ECQF: (2) Pittsburgh Penguins vs. (3) Philadelphia Flyers | Pittsburgh Leads Series 3-2

[Steazy Doo]

Care to explain?

Well considering the success they've had with Columbus in recent playoff history, and the intense rivalry between the two clubs, one would think it could have more of a physical and emotional impact on the team, then say a devils series.

Philadelphia can get into their heads. They could also easily lose.

 

[Its a Trap]

Votes Pens in 7. Will be an awesome series either way.

 

[Philadelphia Ducks]

I just hope we can win a game.

 

[Nadal On Clay]

Ill also go with Pens in 7. Flyers offense will give us trouble.

 

[Rob Brown]

Voted Pens in 6.

The Pens will be destroyed by the Flyers toughness, brah. Just like Columbus last season.

Yup, I was right. You're stuck in 2012.

not wut pitt wanted

I'd say the only team most Pens fans didn't want was NJ but we're confident against anyone.

You're definitely living in the past. Philly isn't as goony as in the past and Pittsburgh isn't mentally weak.

Of course Pittsburgh can lose but on paper out of all the matchups this is the best for Pittsburgh

I didn't say they were tough. Do you think that?

 

[MapleLeafs9]

Another solid rivalry series, but with that said, Pens in 5.

No, they can't. This isn't 2012. This won't be close.

flyers have worst coach ive ever watched, id move G back to centre, leier and weal need to play as it all about speed but we'll watched jori get lapped for a few game winners

 

[duffy9748]

Pens in 6, possibly 7. I think it will be great long term for the young core of the Flyers though to go against an experienced team like Pitt. Can’t wait to see Provorov, Patrick, Konecny, and Ghost.

I'm not living in the past by saying they'd prefer Columbus, and even NJ (despite the record) over Philly. I think that's reasonable. And I know they aren't goony, but it will be a physical series just because of how much the teams hate each other.

 

[Ser Grogu]

Dis gun be good.

Exactly, these aren't the Bylsma-era Pens, you don't beat em with physicality, they'll just skate circles around you while you try to chase hits....Flyers have to play to their strengths, which is speed n skill and they'll have a chance.

 

[The Rage Kage]

Pens in 5 likely. Flyers just dont match well at all. Hopefully in another year or two they can have a rematch.

 

[PALE PWNR]

LET'S GO FLYERS f*** YEA WOOOOOOOOOOOO PLAYOFFS BABY LETS f***ING GOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[135ace]

Dear Penguins,
Kick the Flyers asses!

Yours truly,
Devils fans

 

[TheAngryHank]

Hockey gods exist,as fans we want this.
Go Philly.

Most all pens fans wanted Philly if given the choice. That said....it gets played on the ice. Anything can happen. Bring it on

 

[Jtown]

damn wish hartnell , schenn, lavy, neal , kunitz, and granato were back for this.

 

[smetana]

Two mediocre defensive teams go at it. Last goal wins. Pens in 6. LGP!!!

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

Dis gun be good.

Damn right Zamasu!

Ningens like us were begging for a battle of Pennsylvania. Pens win this one in 6 though :/
