True. That's why I gave Montreal a slight edge in goal. I just think Vegas has gotten used to better competition, and should overpower the Habs. But you're right, in a 7-game series anything can happen, and Price could stand on his head and steal it.

I say Vegas in 5. I think they’re a great team.

Oh, so you're one of those losers that still listens to that waste of space that is Philly sports talk radio? That's about all I really need to know about you. Like those stations matter at all. Bunch of ingrates that have the combined IQ's of giraffes. Plenty of people pay attention to the Flyers from October thru March, but real hockey people would NEVER call into those worthless stations that only talk about the Beagles and Sucksers!! Thanks again! Although I will agree(finally with something you say) that it is mostly corporate heads at those games now cause they've priced the real fans out. We had season tickets from 1985-2005 and gave them up after the work stoppage. Haven't been to a game since the 2012 playoffs against the Pens. I still watch on TV, but until they put a team on the ice that exudes at least some excitement we ain't payin that kind of cash.

That experience died with the Spectrum. Hockey just ain't Philly's thing man. Plenty of rabid fans but the vast majority of Flyers fans are casual at best. They've been number four in that city for years. Hockey fans don't call in to WIP because they don't talk about hockey. Why? Because the city doesn't care about it until playoffs close in. In other words Oct to March, Philly doesn't care. Sad reality, but someone such as yourself is A: a dying breed and B: an anomally....until playoffs

Common sense says Vegas, but Montreal could be that Cinderalla story.

Plus I can't bare to see Tampa versus Vegas.....

When someone needs dozens of emojis to make his point, I tend to write him off fairly quickly. The guy sounds like an idiot.

Had season tix since 85, meaning he has to be closing in on mid to late 40s at minimum, yet is trolling a hockey messageboard whining about a single call from 40 years ago.

I don't know ... the Habs did beat the Leafs. Any team that beats the Leafs must be unstoppable.

Wow, you are clueless. The pecking order in Philly is and
always has been Eagles, Flyers, Phillies and Sixers. I'm talkin bout all things being equal(of course there is ebbs and flows based on success at any given time). The reality is that the Phillies and Sixers only draw when they are good and even then sometimes they don't draw. THe Flyers and Eagles draw whether they are good or bad. When the Sixers sucked they were lucky to get 10,000 people in the building and that was with cheaply priced tickets. I could go into attendance figures and local TV ratings over the years not to mention merchandise sales, but why bother when you've made up your mind that Philly talk radio is the end all be all of Philly sports. Again, you are sadly mistaken when you say that they don't talk hockey cause no one cares(the losers on those stations don't care), but I'm done here.

You were dine done before you started. If Pelle knew he had fans like you he probably would have jerked the wheel into that wall himself.

For sure. Montreal got lucky with Tavares getting hurt and Scheifele getting suspended. Montreal isn’t even smart enough to ice their best lineup.

If they were in another division they wouldn’t have made the playoffs. People say the same about us I get it but to me it’s moronic with what we’ve done the last three years in intradvisional play and pre/post covid in the playoffs. You can’t always blame losses on goalies and refs. Lol. With that said there’s also that chance Price plays incredible and they surprise. It’s the playoffs.

Montreal's hopes ride on Price being a madman. If he is Hart trophy Price, then Vegas is in trouble. Honestly, I don't know if this is Price's last hurrah or a hot streak overdue to cool off. Could go either way I guess, but at age 33, he is heading down the wrong end of the aging curve. No matter who wins, I want it to go seven games and multiple overtimes.

Price hasn’t even played spectacular. Toronto choked and Winnipeg was a bad team.

I can’t envision him wearing another team’s shirt and I would imagine any new manager wouldn’t be happy losing Kane but this team looked lost the last 4 or so months. It’s been stated Levy doesn’t want to sell him but he’s asked, and he’s certainly earned the right to play for a Champions League team. It’s hard to believe Poch had us in the final just 3 years ago but we dumped him like yesterday’s trash. Best manager we’ve had.

Right, like I'm really trying to be a troll. You have it all figured out don't ya genius? It's pretty sad that you bring up a tragic accident that took a young promising life. Perhaps it should have been you driving that car into the wall. The world probably would be a better place. Now go away kid cause ya bother me! I wasn't sure who I was going to root for in the upcoming series, but a POS like you makes it easy now for me to root for the Bolts!! All together now.......LET'S Go BOLTS!!!
