The 2nd round got a LOT better in the last couple days

[elocomotive]

It was kind of a snoozer of a 2nd round after some pretty exciting and surprising first round series. And then... the Canucks fought their way back, the Flyers made a series out of a romp, and the Habs just won't give up and could be on their way to one of the best cinderella runs in recent memory.

Let's hope the next couple days brings just as much drama.

Defenatly looked like there could have been 2 sweeps and a 5 gamer. The pens habs have been the only real series that has been competitive throughout

The Flyers/Bruins series has been very competitive. The 3-0 series lead for Boston was a little misleading; it could have been easily 3-0 Philadelphia. Now the bounces and breaks are starting to shift to the Flyers, and they are capitalizing.

Game six has major letdown potential, but if the Flyers can generate another solid effort, this one could end up going seven.

I read a few days ago when it was 3-0 they've never pushed a series to even six games after getting down 3-0, so they've already made franchise history. If they somehow get it to a game 7, it's going to be insane.

I picked the Flyers in the first round that is the only series i got right in the east so far this year. I was on the fence between the Pens and Sens. Second round i went Pens - Flyers and now thats not looking to good.

I also picked the Wings and Van in the west. Ouch i could go 0-4 in the second round. Other than the Wings - Sharks all the series have been good. Even the Philly Boston series was much closer than the 3-0 lead would have indicated.

i also picked the wings and canucks although i picked chicago in the beginning of the year.

Did you pick Chi - PHI? Are you Melrose coming here to get info for your 2 minutes on SC.

Apparently 162 series have gone 3-0 in league history, and only on 14 occasions has as team forced as much as a game six. The last time a team forced a game seven was 35 years ago, coincidentally the year of the Flyers most recent cup.

Yeah, and only twice has the team down 3-0 come back to win. So, while I'm not a Flyers' fan, I'll be rooting for them to make a historic comeback.

I just clicked the button next to your "online" button.
I think I added your well earned rep.
