Have not been watching as close as some years. Is Pittsburgh rising at the right time or are the Flyers just playing that poorly? The Golden knights are very quick, who do you feel matches up the best with them? The Stanley Cup has to be the toughest trophy to win, a team needs to win 16 games to win the cup which means up to a total of 28 games could be played if all went to 7 that is really a tough climb after playing as many matches as they do to get there.
Bryce The Flyers just played that poorly!

Bryce vegas only scored 8 goals in the whole series against la .... they are a good team but will need more offense to advance .... a couple of teams that look good to me so far are Winnipeg and tampa bay ....

Bryce The Flyers just played that poorly! No idea why Flyers start a goalie who missed the last half of the season with an injury, and then apparently returned with no glove hand stoppage ability..... and then suit up another goalie who missed almost as much time. Why not dance with the one that brung ya? Mrazek and Lyons did the stretch work to get them into the playoffs. They should be the ones suited and in net. Also, why change everything you've done all year? No blue line defensemen slapshots, mixing up lines, trying to play wide open hockey with Pittsburgh? No wonder they are losing. In typical Philly fashion, look for fire sale trades in the off season that will haunt the Flyers for the next 10 years. How about those Phillies?

Morrissey was suspended for one game for the cross-check. I'd trade the suspension in a second for the one minute 5 on 3 the Wild would have had last night. Ya us too,but what about the Neideritter HEAD BUTT on Charot-it is what it is-some get missed.

Ya us too,but what about the Neideritter HEAD BUTT on Charot-it is what it is-some get missed. You can't even begin to compare the two in significance, the head tap was meaningless, he didn't get injured, probably barely even felt it. Had no bearing on the game. How many cross-checks have the refs let the Jets get away with? The no-call very well cost the Wild the game. Instead of the Wild having a 5 on 3, and after that another 4 minute power play (the penalty should have been a major) the Jets go down and score assisted by the guy that should have been thrown out of the game. Plus when the cross-check happened, it took Stall out of play, he laid there on the ice while power play went on without him. So technically, it was no longer even a power play. Then didn't return for the rest of the period, and he's the Wild's only 40 goal scorer. How can you compare that to a meaningless head tap? Everybody talking about it today on the sports radio stations said it should have been a two game suspension because he should have been ejected from the game Wednesday. I would agree.

On another note.
Winnipeg is giving it to Minnesota The only game the Wild won was the game Winnipeg had to fly circles around the state looking for a place to land because of the blizzard. Time for the Wild to dump some core players and start over, this group has done nothing in the playoffs for years. Teams like Winnipeg are young and only going to get better.
