how awesome is lavy...not even remotely complaining about the unsportsmanlike...even saying they were warned and didnt listen...i undertand a lot of this is gamesmenship..but still...lessons kids...lessons....

Great thing is he'd still tout the same line even after a loss.

It can't happen. They can't win the Cup. I've been waiting too long. This stuff just doesn't happen.

I still remember staying up to like 1am to watch them lose in Edmonton in 87.

Laviolette has been exactly what this team needs.  Regardless of whether you think coaching has a significant impact, he has pretty much been perfect for the Flyers.

i never knew it was that bad. was it even on a national channel?

i mean i know they are 2 wins away from the cup which is awesome but with all of this stuff and the versus thing....how in the world can anyone consider this league to be major? wait, why am i bringing this up. ignore this. eyes on the prize.

[rjs246]

Please stop talking about television you farging tool.

[PhillyGirl]

I want to say it was on PRISM. I don't think they did national games then?

I can't remember...someone help me out here. lol

[BigEd76]

I think it was ESPN and PRISM, then at the end of the 80s and early 90s it jumped to the regional SportsChannels that eventually became FOX Sports and CSN

[PhillyGirl]

Yup you're right. ESPN did do the games back then.
