Round One: Philadelphia @ Pittsburgh

Of course the best part of all this, is that even if the Flyers DO lose tonight--by no means a foregone conclusion--going back to Philly will see things heat up even more.

:##:

Puck drops in just minutes from now...!!!!

:%%:

already a better paced game than game 1

wow i never thought i would say this but the refs might want to call a penalty soon they are letting everything go so far but its starting to get chippy and a little dirty ie the ref stand over malkin and philly player(not sure who) philly player didnt let malkin go way after the play and was holding his stick draging him down

Much closer game tonight...Hartnell redeemed himself.

philly is playing very hard tonight if they keep it up they have a good shot at a win

guerin ties it up late in the second philly hasnt been playing as hard in the second period kinda sitting back and waiting

Much tighter play in this one...Stevens has his guys more disciplined.

Beautiful shot by Guerin...absolutely whipped it past Biron short side.

that goal seemed to energize both teams with some great inspired plays in the final 3-4 minutes of the 2nd

should be a great 3rd
:D:

powe gives the 2-1 lead

philly has already retreated to a 2-1-2 with 11 minutes left

amazing save by fleury carter should have had that one

Holy $hite what a SAVE by Fleury on Carter!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Flyers have decided to play defense...and Biron's been solid...32 shots by the Pens so far.

a little too early to sit back though especially with crosby and malkin coming against you

malkin ties it with 3 min on the pp in the 3rd

penalties will kill you

great work by Staal to draw the hooking call

maybe we can get some good overtime hockey ....i was pumped for it last night but the hawks did let it last long enouhg
