Flyers lead 2-1 after two periods - let's have a strong third period!
Good game Flyer fans, Emery was 1st star for sure.

I've been hard on coburn this season (and others), but I thought he played a really solid game last night, the entire D has played well this last little stretch, hope they keep it up. Simmonds was a beast last night, him and schenn are really good together. I f'n hate pittsburgh (sorry doob), I'm especially glad they pulled that game out, emery kept them in it early, and was solid (if not spectacular) throughout the game.
cheers
Emery terrifies me. The announcer is going on and on about his rebound control and I'm watching Emery thinking, "Oh god, he barely hung on to that puck."
I'd give Tanner Glass Star 3.5 just for that series of shots he blocked. 3 shots blocked, all huge slappers, in about 15 seconds.
I want Dan Bylsma's pen. When he called the timeout, he was pointing out things with a large, fancy looking pen - thing looked like it might have weighed a pound. I bet that pen costs more than I make in a week.
The Philly strategy of infecting the other team with the lack-of-scoring disease we've been suffering from isn't what I would choose for a strategy, but it worked. That said, Crosby had one goal where he easily could have had four; he (and the Pens in general) missed some top notch chances. Good on the Flyers for taking advantage, but we need less this game and more the Ottawa game going forward.
Kadri is a freaking moron; I know he wasn't a part of this game but it's still true.

Pens played a real good game but just didn't get it tonight. I don't think we controlled the game - we definitely owned part of it, but part of it not so much.
Good game to you guys as well
Thanks, appreciate it. Just wish we didn't have too many games like this like we do.
