Its win or go home. Lets hope they don't follow their usual MO and fall behind early. Then try to put on a big push with 6 minutes left in the game. The big push needs to start immediately.

Joe Thornton's Dad was into it last night!

I don't think the Flyers are gutless by any means. The series against Boston a few years ago proved that. They don't always play smart, or play a full 60 minutes, but I don't think the Flyers have any frauds on their roster. If the Rangers win the series, I will be disappointed, but not surprised. I think the Rangers are the better team.

I agree the rangers are better, but I can't accept that answer until the flyers give them their best effort which I have yet to see, unfortunately.

That is the frustrating thing. Flyers are in the series without playing well.

I still don't think they go home tonight. Call me optimistic or stupid but I just don't feel like a loss is coming. Not tonight anyway. God I hope I'm right.

Gill still with Streit and Hartnell still on the top line.

Berube rolls out the same crew that played Game 5 and gets the same result, he's going to get crucified.

yeah - they gotta change it up.

What's that say about the awesome rags? This is why i feel the pressure is on them and the flyers can win this series still.

I don't understand why Laughton isn't being considered. Akeson has very little NHL experience, and he's been a contributor this series.

I don't think the Rangers are better overall. They block more shots and their D is quick at moving the puck up the ice - I think they are playing better than the Flyers. I think the flyers are playing at like a C level....Rangers probably at a B+. If they can give an A favor and dominate tonight and put some doubt into their heads going to MSG

I think the Rags have weaknesses. They have a top defense pairing that is very good, and a top goalie. Outside of that, their team is pretty pedestrian.

If they lose tonight he should be fired. No excuse for going back to Gill.

I don't know about being fired, but doing the same thing and expecting a different result doesn't make much sense.

If he only buried his chance in game 5. I hope he gets a long look next year. His decisions with the pick need to be faster and there's only one way to do tht

I would rather have Gusty. Even last game I would have preferred Gusty.

I dont care about the "roles". They need to change it up.

The thing about the rangers is they are playing a much, much better overall team game which is why we look like chickens with our heads cutoff. The flyers need to play better as a team if they want to win tonight.

Yeah, I think Akeson has done as well as can be expected. He certainly has proved he belongs. I think he's got a good chance to stick next year. Flyers need some cost controlled players to fill a few spots.

Yup. And after playing the guy all series, it's stupid to send him back, IMO. Might as well see if he can take the next step now.

All this Akeson talk, I think he scores tonight

I hope he does score. He's certainly getting chances.

Can you imagine if the Rags score the GWG tonight with someone blowing by Hal Gill...

Hartnell falls down on the PP, puck dribbles through timonens feet, Moore skate circles around Gil and bank it in off coburns nose for a shorthanded winner.

I'd rather have Gill - although he had a rough game 5, he's not the reason they lost. Gus < Gill.

Game 6 - Flyers offense sparks a 5-2 win.

Game 7 - 3-2 Flyers in 7OT. Mason with a 84 save game.
