Uh-oh.

[Eagaholic]

final score tonight 1-0?

[ice grillin you]

the key here is the flyers are playing great in their own zone...has breezy faced a single good scoring chance yet?

wow that was an unreal dive by malkin but nhl refs will not call a dive without a matching penalty

[Geowhizzer]

Seems like it's going to be a penalty fest.

[Eagaholic]

Nice!

cant believe they are actually calling pit, especially malkin. must want a long series

[Eagaholic]

Schenn has had I think 3 turnovers so far

[Eagaholic]

Ha! I missed that Malkin Crosby head to head collision on the PP. It's about time somebody did, fine if it was a pen.

[ice grillin you]

really impressed with the flyers defensive zone coverage this game...the penguns havent had more than one or two good non power play chances

thats what you gotta do to win with breezy in net

[ice grillin you]

and there you go...if the opponent gets a good scoring chance breezy is not stopping it

[ice grillin you]

the pens are pretty much back to being the best team in the nhl and the team everyone picked ot go to the cup finals

man are they moving the puck in an incredible fashion tonight

[Hawk]

Game over

[Munson]

Lazy ass defense

[Hawk]

Mikey miss is an idiot.  Acting like game six is a gimme.   There's going to be so much negative energy and fans expecting the choke.

[ice grillin you]

they should win game six...but its certainly not a gimme...lot depends on who is back for them

and you dont know sports if you think this would be a choke....penguins are a much better team

you also dont know hockey or the flyrs if you think their fans would bring negatve energy into a playoff game....they will be incredibly all in

[Geowhizzer]

Coughing up a 3-0 series lead would be a choke of monumental proportions.  I don't care if Pittsburgh is the second coming of the 1980's Oilers and this Flyers team was an ECHL team.

And the Flyers fans would be all in... until the Penguins took the lead.
