If the Kings win are Phili fans going to be really upset or happy ? (Richards/Carter) - mrpaulish
Bill said it perfectly. I want Ron Hextall and John Stevens to get their names on the Cup. The other guys, I won't be jumping for joy or pissed off, either way
Question to you and Hammarby31 who echoed the same...
Would you rather have a cup that you minimally contributed to winning, or none at all?
A serious question. - dcflyerfan71
Any Cup is better than none at all. Gagne still has had a heck of a career even if he doesn't contribute on the ice to this Kings Cup if they were to win.
I think Brodeur has been leaving some rebounds throughout the playoffs that the Kings can take advantage of in the series. I think it will go 6 or 7 with Kings winning.
Also, wonder if the Flyers are interested in drafting Tomas Hyka. I liked him in the preseason last year. Little small but great skills.
The league had to advance the devils $10 mill to meet payroll this year and look to be on the verge of becoming the Phoenix Coyotoes (financially). The current playoff run is the only thing keeping them afloat financially.
Makes you wonder what the Devils were thinking when they signed Kovalchuk to that lifetime contract or if they could've beaten the Flyers if they weren't living beyond their means salary wise.
Owing $177 million has to be close to a %100 debt load. - Flyers_01
always works out doesn't it...
Small market team needs to win the cup...boom you have the Lightning
A Southern team needs to win...boom the Canes (yes i know you can say the Lightning too)
California hockey needs to win or a West team....boom the Ducks
Just having a little fun with conspiracy theories....

When the Flyers lost to NJ I told my brother that at least it will help the Devils financially to advance in the playoffs. I hate seeing teams leave especially a team with a history like the Devils.

Without Pittsburgh winning the Crosby lottery they would not have survived. I think they drew the ping pong balls behind closed doors.

Crosby and Lemieux saved that franchise, no doubt. I think Mario would've gone bankrupt trying to keep that team in Pittsburgh and still failed if they hadn't gotten Sid.

The NHL has hated the Flyers every since the Broad Street Bullies days and they haven't won a Cup since... I think you're on to something...

The Chicago Blackhawks have discussed Patrick Kane's partying this off-season and GM Stan Bowman said the club was "disappointed" with the situation. "We discussed it with Patrick. We've handled that internally," said Bowman. "We're obviously disappointed with how it played out and Patrick is aware of that fact. At this point, it's a private matter. Out of respect for Patrick, we're not going to comment further. We're going to look forward." The 23-year-old forward attended the annual Mifflin Street Block Party at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where he was photographed in some drunken activities. Thankfully, nothing he did warranted trouble from the police.

let his conditioning slip in Juniors - NickTheKid87
That stuff just kills me. If you've got the talent and skills to have a legitimate shot at a pro career, how in the world do you not do everything else to maximize the opportunity?

Teams should be located in markets that can support them - without taxpayer funds. For whatever reason NJ does not support the Devils, regardless of their success.

it just seems crazy how things work out...
Although I know it's a little dillusional...
The NHL needs the Flyers and needs them to be competitive since they draw. If they win the cup the world will end...
