hit a goalie, so that's definitely not a good comparison. That said, it looks like a violation of rule 48 to me, but a pretty tame one at that. Maybe a one game suspension in the regular season, fine at most in the playoffs.

As always, hope Grossman is okay. He's been great fire the Flyers.

That's a slippery slope to try and skate on, though. Just because it caused a concussion doesn't mean it was malicious.

Ask Steckel what his intentions were on Sid in the winter classic. Or Hedman on Sid in the next game....

This suspension yarn that is being splayed out after every playoff/regular season game is getting out of hand. It's almost like people are more excited to debate the fallout, than they are to discuss the actual hockey game.

Agree with you

We could be here till the start of next season arguing over calls and non-calls.
I think both sides can agree that the officiating has been very suspect in this series as well as others.I don't think there will be much improvement on it,but the refs tossing guys real quick now before shit starts up is a good start IMO.

This blowout was exactly what the Flyers needed to get them focused on playing some god damn defence.I have no idea who Lavi starts on Friday-I'd go Bobs as he has fared well in Pitt.

lol, this series is retarded. Goalies are non-existent. Still fun to watch.

I think Pittsburgh should start the game on friday with Marc on the bench, and add the extra attacker. Just leave the goal open, that way Philly can get the first one, and the trend can continue

you're far too sneaky for my tastes..

 

[mattola]

watch game 5 be a 3-2 score lol. and no not in the first period

heh, some people said that about game 4

Might as well put the nets down with no goalies,like in some beer leagues,for what it's worth.

 

[mattola]

didn't they mean that in the first 10 mins

 

[SLY]

Gonna be 0-0 into OT. In 4OT, Bryz will fire a shot high through the neutral zone, and it will go into the "humongous universe" that is Flolry's 5-hole.

Yep.

 

[evolver115]

It is unbelievable, though. First goal scored automatically means.... you lose

 

[SLY]

Thats such a weird wink.

 

[awaz]

i dont even think it took 10
