Whatever gets you off...

You should check out the 2 series the Rangers have won in the past 14 years.

I guess everyone missed richards setting up the tying goal. :roll:

He hasn't put up the offensive numbers, but I think he's been OK. He's always solid defensively and he plays physical. He can play better (like he did in the montreal series last year when he was the best player on the ice), but it's not like he's been jeff carter bad. It's funny, during the playoffs you can't tell if carter is in or out of the lineup. HIs presence in both scenarios has the exact same on-ice impact. Hopefully his yeast infection heals up nicely.

Like johnny said, lavy starting leighton was the worst coaching decision in philly since mcnabb got benched for kolb vs baltimore.

Flyers should be fine in game 7 as long as Boosh doesn't allow any softies. Buffalo just isn't good outside of Miller. Losing to this team would be reminiscient of the Eagles/Cards NFC title game. Let's keep David Akers out of Philly for this one.

And knocking one of Buffalo's players out of the series.

Wasn't he involved in the winning goal too?

Pretty sure it was Versteeg with the shot and then Leino knocking the rebound in

Pressure was on Sunday. Pressure was winning 4 straight elimination games vs. Boston.

Tonight will be fun.

Enjoy watching other teams in the playoffs Neily, just like every other year. :P

richards has been his usual average self with 2 ridiculousy bad penalties to boot.

pretty good call on goaltending not being an issue too :roll: :roll:

that being said i like the flyers 3-1 tonight.

did you watch the playoffs last year? you must not have, because richards was an animal.

I really don't understand how someone can like carter and dislike richards. Unless that person doesn't watch the games. Actually that would explain a lot of your posts

the PP is more to blame than the goaltending in this series. no question.

what does richards last year in the playoffs have to do with this year? richards has sucked in this series except for 2 plays. and he is an average offensive player at best. glorified blair betts. great penalty killer no doubt (when he is not taking stupid penalties himself) but the rest of his game, bleh nothing special.

hard to blame the offense when they were in a huge hole in games 5 and 6 and managed to go 1-1 in those games. no one in the league could have survived those 2 goaltending debacles.

richard is an all around player. he does a little bit of everything. comparing him to betts is brilliant stuff by you . that's one for the pjhawks wall of shame. We're running out of space here.

you know they lost 2 games 1-0 right? that means they didn't score any goals in either game. they have lost 3 games. in two of those losses they haven't scored a goal. think about that really, really hard. I bet you reconsider the gaolie vs PP thing.

kaleta is out tonight. rumor has it that richards gave him a concussion too (seriously).

grier might also be out.

Without Kaleta, who is going to motivate Brierre to make locker room speeches?
