Yup, good 'ol 5-some posts cmm coming in and acting like he's (in the words of iEl Gustahdore!) "all that and a bag of potato chips". Complaining that the "refs hosed us in game 4", "Flyers keep cheap shotting our players", blah blah blah. When in reality, the Flyers went up 3-0 int he first period, both teams dueled each other in the 2nd and the Penguins showed up strong in the 3rd... but just a little too late to rally back and tie it up/win it. Today's game is going to be a test of 2 things: 1) Will Timonen and Coburn's returns help the Flyers, or hurt them? 2) Will the same Flyers team that played Thursday night, show up in Pittsburgh? - Triple S Are you completely missing something here? or are you just that ing stupid? I've already taken into consideration you knowing nothing about hockey and are just posting here because you are a Philly fan. Like what Flyer team showed up Thursday night? They scored two goals on terrible penalties and a fluke goal from the blue line off our defenseman.. After that, they got ZERO calls and did absolutely nothing the rest of the game. It's funny to me though because you're going to keep arguing with me when you don't even know what you're saying. Just quit now.. maybe you should utilize the 12 hours a day you spend on the computer in looking up how the game is played since you've obviously never seen the ice yourself

Whats even funnier is you don't need to have "seen the ice" to know something about hockey. I'll be honest, I don't know the down deep rules of the NHL... but to watch the Flyers playing strong defense against the Penguins on Thursday, stripping the puck, waiting for the right opportunites and keeping the puck on net. It'squite obvious that THATS the team that showed up on Thursday, rather than the team that allows Malkin to sit in our zone and wait for the perfect opportunity for a break away goal.
The announcers and journalist say the EXACT same thing as I (and many others in this thread) am/are. People who have played for the NHL, are saying the Flyers came out strong and played a great game.
Get over yourself, even your fellow Penguins fan is telling you that it wasn't on the referees, nor cheap shots. The Flyers played BETTER than the Penguins and the score showed it.
EDIT: And i'll be honest again, what made me ORIGINALLY post in here was that the Flyers were in the playoffs, but after watching the New York/Pittsburgh, Philadelphia/Montreal, Detroit/Colorado and Dallas/San Jose series... I realised that I just enjoy watching hockey, which I used to watch a lot, but kinda got out of it (for whatever reason). But i've been enjoying the playoffs thusfar and definitely can't wait until the beginning of the 2008-2009 season. If it bothers you that bad, thats a shame.
biggles, I think the complete opposite. I have this big gut feeling the Penguins will put the Flyers away today, but it'll be a hell of a game. Hope i'm wrong, but as long as we give up a "never quit/never stop" effort... i'll be happy.

They made stupid no-look passes causing them to turn the puck over constantly. and i never once mentioned anything about a cheap shot.. yeah i have some penguin fan that doesn't even live here telling me what is and isn't.. real cute. he's just another pick-up fan because we are good and our town decided to build a new stadium for them so they don't have to go to his shitty town

Im not sure who's going to win tonight. If it looks like the Flyers come to play I think there will be a game 6. But if its the same Flyers team that showed up in Games 1,2 and 3 then theyre screwed.
Also there was a good point Ive come across lately. With the crap calls againt Detroit and (No offense to Philly fans) Philly just happening to win in Game 4. Leads me to believe that Bettman is doing something to the teams, like having the refs throw the game. How much money is he going to make if two teams get sweeped in the Conference final? Now I know Philly played great in Game 4 but lets see if they continue to tonight

They didn't make stupid turnovers with the puck, and utilized every chance in the offensive zone they had. Biron played his best game since the Montreal series, and really only let in one goal that was his fault(the other was from behind the net and bounced off his back and couldn't see it). The Flyers showed up in that game.

The only possible way for me to gain interest in the playoffs again would be for Dallas to make the miracle comeback and make it to the Stanley Cup Finals. I was rooting for Pittsburgh in the East at the start of this thing, but that was mostly just because of how much I dislike Ottawa. I didn't care who won Pittsburgh/NYR and despite really wanting Philly to get dropped, at the same time I won't be that thrilled that Pittsburgh is in the finals. Not because I dislike them, but because they'll probably be up against Detroit. That in itself should be a great series, but the fact that Detroit is there and has a big chance of winning the Cup completely kills it for me.
If Pittsburgh had made it to the finals against a San Jose, Minnesota, or Anaheim, then it would be different.
So if Dallas makes the come back and gets to face Pittsburgh in the finals, it'd be pretty interesting again. Not to mention that the amount of 3-0 playoff leads this year have completely killed it for me. It's made for a boring postseason. Which is a shame after the very, very exciting first round.

Your telling me two super talented teams like Pittsburgh and Detroit are going to lose Game 4? How much money is going to draw from two teams sweeping their opponets. Im not saying that its happening but its weird. How about you just be quiet and watch your Penguins

Wow, Crosby does a takeaway that leads to goal and its "unbelieveable" and "amazing". Guess what Datsyuk does it ALL THE TIME! It shows how much the NHL are on Crosbys cock **Edit** CBC just called Crosby the greatest hockey player **Another Edit** Wow that was a long powerplay for Philly. 4 on 3 for a couple seconds before Philly takes a "penalty". That and the Penguin player holding Birons stick on the first goal. C'mon

Then I thought about how much of an idiot you are for actually suggesting some sort of conspiracy. Hey look! The Pens are taking care of business. How about those Wings eh? Your team couldn't get it done the past two games so quit being a sore loser and trying to cook up some conspiracy theory. Ps. Crosby IS the best player in the league. Get used to it. How's that for cocky?

How's that for cocky? And your calling me an idiot. The only reason there calling Crosby the best player is because that is the only way they can get money. And sadly he's the "best" born North American they can get. and Im gonna say this again because you have CrosbyCum in your eyes and cant read. IM NOT SAYING THAT THEY ARE DOING THAT.... IT JUST SEEMS PRETTY WEIRD TO ME. I guarentee that if Crosby did the same thing Homer did, NOTHING would get called against Crosby You can read right?
