theres just no way in hell the flyers lose game 4 - Just5
There may be no way in hell, but it could happen here. The current result is hardly reflective of the difference between the clubs. Bylsma will probably turn the whole thing to a "us-against-the-world" spin. Bryz played horribly last game. Fleury could suddenly turn the corner. Malkin is way overdue. They have 3 days to regroup and analyze video. If they play tough and disciplined hockey then it will be a battle. But if they get behind it will not be easy.
I am pretty sure though that there is not going to be any more thuggery from them. I think thats over and we will actually see a disciplined game Wed from both sides.

i think we will be able to tell 5 mins into the game, you could tell in game 3 that the pens were gonna trade chances all game 3mins in
actually submitted "Kim Johnsson Hat-trick" to urban dictionary last week to mess with Joe but i think the editors rejected it

Due to my prior submission of the Lasse Kukkonen hat trick just moments before yours went in.
They apparently felt that one hat trick named after a washed up former Flyers d-man was enough. Sorry, had no idea they would be so closed minded on the subject.
So with Neal, Adams, and Asham likely out for next game do you guys think Crosby and Malkin will be put on a line together? Might be even better for the Flyers if they do that right?

I don't think Bylsma can coach discipline to this group in three days. Flyers backed by their fans are going to eat this team alive in a sweep scenario.

The Flyers will go to work though too. I was worried about Game 3. This thing is over.

I'm cautiously optimistic but I'd love to see the sweep for many reasons not the least of which is that a series that was supposed to be a 7 game war with the winner being dead will have turned into a sweep with us sitting pretty for the next round. Also w need to get out without any injuries.

Fraser gets it. Neal should have never been on the ice to go after Giroux after launching himself at Coots.
Further, I didn't realize Neal wasn't immediately penalized after going after Giroux. That's f'n pathetic.
Penguins Bias. Nah, no evidence of that to be seen.

That's because Fraser is old school where the refs were trained to manage the game. Post lockout, the league schooled the officials how to be penalty callers only, not how to properly control a game.
It's reflective during games like Sundays when they needed to understand the underlying hostilities and act accordingly to cut it off at the knees. Rather, they let the raw emotions run rampant until somebody gets hurt, then huddle up and sort the bodies out afterwards.
