Again, every hit Pittsburgh does is dirty, but Philly is clean. Every hit, Pittsburgh intends to injure or seeks out XXX player to get him out of the game, but Flyer players don't do anything dirty. Got it.

are you saying that's MY belief? It's not, and I've said that now about 10 times.

Can you imagine how Crosby would get ripped in the hockey press if he did something like that? He's be called a sore loser and "un captain like" and other associated BS.

Crosby would be crucified in the media and by the haters... however Claude is just seen as feisty and a fierce competitor for doing it...

We'd have every Flyers troll over here. Canadian would have a migraine and it would be a poopshow.

So will Game 6 be a 12 or 3 o'clock start?

Crosby is one of the most competitive guys in this sport.

Crosby got ripped for saying he didn't like the Flyers players.


Giroux said today he doesn't like Pittsburgh fans.

Neal with it.

If I was playing on Philly, I wouldn't like Pittsburgh fans either. They're doing their job.

I can't wait to have everyone dissect G's postgame interview for any sign of unsportsmanlike commentary

Flyers haven't scored an even strength goal since game 3, interesting.

Wish the Pens would learn not to take stupid penalties.

But he better not show it, or else it's unsportsmanlike.

But it's acceptable for Giroux to smash and throw his stick.

I just don't get Flyer fans that go to the games.

Your goalies have bad games, and instead of trying to get them back into it, you boo and mock cheer them.

And they wonder why goalies fall apart there.

Big win tonight folks. Its not going to get any easier, but the Pens finally resembled the team we've come to know and love tonight. Flower....just can't say enough about what he did tonight.
- Emperor Filonius

some big, big saves there ... especially in the last 10 minutes. easily the best player on the ice for either team.

12 noon.

A$$es. I hate NBC

there are only 3 games on Sunday. No reason they shouldn't be at 3, 7, and 10

7 periods without a 5-5 goal

actually they fall apart because they have basically sucked for 20plus years.

Since Hextall Phillie has become the anti-goaltending zone.

I miss Checkmanek.

if Giroux continues to do that for the next couple of years than he'll get ripped for it as well.

Crosby gets crucified because he used to do so much of it in his first couple of years. He's matured a lot and isn't nearly as bad as he once was.

Yep, believe me people will start regarding him like Crosby if he becomes a top 3 player in this league.

Thats amazing and yet they still lead the series 3-2. Unreal.

Everyone here knows that if Crosby smashes that stick like that, and THEN says I hate Philly fans, it would be a topic for 3 days......

Oh wait he did ONE of those, and it was.....

If he continues to play that way, I like our chances. Bryz was better tonight, but the Pens let him off the hook a bit early in the 3rd.
