    Good luck Flyers, you've got your hands full I think.

    Yeah its gonna be a tough series. I can see the Flyers winning if they do three or four things:
    Contain Ovie.. you can't stop him but you have to limit opportunities, but can't lose sight of the Caps other big players
    Stay out of the box... with the snipers on the Caps, the Flyers have to limit the penalties
    Good, solid goaltending from Biron...
    Play Flyers hockey... do what got them here and roll 4 solid lines and forecheck.

    Can't wait to get home.. cook some wings and get the beer flowing....

    Friday/Sat night games are good thanks to beer and BBQ.
    Ovechkin is the obvious threat. Should be a good series.

    I placed a bet with a coworker that the Flyers will go further in the playoffs than the Rangers. And I do believe it. I think we can win this series in 6. But we obviously have to take 1 or both of these first two games in WSH.

    I be watching tonight, and looking forward to being in the Verizon Center in June to see PJ.

    Let's go Flyers!!!!!!!!

    Intense game. Feel awful for Thoresen he might lose a testical.

    Flyers LW Patrick Thoresen taken to hospital after hit in groin by Ovechkin shot

    The Associated Press

    WASHINGTON - Flyers left wing Patrick Thoresen was taken to the hospital for tests after getting hit in the groin by a shot during Philadelphia's 5-4 loss to Washington on Friday night.

    "He's going to the hospital to get an ultrasound done on his testicles. It's bad enough they may have to remove one," Flyers general manager Paul Holmgren said. "Right now, we're not sure how serious it is, but there's a chance he may need surgery."

    Thoresen blocked the shot with about 6 1/2 minutes left in the game, then dropped to the ice, writhing in pain. Moments later, Washington scored to tie the game 4-4.

    "Obviously, I'd have liked to see a whistle," Flyers coach John Stevens said.

    Thoresen was helped off the ice and taken to the locker room.

    I'm sure if that was Ovechkin laying there in pain the ref would have blown the play dead

    That's why it's a judgment call I guess....how many times have you seen guys look like they're dead on the ice and then skate off

    If the Flyers would have been anywhere close to getting possession of the puck, I think they would have blown it dead. It sucks but that goal didn't lose the game, it was the lack of intensity in the 3rd period and the lets hold on to the lead mentality which doomed us. With a win tomorrow, all is forgotten and home ice is ours.

    Have to hope for the split

    I read/stole this from another message board :

    "He's no game breaker, but Thoresen definitely has a pair of Nads."

    The Flyers have outplayed the Caps for 5 of the 6 periods.... just have to continue the effort and defensive play and hopefully Marty can give a few encore performances of game 2. He was good positionally and got alittle lucky at times with bounces but all in all a solid game and big win for the club.

    3 shutouts in past 4 games but everyone keeps talking about how rough Philly is playing instead of talking abotu how Biron is playing. Let's go FLYERS

    I'm sure Biron and the Flyers are just fine with that. And I think playing Ovie and the Caps in the first round has deflected alot of the playoff pressure from the Flyers forwards... which is alright by me as long as they keep performing.

    I see Ovie coming on strong early (after all the abuse he took in the media after game 2) and hopefully the Flyers don't get too juiced and make some silly, early mistakes due to the crowd's energy..... I'll be there on Thurday :D
