    Just for fun, the Flyers vs. Rangers playoff history:

    1974 Flyers beat Rangers 4-3 in Semifinals; home teams wins every game, Flyers go on to win Cup
    1979 Rangers beat Flyers 4-1 in Quarterfinals; Fred Shero beats his old team, Rangers lose to Habs in Final
    1980 Flyers beat Rangers 4-1 in 2nd Round; on way to Final (lose to Islanders)
    1982 Rangers beat Flyers 3-1 in Patrick Semis; then lose to Islanders
    1983 Rangers beat Flyers 3-0 in Patrick Semis; then lose to Islanders
    1985 Flyers beat Rangers 3-0 in Patrick Semis; on way to Final (lose to Oilers)
    1986 Rangers beat Flyers 3-2 in Patrick Semis; then lose to Canadiens in Conf Final
    1987 Flyers beat Rangers 4-2 in Patrick Semis; on way to Final (lose to Oilers)
    1995 Flyers beat Rangers 4-0 in East Semis; Stanley Cup Champs swept out, Flyers 3rd and last 4-0 sweep, then lose to Devils
    1997 Flyers beat Rangers 4-1 in East Final; get crushed in Final by Red Wings

    Flyers lead 6-4. Now with 9 series vs. Buffalo, who is catching up to the Rangers as most frequent Flyers playoff opponent. Flyers are 6-3 vs. Sabres.

    16-7 in quarterfinals/2nd round (won 16 of last 20)
    8-8 in semifinals

    222A, row 14 - $325 for 2 tixx with $25 arena credit on each ticket. $111 is pretty good apparently.

    You wanna hear about a rip-off...I was looking at the "MarketPlace" where season ticket holders re-sell their game tickets

    Not only do they jack up the price but on the website there is a 20% Service Charge !!

    Boston is going to be tougher than some of you are giving them credit for.

    They are big and can skate and have above average goaltending. Seems if memory serves, they played the flyers tough during the season, and i suspect they will be out to avenge last seasons collapse.
