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

[Jimmy_the_Tongue]

Methinks Sid and Geno might start seeing a lot of ice time together

 

[SLY]

Tripping? lol

 

[OregonDucks]

another PP....could spell major trouble for Pens.

 

[Jimmy_the_Tongue]

Flyers PP...here comes an automatic goal

 

[dare2be]

Time for a momentum changing PK.

 

[OregonDucks]

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO dang!!!!

 

[SLY]

Wow...

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

another PP

To be fair, that is a pretty good penalty to take, usually.....but the Flyers are better than 50% on the PP, ha ha. You figure 50/50 on a breakaway when you decide to haul a guy down (from a defenseman of 20 years)

 

[SLY]

Flyers with some insane chances.

 

[Jimmy_the_Tongue]

Pens getting pwned!

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

Pens need to settle down a bit.

 

[JMlion71]

2-0 at end of P 1. Could easily have been 3-0, but whatever. Have to keep bringing it.

 

[mall3013]

Here we go again with the cheap head shots.

 

[Darkstone42]

What cheap head shots?

 

[MISKO]

oh no not head shots .. maybe its a good thing I cant watch this today

 

[Dacks]

Flyers came out flying. Pens down 2-0. The story continues.

Cooke has to not take that penalty.

Malkin and Neal have to hit the net. Don't make it easy on Brzy.

 

[Dacks]

That trailing leg definitely tripped Briere. But Schenn goes flying at the lightest touch. Was still a penalty but I thought Flyers fans hated that stuff? Guess not...

 

[OregonDucks]

Still plenty of time left for Pens to get back into it..They did score 10 goals after all the other night. So it's possible to get out of this deficit.

Sure hope so!!..

Flyers 8 for 13 at home on the PP....ridicoulous

and 12 for 21 overall, which makes them 4 for 8 on the road.

Man, what a series this has been in the offensive zone for the Flyers. We'll not talk about the defensive zone. At least our boys look ready to play some D. Bryz has let some interesting shots rebound off him in interesting ways (hint: find/replace interesting with shitty and that last statement is still true), but so far nothing in.

JVR is an also ran so far in the game. I've seen him on the ice like twice and he either gave the puck up or never got it in the first place.

The Pens defense seems to be ready to play but only once Fleury makes the intial save. Giroux had all day on that first goal, and of the three pinball chances we've had we scored one. Fleury not looking super sharp, but his defense isn't helping him on the initial shot.
