I am just saying back in October I was thinking Philly could do it. So I could and did thunk it. Was really suprised to see the Pens go down. I like the mix of players on Philly as to a cup run. Their issue will be goaltending. I dont see Boucher as a cup goalie, but you never know

Congrats to the Habs and the B's need a kick in the ass! I would love for the B's to play the Habs in the Eastern conference finals.

This is the worst time for teh B's to hit a scoring Drought like they have been doing all year.
At least tehy put one in the net this game. They may not have won but what they did do is at least put up a halfway decent game last night. Not great but they showed up to play.

Friday Night

Back in October I thought so too, and, like you, I couldn't see Boucher carrying the team to the cup either...of course that will fall on Leighton's shoulders now that Boucher's out for a month. You obviously always hate to see someone get injured, but I think Leighton getting to play may be a blessing for the Flyers. I think he's the better goalie of the two.

I'm stoked by the heart the Flyers are showing. They seem to play their best when their backs are against the wall... but when they went down 3-0, a lot of Flyer fans around here were giving up hope. Truthfully, I wasn't one of them, as a few guys I was watching the beginning of the game with last Friday could attest.

Bring on game 7!
