my point is that if you lose two games where you only allow 1 goal...then those games are on the offense. the flyers have lost 3 games in the series. In two of those games they have only allowed 1 goal and scored none. You can't blame the goalies for those losses.
the goalie play has been up and down, but if the PP is even average this series is over in 5.
this isn't rocket science boys. come on.
definitely ... but you need to factor in that goalie play affects the offense as well ... when you aren't confident that your goalie is gonna make the stops you have to play more conservatively ... it's why the flyers have had to come back the last few games ... goalies let in bad goals and they've had to open it up ... they've been lucky in that the offense was able to do that ...
I don't believe this. I think the flyers are just that much better than buffalo. The sabres have needed flukey goals and miller to even stay competitive in these games.
The flyers have dominated 90% of this series. Unfortunately the scoreboard and series record don't reflect this

The Flyer skaters have had possession of the puck for better stretches of time... but goalies are part of the team too. I would say the teams have been pretty even based on the record. Goals are something like 17-16 Flyers.

True. What are shots? I'm guessing the flyers have outshot buffalo close to 2:1.
Flyers are -160 tonight. I'm surprised...I thought they would be around -200. Those low odds make me nervous for the first time since Leino scored on sunday
You could argue that each game has been a coin toss. Buffalo has won 3 out of their last 4 in Philly, and last season, away teams were 4-0 in Game 7's. Plus you have the unpredictability of the goalie match up. Miller could be lights out.... or he could be average. One the other side, you have a goalie who last time starting let in a few despicable goals.... but he also has the experience and the ability to hold the Sabres to 2 or less goals.
Shots arent 2-1, it hasnt been too rediculous, but the Flyers have a decent edge. I think the Sabres have also blocked a ton of shots.

you are nuts. maybe if it's tipped at the net you have a case, but the shot was released right at the flyers stick.

at least i'm not nervous
Home ice doesn't mean shit in hockey
for some reason it hasnt been strong in Game 7's in the past few seasons.... which probably has kept the Vegas line a little towards the center.
in 2000 the flyers blew a 3-1 series lead in the ECF with games 5 and 7 at home. I dont think home ice means anything in the playoffs.
I wish the flyers would kick lauren hart to the curb. she is the anti-kate smith. They haven't won anything since she started signing at games.
I laid 320 to win 200.
lauren hart. AIDS. we lost. she's the ultimate mush
miller good start
i had to bet the dog
they look good boys..gotta get 1 by miller
that wasn't a penalty. MLB allows more contact than the NFL and NHL these days. Fucking gay
regardless..they're taking people out..old time hockey eh?
the sabres are a bitch team. myers and kaleta are the only ones that hit
bugs on a windshield
although buffalo better pick it up soon or it will be over....flyers are toooo dominant in the 1st
man, you are bad.
he tried to dribble that like a basketball
go flyers
crazy eh???????
i amaze myself
should be 7-0
long way to go
