Phightins Posted April 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Tomorrow will be weird. Playoff preview, but the game means nothing for either team. Hoping the Flyers rest a bunch of guys. The Penguins have been dirty as hell this week, don't want to risk any injuries. Not just saying this as a dig at PIT, it is a legitimate concern. All of these "accidental" knee-on-knee hits are getting ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phightins Posted April 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Also, Nik Grossmann signed to a contract extension. Still awaiting details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phightins Posted April 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 Hahahaha thank god this game means nothing. Zac Rinaldo given a 5 minute major and game misconduct for....um, well, I am still trying to figure that part out. Not even mad, just laughing. Totally get why the refs want the Rinaldo types off the ice today, but that was a pretty lame way to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phightins Posted April 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 Playoff schedule will be released today. Word is that the first 4 games of Flyers-Pens will be Weds-Fri-Sun-Weds. Extra day off thanks to the Sixers being home next Tuesday. Anyway, this is super...no conflict with the Phillies game I have tickets for on Thurs!

Phightins Posted April 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2012 (edited) I think I am in love with Brayden Schenn. BTW...lets get it out of the way, I will admit the first Briere goal was way offsides. But I couldn't care less. What a win!

Phightins Posted April 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 JvR is apparently ready to go. Not playing tonight though. No way Lavy changes the lineup with a 3-0 series lead. But it's great to know that he's ready. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phightins Posted April 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 Definitely the right call to pull Bryz for the sake of this game. But assuming this series goes back to Pittsburgh, things will get interesting. Bryz takes shit like this so personally. Although what's the worse that can happen? Can't really be much worse than he's been. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phightins Posted April 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 JvR for Rinaldo, Gustafsson for Kubina, lets get it done in game 5 and pretend tonight didn't happen. Kthnx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phightins Posted April 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 (edited) Obviously concerned, but won't be panicking unless we lose tomorrow. If the team that showed up in the third period last night shows up again tomorrow, we are not losing. That team doesn't lose two games in a row, much less four. Seems like Bryz has no lateral movement. Lots of talk about a nagging hip injury, which he is of course denying. But that would explain a lot. Anyway, not sure what I'd rather have. An injured Bryz with no lateral movement, or a cold Bob, who has played like 5 total periods in the last 2 months. Neither option is very appealing.

Phightins Posted April 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 Ballin. This one feels very good. Very real chance of being the top seed in the East next round. Pretty ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phightins Posted April 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2012 Had high expectations for Bryz this series. Looks like we will indeed need to win in spite of him. This game has been total Flyers domination since the first period, will be a shame to put it to waste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phightins Posted May 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 Haven't seen them this terrible in at least a month. Hopefully it's a one-time thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phightins Posted May 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 Letting the Gus-Lilja pairing on the ice at the same time as the Briere line doesn't seem like the smartest of ideas. But it seems to be happening quite a bit... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phightins Posted May 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 I guess Marty's whining after game 1 paid off for him. Brutal GI on Schenn. I get that it was a makeup call for the Kovy penalty, but ridiculous nonetheless. Not a great night for the stripes so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JYD Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 (edited) Ballin. This one feels very good. Very real chance of being the top seed in the East next round. Pretty ridiculous.Not really. First of all, get past the Devils. Second of all, the Rangers have a better chance of beating Washington than the Flyers have of beating New Jersey. And that's not really a ridiculous proposition anyway...It's the NHL playoffs. Upsets run rampant, lol. Edited May 4, 2012 by JYD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phightins Posted May 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 And when I wrote it, it wasn't even intended to be a shot at the Rangers. The Bruins were in big trouble also. I was mostly happy/stunned that we'd wind up with home ice in the 2nd round, haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phightins Posted May 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 Too upset to watch the replay again, but thanks for nothing Lilja. Literally....nothing. I understand that he was hung out to dry on a 2-on-1, but he could not have handled that any more poorly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
