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

[Jimmy_the_Tongue]

Pens can not beat this team...it's psychological now...or the Flyers are just better....

Well, Voracek had to score, I mean, it was only 2:30 until the shootout, and we all know how that would have ended.

Boy, Marc-Andre Fleury sure has sucked in the playoffs since winning the Stanley Cup.

Fleury was, has been, and always will be a competent, good goalie, but he is not great.

Congrats Flyers' fans. Tough break, Pens' fans. But it's a long, long series to go yet.

Flyers got off to a shaky start

Then they DOMINATED the game

[flyersfan4706]

Great game. And I know I am a sore loser a la first period.

Nah, it's gonna be a 6-7 gamer. Pens completely owned us in the first. We got some bounces and some luck, but we did outplay them in the 2nd and especially the third (when they dialed back the forecheck waaaaaaaay too early).

 

[elocomotive]

2-1

Lol. I should have known.

 

[Vadered]

jk, right?

No. We would have gotten stomped in the shootout.

 

[flyersfan4706]

Well I wanted a split of the first two. Maybe we go 2 for 2?

 

[SuperFlyer13]

Was very impressed with bryz's composure. Never got to rattled and got more focused as the game wore on, hope he starts game 2 that way, I can't have to many heart stopping moments any more, it's not good for the soul..

 

[SLY]

Lol. I should have known.

alright im out. see you bastards tomorrow.

 

[Vadered]

HEY.

THOSE ESPN BASTARDS STOLE OUR THREAD TITLE.

"Flying high again."

 

[SuperFlyer13]

jk, right?

He's joking cause we lost almost every shootout this year..

 

[BF4L]

GN Flyers/Pens folks and all. Getting late and I need my sleep for the Bruins start tomorrow night..

 

[JMlion71]

Man, now the pressure is on them. Like it. Love to go 2-0, too.

I have ice water running through my veins
