Pre-Game Talk: MDSF: (1) Washington Capitals vs (WC2) Philadelphia Flyers

Chimera preparing his brass knuckles under his hockey glove so he can try and end careers all series.

Hopefully we get even for the Ghost cheap shot.


I actually feel better about this series than I did earlier.

We have played them well al year. This will be one of the hardest hitting series of the first round. They have several guys that will turtle with that kind of play, despite what caps fans say. Just look Backstrom going 0/19 in face-offs and being pretty invisible outside of a random post last game. We have guys that step up and they have guys that don't. They went out and tried to get guys that step up and that will help and likely beat us, but they are not long time players like many of the flyers are. And they certainly do not have the motivation the flyers do now. Imagine if G scores from the circles in the first period of game 1 and points to the rafters. That may be series over with emotional guys that we have.

Hope Ray plans on hanging out behind the net so he can give some 'tips' to his 'buddy'

THAT, would be truly epic on so many levels - can't wait for this series!

I just want to say that I'm already sick of hearing about Wilson. You'd think he was the second coming of Lindros...

The only time I ever hear about him is about how he's a plug.

Who is that suppose to be for the Flyers?? (edit Ghost - looks nothing like him!)

Some are ok, but most are off IMO

 

[Beef Invictus]

Trotz is going to have a great gameplan to victimize our weaknesses and neutralize our strengths. He is really good at that.

This is going to be quite the test for Hakstol.

He's being mentioned as a gamebreaker by multiple people on the main boards.

If anything, this is why I wanted them to get in, even if they lose.

who is emery smacking around here?

The Flyers need to take advantage of his awful possession game, and propensity for taking dumb penalties.

It's ok not to remember that one. That game was one of the worst defeats in recent history and nothing to be proud of.

A student just Tweeted me this video and I haven't seen it posted here yet. Got goosebumps throughout. They should hire that person, pronto.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

The feels when Mr. Snider walks down hallway with Kylo Ren voiceover.

 

[Beef Invictus]

Alright, the spot where you hear Ford say "The dark side" and see a few rivals, followed by "the Jedi" over Mason being a beast is damned fine.

 

[AzFlyersFan]

That part where it says "I'm no one." and shows Ghost. So fitting. Nobody ever predicted he would come along and propel this team. Awesome video.

 

[Tripod]

That video is fantastic!

Can someone add it to the PRE-game thread on the main boards. People need to see this!

 

[might2mash]

So it's cool to wear the Richards jersey again this series, right?
