Those montages were incredible, god I miss them.

 

[Rebels57]

Actually think Neuvirth gives the Flyers the best chance. Was a beast for them against the Caps two years ago.

Could see him stealing a game or two if he plays

This is what happened in 2016.

Mason lost the first 3 games.

Neuvirth came in and stole games 4 and 5 then gave them a fighting chance in game 6.

Neuvirth is hurt every other day now though. Probably wont even dress for the series.

Well....at least our young guys are gonna get experience?

Tonight's NHL Stanley Cup Playoff Referees and Linesmen - 4/11/18

Linesman #87, Penguins win confirmed.

Isn't there a rule against anyone over the age of 16 referring to their team as "we" as though they play for them? There has to be a rule about no "we" in the GDT on the main board. I know - it fits the overall Pens motif, but should be discouraged by the Pens fans who are old enough to vote.

Imagine caring about this...

 

[JimmyTwoTimes]

Well....at least our young guys are gonna get experience?

Guentzel(with 40 games of nhl experience) had 13 g 10a 23p in last years playoffs.

Doubt we will see another rookie do something like that but the Flyers do have some promising young players who havent seen the playoffs yet.

Some guys are just built for the playoffs no matter what they do in the regular season..and some are the opposite.

If Philly is going to make a run, it will be because a few of the young guys go on a tear...helping out their veteran core players.

I suspect it also requires goalie collapses from the opponent in 2 rounds.

I would say it is obvious that Konecky and Patrick will be heroes in this series if the Flyers win.

7-0 Flyers

Who cares? I do it all the time. Not on purpose. It just happens.

We all need a reason to get up in the morning.

Let’s just be happy neither the Pens or Flyers do the CBJ 5th line nonsense.

 

[Sidney the Kidney]

My prediction for the outcome of tonight's game: Whichever team loses, their fanbase will all but concede the playoffs. Whichever team wins, they've basically swept.

Until the next game, when we'll repeat this exercise all over again.

Gert, I scrolled through some of your posts and see you reference "one of our young players." Are you a team owner, Gert?

 

[PensandCaps]

I hope we win this game easily.

If Flyers fans do that then I don't think they were paying attention to the prior 82 games, or our teams' series.

It is troubling that Sullivan has deduced, correctly, what his ideal matchups for success are. And that Hakstol has incorrectly deduced that those identical matchups are also what he needs.

You shouldn't. You're letting down the entire team.

NEVER! Now get off my lawn..

 

[Wolf Larsen]

I still have nightmares of Tim Kerr. Please don't give the Flyers any hope tonight.

Naw. I think anyone with common sense knows Philly is outmatched on the ice...and very much behind the bench. Oh, and in net.

Even if Philly finds a way to match Sid and Malkin somehow, the Pens bottom 6 will eat away at the Flyers bottom 6 and lesser dmen.

Flyers score a lot of goal - OH BOY. IT'S 2012 AGAIN!

Pens win - YOU TANKING IDIOTS TANK YOUR WAY TO THE CUP.

Immature Pens fans - How are Sid/Geno ever going to cement their legacy without a 4th Cup? What a waste of talent.

Smart HF Pens/Flyer fans - (click ignore user) "Wow that was a good game 1. Anyone wanna chat about hockey? Nope.. just bickering. Okay." (logs off)

 

[Beau Knows]

Simmonds and Hornqvist are going to be the cause of so much rage in these threads during this series.

Gotta love when people don't realize post history is the easiest thing to look up.
