4/5, Flyers come to town

[The Napkin]

Is it time for the playoffs yet?

 

[MoGator71]

Its time to remind the city of Boston that they might not want to be planning the parade just yet.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Bruins clinch home ice with a win or a Pitt loss. Let's do that and rest some people (CHARA) up.

I hope nobody thinks that. This is the NHL, not the NBA, and any team playing well with a hot goalie can win a series. The 8 seed won the cup two years ago. Then again, finishing the season with the most goals and least allowed would be pretty awesome. I can't recall a team being a bigger favorite to win a Conference (maybe Vancouver in 2011?), even though those odds may not be anything better than, say, 50-60%.

Looks like no Iggy or Miller.

May have a Potter experience today.

As I recall, it was the city of Philadelphia that was a bit premature in that regard.

Yea that was the joke. That was some seriously stupid shit. Probably Fred X's idea.

The Flyers really need at least a point out of this. Columbus and Detroit are coming and I want no part of Boston in the first round.

Reilly Smith wins the 7th player Award.
 
I guess most of the voting took place before the last two months of the season.

Reilly Smith wins the 7th player Award.

 
<<---- Proud fellow alumnus right here.  Good for Reilly.

 

[FelixMantilla]

Sad to see Derek looking so old. He's been through a lot. He was one hell of a player.

 

[cshea]

FFS leave Rinaldo alone. Don't get dragged into his shit.

 

[FelixMantilla]

One of the few clean hits of Rinaldo's career.

 

[LogansDad]

Looch gets angry about a clean hit.  Save that shit for when it's deserved.

 

[MoGator71]

No idea why Nik Grossmann is playing. He hasn't been great and he's hurting...free Erik Gustafsson

 

[MoGator71]

Marchand wouldn't be half as annoying if he wasn't a good player and was just a pain in the ass

 

[LogansDad]

Marchand wouldn't be half as annoying if he wasn't a good player and was just a pain in the ass

So you're saying he would be Alex Burrows?

 

[FelixMantilla]

Fuck yeah!

 

[Dogman]

Nice play, solid passing.

 

[Nomar813]

Krejci!

 

[SoxFanInCali]

Nice.

 

[LogansDad]

Yes!!

 

[MoGator71]

So you're saying he would be Alex Burrows?

Or Dan Carcillo. Or Rinaldo for that matter.

Ugh juicy rebounds.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Last minute, hold onto your butts.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Dear God, squint your eyes a bit, man.

 

[MoGator71]

150 minutes without a goal. Aren't winning a damn thing that way.

 

[FelixMantilla]

Holy shit Bergy.

 

[FelixMantilla]

Doesn't Jack realize that Rinaldo is a dickhead?

 

[Ed Hillel]

Bergy never had control.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Shoooot the puck.

 

[The Napkin]

Doesn't Jack realize that Rinaldo is a dickhead?

Was what he said wrong?

 

[RedOctober3829]

Too much passing.  Need to shoot it.  Regardless, liking the start to the 2nd.

 

[MoGator71]

Holy fuck Rosehill Jesus...he's worse than Lugo

 

[Ed Hillel]

That is fucking terrible.

 

[Dogman]

What a dive

 

[Myt1]

I hope he's OK.

 

[MoGator71]

Shush Brick, Kimmo don't flop.

 

[Nomar813]

 

[Ed Hillel]

How the fuck?

 

[FelixMantilla]

Officials not covering themselves in glory again. Both referees and linesmen.

 

[MoGator71]

And the Flyers PP sucks doggie dick vs. Boston anyway

 

[RedOctober3829]

How was that icing????

 

[Ed Hillel]

Rask!

 

[SpacemanzGerbil]

Great ass crack, NESN.

They read my posts in the 7th Player thread obviously.

 

[MoGator71]

Bergeron makes me want a Bruins jersey.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Hartnell taps Thornton to challenge and then skates away.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Bergeron makes me want a Bruins jersey.

 
You know you want to.

 

[FelixMantilla]

Holy shit Tuukka.

 

[Nomar813]

Holy shit.

 

[SoxFanInCali]

That wasn't good.
 
Tuukka bails him out.
