Yeah he is. I bet he's wishing he could play the Bruins every weekMichkov is making a strong case for the Calder.
What's up, sorry I'm late to the party, looking like a good battle so far.I wonder if any of our Flyers crew here made the trip to Boston?
You DO know Bill Barber of 1975 Flyers fame was the original NHL diver, right? I could have sworn they implemented a rule beca8use of it. As far as the Bruins style of play, the Flyers are for the most part the Bruins/south. Big Bad Bruins/Broad Street Bullies. Well except the Bruins have played in, and won 1, Stanley Cup since the Bicentennial.The Boston bruins play junk hockey. Not good for the game. Loser mentality, but it lead to the win.
"Let me start: One thing I teach my team to do is not dive," he said in opening his postgame news conference. "Maybe I should start teaching them that. The way this has gone here ... maybe I should teach them to dive."
The Flyers were called for two tripping penalties -- neither of them led to goals -- in the third period. They also were whistled for a tripping penalty that led to a goal in the second.
Boston scored twice in the third period of its fourth consecutive win. Philadelphia blew a third-period lead for the second straight game.
"I'm not going to go too far into it," Tortorella said. "That's one of the things we talk about as a team: 'We've got to play an honest game. There's no cheating, there's no embarrassing referees. You don't embarrass the referees."'
