I hate the Rangers, but nowhere near my hate for the Penguins. I hope we get treated to a Flyers / penguins playoff series again this year. Bad blood on both sides. Playoffs only intensify it.

Very important question.

Ray Emery replaced Mason for the Flyers. Emery came in at the beginning of the third and the Flyers were leading 2-1. Who gets the win if the score stays 2-1?

Mason.

SCORE Guins.

HUGE

Girouxxxxxxxx!!!!!!!!

 

[MindCrime]

Lol, that's what I get for posting while drinking, Letang answers

 

[MindCrime]

But this is why I'd love to see this matchup again in the postseason

 

[sporthenry]

Flyers match up going to be determined by a skills competition. Only fitting.

 

[sporthenry]

 

[MindCrime]

Flyers get Rangers, locked in.

 

[sporthenry]

Rags are a tough match up but rather play them. Henrik can steal a game or two which will probably be the difference but Pens will have Malkin and if Flyers are going to go on a long run, delaying when they play the Penguins is ideal.

 

[MindCrime]

The Flyers can start Emery in net tomorrow now that this is locked. Hoping Mason can get a few days rest and be ready for Wednesday or Thursday.

 

[Billy Bats]

MAF.

 

[JaxBill]

Eklund thinks both teams tried to throw game.... then backs off

Hockey Buzz Eklund ‏@Eklund 38m

MA Fleury TOTALLY tried to stop that shot. Unbelievably slow backhand to the net,,,

Hockey Buzz Eklund ‏@Eklund 37m

This is the worst case of throwing a game I have seen in years. Crosby played hard. Letang played hard. Everyone else???

Hockey Buzz Eklund ‏@Eklund 32m

To be clear, flyers didn’t put any effort into it either, but those last three goals…one by Pitt and two by Philly…incredibly questionable.

Hockey Buzz Eklund ‏@Eklund 31m

@sutphin_kyle both teams. The defensive coverage by Philly on the game tying goal was AS bad as MAF deflecting a slow backhand btw pads.

Hockey Buzz Eklund ‏@Eklund 28m

I apologize.Those two teams just went all out in an attempt to get two vital points and all the goals in the final minutes and OT..legit.

I guess he needs more page views.

A Pgh reporter said Bylsma claimed Hartnell went after Letang becz he recently had a stroke. "Dumb comment," Berube said.

This is the most ridiculous hockey game

4-2 Union with 3 minutes to go in the first period! Glad I bet the Under.

Pierre McGuire had the guy who dresses like Hulk Hogan that got into it with Hartnell in the '12 playoffs kicked out of the game today. Cy the cancer survivor. Apparently "Pierre" doesn't like being called by his birth name.

Flyers are gonna beat the Pens if they meet in the playoffs. Pens played good today. Most of them kept their cool, but right now it's the Flyers series to take if they play.

They won't see each other so no worries there.Pens and Flyers both headed for a first round exit.

Nice penalty shot game winner for Gionta in OT

Quick trips Bonino, Bonino on his knees on a bad angle back hands 12-footer.

Jakob Markstrom is really, really terrible. #1 goalie prospect gone to hell, even the Panthers fleeced the Canucks!!!!

Jackets are tough, but I don't think they take out the Pens. Rangers should beat them in the 2nd round though.

I do like cement as a color to be honest.

Markstrom could never play another NHL game for the rest of his career and it'd still be a good deal for the Canucks.

In five games head to head this season, #CBJ have held a lead on Pittsburgh for all of 56 seconds. Pens have led or been tied for 299:04.

I can't believe you'd rather play the Avs.

Anyway, you should be safe. Berglund, Tarasenko, Backes, Oshie, Sobotka and Pietrangelo are all scratched today.

 

[Bill Brasky]

LETS GO RED WINGS

I can't believe you'd rather play the Avs.

I'd rather the Wild play the Avs over any team in the West, including Dallas. Wild wouldn't win more than a game versus the Blues.

Normally I'd agree, but the Blues haven't played this bad in a few years. And I'm not talking since all the injuries. This has been a problem for about a month now. Avs are flying.. that team looks dangerous... though I do like the looks of the WIld offense right now, too.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Terrible penalty disallows Wings goal. Is this 2010?

Blues are a horrible matchup. Take the other night, they're playing like crap and beat up and they still had the puck all night and outshot the Wild by 30. Wild just can't match up with them physically. Last team they want to play.Avs' point total is a total aberration. Varly can't disguise it forever.

 

[Ghost Rider]

Touch call on Detroit there, but it kind of looked like he slashed at Miller prior to the shot, hence the goaltender interference. Like I said, tough call.

 

[ItsOnlytheRiver]

Just horrible.

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

Avs' point total is a total aberration. Varly can't disguise it forever.

yeah, he's playing out of his mind it seems. that team is not as good as their record suggests IMO.

 

[Ghost Rider]

Is it too much to ask for Ryan Miller to live up to his reputation and steal a game for the Blues? Apparently.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

No goaltender interference on that one? Shocking.

Perhaps not, but I think they are playing their best hockey right now.

he was completely screened!

It's never his fault, is it? He has sucked for the last few weeks, bottom line. This collapse is on him as much as anyone. I'll be happy to say good riddance to him when this season is over.

Blues fans are the worst. Makes it really hard to root for this team.

He's been really bad. He's had rough stretches throughout his career. Goalies have them.

Oddsmakers still have the Blues as one of the Cup favorites. Yet Blues fans here want to jump off a bridge before the playoffs have even begun.

 

[Ghost Rider]

Are you gonna tell me he has played well lately? Enough with the passive-aggressiveness. Do you think he has played well?
