    Buffalo. #4. No cups. They were #3 before a year or 2 ago. Sabres have had a pretty good history. Lots of playoffs, great teams. Punch Imlach made them a legitimate team almost right out of the gate when they were an expansion team in 1970.

    Did you see the Houston Aeros winning percentage over six seasons? :shock:

    Agree on both counts. Giroux was pissed at the refs and took it out on Zubrus. Goonery at its finest. Goodbye Flyers.
    I smile, but who am I kidding...

    this is terrible...

    The Flyers have gone nine straight regulation time periods without registering more than 10 shots on goal.

    after the game the other night i was trying to come up with another professional franchise that has won as many games as the Flyers have but who haven't won a title in 37 years. i can't come up with one. it's staggering to think this franchise has gone that long without a title.

    eagles?

    It's gonna be a 3-2 Flyers win or a 6-1 loss. I hope this team has the pride to at least show up on home ice.
    Go Birds!!!!

    sounds like a bitter pens fan.

    ironic that you are saying shit about giroux after the shit your team pulled. now beat it and try to find a pens thread to cry in

    Why don't you make like a tree, and get out of here.

    The Bills?

    The Bills are historically awful. Minus 1987-94... and a few playoff seasons shortly after that, they are probably among the worst in the NFL. Did get an AFL Championship in 1964 and 1965.

    8th worst overall.

    briere will just move up to the first unit.

    here are guys that need to show up tonight...

    **everyone on d except coburn, who's been arguably their best player this series (after bryz, which is how bizarre the series has been)
    **jvr...dude is way too inconsistent from game to game. I really wish he would stop doing that bitch move when he comes down the right wing and only leaves one hand on his stick. That allows the defender to push him right past the net. Two hands on the stick, put your head down, and drive to the front. I'd love to see them package him and bob for nash this offseason
    **simmonds
    **jagr...looks old and spent out there
    **couturier
    **hartnell...no dumb penalties. be physical early and set the tone. try to stay on your skates and be a pain in the ass you were vs pitt

    I also hope that laviolette gives talbot some more ice time. I know he's mostly a role player, but he's got a knack for producing in big games.

    gotta find a way. extend the series and all the pressure and momentum swing the other way...esp with giroux coming back for game 6 (and hopefully 7)

    I gotta think JVR may be trade bait for a D-man upgrade in the off season. Outside of the playoffs last year, he just doesnt show the skill set of a #2 pick nearly enough.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    I want them to sign weber. If they get an injury exception for pronger (like the did with rathje, primeau, laperriere), that could happen
