I agree, whenever I see someone (Pens or Flyers) bring up that 2012 series in any context other than it being the most exciting yet worst hockey ever, I cringe. It's such an old, tiring, lazy narrative. The only thing more annoying is "1975" or "Bankrupt" which are essentially just responses to each other at this point. Come on guys, we're adult trolls now, get some new material.I agree that the "Best Player in the World" thing is overplayed, but I disagree that it's only Pens fans who keep bringing up the 2012 series. A few Flyers fans bring that series up whenever threads on HF pop up about "who can stop the Pens in the playoffs?" as a reason why the Flyers have their number.
I hope that this series has put to rest this notion that anything that happened in 2012 has zero relevance to today.
