Although the Pens fans behind me today (there were SO few in the building) were really good fans. Knew the game. Called for an Asham suspension before we were finished hyperventilating worrying about Schenn. Gave a puck the guy caught to a little girl Flyer fan (I'm thinking they have PR experience). And left with a couple of minutes left with great instinct for self preservation (although, they were not in colors, so they were discreet to begin with).
Late in the third a Pens fan upstairs left to great chorus of jeers and filmed the whole thing on his way out. I'm appreciating his sense of humor, if not his insanity.
So where to I go for the best part of today? What page? - bodiva88
Unlike the on ice refs ob18 laid the law down early and had control of the board the entire game. You could go to pretty much any page and see how well behaved we were.

I did enjoy the twitterverse during the game, but was thinking I'd like to immerse myself in the madness here for a page or two. That was EXHAUSTING and all I had to do was cheer madly.
I hate the Devils first and for most thanks to the 90's. They were boring back then and there even more boring today without Stevens and Neidermayer. I HATE the Pens but I love to hate the Pens because they are the team to beat year after year. Watching a Pittsburgh Penguins/Philadelphia Flyers game to me is like watching the Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees play one another. I only really started hating the Rangers due to the build up to the Winter Classic. Make no mistake though, I do hate the Rangers. If we have to face them this post season, so be it. Peter Laviolette has pushed the button and the Flyers are playing on another level at this point. The Pens are no walk in the park. If the Flyers can't beat King Hank, they'll be the team to at least score the most goals on him this post season, I'll tell you this much.
I lovehow all of ESPN's hockey "Experts" are most likely going to be wrong with this prediction of who wins. Espn is a laughing stock. - Richieattack18

Watching these games does alter my body chemistry for about 6 hours.

a rangers-flyers series would be played very differently than this one. not saying the flyers would win, just think it would be much tighter all around.

I was in the section over from the guy who filmed the fans cheering him leave.
Didn't exactly understand why he was doing it, but it was kind of humorous.
Have to close this series out Wednesday. - stveshdy
I mentioned to a friend last night that the Pens were the favorite in the game today. If I was more logical and less hopeful I would have made some cash. I don't see how anyone thought they had the best chance to win today.
