It's okay if Pittsburgh loses. Bettman already promised the #1 overall pick to us. Pittsburgh needs their new French Canadian superstar for the next generation.

Dubas might be in trouble. Tanner's state of mind might be suffering. I'm genuinely concerned.

Edmonton for sure. Getting de haan back for chicago truly helped solidify their top defensive pairings. Toews and kane have something to prove to the naysayers, keith looked fresh . Those who are complaining about Chicago giving up 4 goals forget that crawford had no training camp this was only his 2nd time on the ice .

Crawford can easily steal a game.


I thought Chicago's puck possession game plan showed edmonton had no plan to stop chicago


Chicago wins this series 3-0

Seeing as how Pittsburgh dominated the game and Montreal only won on the back of Price, the Oilers are the ones in trouble. Pittsburgh just needs to not overreact.

I was tremendously impressed by Toews. He looked the Toews of 7 years ago

Pïtthsburgh dominated the first 10 minutes, thats it.
You're pushing it. Montreal actually dominated the OT frame. it was a pretty even game that price won in the first period.

Crawford?? Really?! He could steal a game or two years ago, but now? Easily? I don’t think so cimosabe

3-0 good one, needed a solid laugh

I got Flyers over the canucks 4 straight.

Flyers are going the same place as Nucks right now...nowhere.

Plus according to EK the Caps are an old aging team and in serious trouble.
- DrunkFan

Good point.

Edmonton for a number of reasons. This coming out flat was a regular problem throughout the season. If they haven't figured it out by now, it's too late. They don't have the depth or experience to overcome their top players not showing up. And it sounds like Tippett still stands by Smith. Smith vs Crawford in playoff games? (insert Gob Bluth) Come on!

Ahh...
4-1 Flyers over Bruins

Hel-lo???

But you’re right about the canucks...
They always blow...

49...about to be 50...years of pure faildom

A few weeks back, when I told you Oilers have a suspect D and don't look like they are built to compete, you ridiculed me.
- PT21

I don't think it's a question of skill, I think it is a question of experience and of having a will to win.

McDavid was okay...he could surely do better but he wasn't the problem. I strongly believe that the bottom 6-9 players feed off of the top players and in CHI you have vets that clearly are not done winning and that attitude is infectious...and the youth are buying in.

On EDM, you have the bottom and younger players watching their leading scorer give what seems to be 40% effort...which is also infectious. The goaltending sucked, but Draisaitl has to move his feet. I just think it's too late to turn this around. I hope I am wrong.


I don't remember who you are...very sorry about your feelings.

You could be right, and you obviously know much more about the team than I do.

But what I noticed, your forwards in the top 2 lines skate with so much abandon towards the net they are often out of position to back check. Just a casual observation.

I was the guy who recognized your avatar as that of a billionaire. But please don't worry about my feelings. You are not the first big shot in a suit who forgot me and you probably won't be the last.

Leafs, they know that #1 overall is in the bag for them!

I think your bias clearly is showing. How many cups has Crawford won ? 2. He never gets the recognition that certain other players get whom have never won 1 or consistently took his team to multiple finals.

Lundquist, Price as examples. Crawford was ou with 2 concussions that's huge for any player but right before the shutdown Crawford found his groove.

And with only 1 games to prepare for this tournament I'd say he did well.

While Edmonton has leon and McDavid that's all great but experience, they don't even come close to matching Chicago's core .

If chicago wins tonight it's over in 3 games period.

Edmonton. Pittsburgh has been there before and won't panic. That said, I think both favorites will still win their series.
- jam10sugar

Absolutely agree.

Hawks caught the Oil flat-footed. Oilers will roll the next 3 games. Betting Oilers score 7 tonight. Oilers win in 4

Pens played well enough to win. PP was a bust. They will fix it and win in 5.

Your trolling is so over the top that it is clear you are not a Flyers fan*. No Flyers fan, given our history of torment and frustration and futility, would bray endlessly like this.

They would also know that we have lost twice to Tampa this year in regulation and those were not flukes (they looked very much the better team), and we are 0-7 against them in the last 3 years. So, just because we have a good thing going now, its like, fingers crossed, nothing more.

*Therefore, I am not worried about Karma and Hockey Gods and so on. That just leaves your mental health.

Don’t demean other Flyer fans.
Don’t.
There’s The Flyers and then there’s everyone else...not here to make friends...talk about craft beer...hear about people’s life problems...boo hoo...it’s a hockey forum.

I would recommend holding your head up about Flyers’ history...long and short term.
Why you would go around popping off a really useless regular season stat about tampa is beyond me?!? What was tampa’s regular season record against columbus last year? How’d that turn out for them???

You’d be hard pressed to find an organization in all of professional sports that has a higher winning percentage...in multiple eras.

You can sit in the backseat along for the ride...that's fine...no problem there..i have waited so long for this...and we are so very close...i wanna ride strapped to the hood of the car travelling a million miles an hour.

In the meantime enjoy my comments...cause they’re funny...and sometimes they even make a hockey point too.

Making fun of canuck fans...leaf fans...and their shtty teams...well that’s an added bonus!!!

Dubas might be in trouble. Tanner's state of mind might be suffering. I'm genuinely concerned.

Just did some number crunching, and anyone posting in here is tied for the lead in Maple Queefs playoff scoring right now.

Habs/Pens was NBC's most watched NHL game of the 2019-2020 season outside of the Winter Classic....

Bolded responses.

1. When the Flyers fan is being a moron, I have zero problems "demeaning" him.
2. Then talk hockey. What you are doing is not talking hockey.
3. At the very least it should give you pause.
4. Ride all you want buddy, sit wherever you fancy suits you. Just save the trash talking for till the car actually arrives at the destination.
