the caps and pens are the only teams in the Eastern Conf that scored more goals than the flyers. scoring goals isn't the problem. and you can always find dudes that can score.
you were right the first time, their main problem is in net. price is still young...I think getting out of montreal would be good for him. carter is nothing special...he set the record for getting stoned in a playoff series last year vs pittsburgh
Price can be really good - he has shown he can play extremely well. The problem is that he is very inconsistent (on a team ripe with inconsistency...). But he's young and lots of potential. I don't want to get rid of him and hope we keep him, but it probably would be good for him.[/quote]
Thats my point you can't trade a proven 40 goal scorer for a guy thats not proven
The Flyers are just as inconsistent as the Habs if not more so
If I'm trading Carter i want a proven goalie not a guy "who needs a change of scenery"[/quote]
i don't know if you can say carter is a proven 40 goal scorer as he only has 1 season as a 40 goal scorer. i would trade carter for price but just not only for price. i think a 2nd round pick has to come back to philly. carter right now has shown more promise than Price and should get more. anyway, GO FLYERS GO[/quote]
totally agree. carter disappears too often in big games. he's a role player, not a franchise player. trade his ass
I'm a flyer fan...hate to sound like debbie downer, but I'll be shocked if this team wins 3 games in round 1. everyone is getting carried away with this win...and the devils matchup. I know flyers won 5 of 6 vs NJ, but they still suck. and now they have boucher. it's gonna be ugly
I hope the Flyers crush the Devils. For some reason the Pens can't beat the Devils to save their soul yet have no problem with the Flyers. Granted, if the top four seeds win out then the Pens would face the Caps next and I'm not loving that matchup either, but I'm all about the lowers seeds pulling out upsets.
I bleed orange and black but i have to be honest, I don't have much hope for
Boucher. He isn't consistent at all and allows way too many easy Goals... who knows though maybe he will be standing on his head for the playoffs. Can't see us beating the pens or caps but crazier things have happened.
honestly, i don't have very high expectations for the playoffs. but NJ has been crap the last 4 playoff trips and the Flyers played well agaist NJ during the season. obviously, NJ has the goaltending advantage, but Philly has a more potent offense (depending on which team shows up). I would also give the Flyers a slight advangtage on the blue line. But playoff hockey is about goaltending....so who knows.

Good points, but NJ typically plays a better defensive game than most teams. Could be a good series, we'll see tonight.
Even if you lose, stealing one of two in NJ is not a bad result.

I didn't bash Carter I don't want him to be traded
He's not a franchise guy but he's still more proven then Price

Jersey doesn't really bang much other than Clarkson so we don't need that many checkers
