They suck.

=)

Damn youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!!

I just want to know what you guys think. It is a Pens/Flyers division (Unless the Devils make a 2009 Flyer-esque comback :)) and not to mention we have a game in a week or so.

I think it's no coincidence that these two teams, the two in the division with the best defenses, are the ones at the top. They'll stay there.

Pens fans, what do you think of the Flyers?

Lots of talent, hampered by goaltending issues, love the rivalry, would be scary if they could stay disciplined for a whole series against the Pens.

I dont even think is the D that really does it, but I think we both have 2 of the league's best teams that are good all around. The Devils have helped, obviously :D

Honestly, playing great hockey. I've only seen a handful of Flyers games, but they look good. They have great depth. I hope the Pens meet them in the playoffs.

I'm sure you wanted something more in depth, but I don't want to spout off some analysis when I've only seen a few games.

Would be a great series. IMO you guys just have a Flyers killing team, regardless of discipline.

I think we have two of the best teams because we have two of the best defensive corps. Both teams have defenses that can both score and prevent the opposition from scoring. The Penguins have the best player in the league right now in Crosby and the Flyers have really good scoring depth, but it all starts with the defense.

This might make me sound dumb, but Clarkson has looked like the best Devil tonight.

...well let's leave that up for debate. :)

True, the D is the starting point. Both of us (Unfortunatley) are teams made to take the playoffs and are actually pretty similar. I don't watch a lot of you guys, but I have a very unorthodox way of ranking team's play and players. We look like we play each other's hockey, and that does trace back to the blueliners.

No, I am not looking for you guys to tickle my fancy but I was just curious with the upcoming game, similar records, tied for division, etc.

Wouldn't say dumb clarkson has been the best devil most games this year.he's also been one of the few players to show any heart or effort most nights .he's got one less goal than kovy at the moment.

Good game for the Pens. Fleury and the D is allowing them to win games when the PP dries up. Beginning of the season, we lost those.

Ten in a row is nothing to sniff at. Let's keep it going Wednesday!

Fleury's numbers have really improved lately. I think this game brings his GAA down to 2.25 and his Sv% up to .912. Not bad, Marc-Andre.

It's always the guys with the most heart that stand out during bad times.

What can you say about Crosby right now? No he's not Lemieux or Gretz, but's he's playing like the next best thing...right now.

No Crosby isn't Lemieux or Gretzky. No, he's not Jagr or Yzerman or Sakic.

Just saying, he's playing the best I think we've seen a player in quite a few years. For time the being.

Enough qualifiers?

You forgot the "in the calendar years including 2008 - 2010, Bettman's NHL, and player with the worst commercials" qualifiers.
