    Amazing grit and ballsiness to come back today. It's really tough to go on the road and win a Game 6 down 3-2, especially when you start a HORRIBLE goalie. :twisted:

    I mean, I'm not much of a fan of Bob, whatever happened to him. But this guy, I thought we cut him. It's like the nightmare that won't go away. Damn, just get rid of the fucking guy, how much does it take?

    Boosh had one bad game. Still it was a complete panic move for Lavi to start Leighton. One of the worst coaching decisions I've ever seen. I didn't even want to watch the game when he was in there. Considering the house full of people I had over, it wasn't even worth it.

    Ok, anyway, big-time Game 7 Tuesday! I'm hoping for a game like this: http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/recap/_/id/230422015/toronto-maple-leafs-vs-philadelphia-flyers :mrgreen:

    i'm going to focus on one positive and one guy who doesn't get enough talk around here. Danny Briere. wow what a playoff scoring machine this guy is. seriously is this guy one of the all-time Phlly playoff performers or what. averages over a point a game in the playoffs for his career. just awesome.

    Briere and JVR have been awesome i wish the Captain would take notes. And was it really worth dressing Pronger tonight?

    Bob has been a healthy scratch. Dont get the leighton start at all.

    Pronger looked weird sitting so much. Any word on his hand? His shot looked ok.

    Anyone see this? http://www.the700level.com/2011/04/repo ... tnell.html

    And on a related note, who the fuck wants to be Matt Barnaby??? Everything about Kaleta is perfectly and utterly Buffalo - and I mean that in every way to be derogatory possible.

    Yeah...I heard about it but didn't know what player said it to Briere

    Hopefully he crosses the line one more time

    While i am very happy about this win, i am really pissed at some players. to begin, what the hell is going on with Richard? i am not to impressed with him at all this playoffs.

    secondly, why is Giroux also trying to make pretty plays, he had some great chances at scoring yesterday but he is making one too many moves.

    How can we play Leighton in an elimination game when he has only played 1 games this whole season, I sometimes think that the Flyers like this whole situation around not having a #1 goalie. Bob had one bad game and now all of a sudden he is a healthy scratch?

    I still have faith that this team will win game 7 but these players have to improve if we are going to make it to the cup final.

    Finally 1 last thing, the refs have been horrible this series for both teams. Hopefully they let the game go alittle.

    Richards has been off this series....and his penalties arent helping

    Agreed with them being too fancy yesterday.....they had a string of open shots with about 3 to 4 minutes left in regulation that they completely botched due to over passing

    At least Pronger is back on the power play.....huge difference

    I agree about Pronger being back, i was actually surprised he played. he didn't really take a shot and i think his hand is still hurt but he does seem to have a calming effect on the power play. just keep him in front of the net like last year and our PP will get better.

    Even though I don't condone Richards' hit, I gotta say the irony is lovely after douchebag Ruff's comments earlier in the series....

    Report is no suspension or even discipline hearing for Richards. So get ready for more Lindy and Miller whining tonite and tomorrow.

    As bad as the hit looked, it didn't warrant a second look. The officials took care of the matter as they should have with a penalty. Richards didn't thrust Connelly into the boards although he put him in an awkward position when he knocked Connelly's right arm down before the hit.
