HOW DO YOU NOT CALL THAT INTERFERENCE???

If the guy is flying down the wing, you can't hook him off the puck. Maybe 20 years ago, but not under the current rules.

Come on.

Ok. Charging. Really? Hitting a guy who has the puck, and is facing you?

Charging.

Fine.

Ok, last post during the game. I need to calm down.

Could this guy get a faster whistle? How many freakin' pucks have to be loose around the Chicago net, and they still stop the play?

Leighton has the puck go flying over his head, and the Hawks get to slash him on the legs as if it's still in play. The puck goes towards Niemi, and they whistle just in case.
 
Are you enjoying your conversation with yourself?:D:D:D:p


Hopefully the Flyers can win this one and make the series more interesting.
 
Holy crap. Watching the Flyers playing 5-9 all night has probably taken years off of my life.

Refs not calling icings, refs not calling trips, hooks, interference. Early whistles, etc.

Man that was stressful.
 
Well, playing dirty is the Flyers style.... might as well be the spotlight operator's style too.:D:D:D

I named my spotlight "GIROUX" :D:cool:It will remain that way though out the playoff;)

And by the way, Great Freak'n Game:)
 
^^^^ Pronger's been the best player on the ice for you guys.

I hope they can tie it up tonight! <--- what the hell is wrong with me, wanting the Flyers to win a game:eek:

I thought I already posted this, but I guess I didn't. Here is a picture from a couple of weeks ago of my son..... guess what his favorite team is going to be?:D

1. Nice pic. Bring him up right.
2. I'm so nervous about the game I could puke.
3. I won't have a conversation with myself during the game this time. I'll keep the browser closed.

See you all in a few hours. Unless I've jumped off a bridge. Then it will be a little longer.

1. Thanks.
2. Don't eat anything that will stain.
3. Conversate away! Nothing better than seeing someone's thoughts while a game is going on.:p

Bridges are for sissies.........:D

Enjoy the game!

Setting him up for disappointment eh? Builds character I 'spose :p

Dude
He's a cutee:) Do a favor, buy him some skates and sign him up for youth hockey. You will thank me;) You never know, you may have the next Chris Pronger on your hands:D:D

Peace

Sounds like your a "Fair Weather" fan to me...:p:p:p

Haha nah; I'm not really a fan of any particular hockey team these days (I'm from Vancouver but haven't really been a fan of the Canucks since familiar faces left, Bure, Mogilny, Lume, McLean etc).

Just think Chicago's really interesting these playoffs; all that young talent has grown so much since last years playoffs.
 
What would it take for Philly to have a decent goalie for a whole season/post season? It's been 20+ years since the Flyers had a goalie worth a darn. And he was the man.

I left the place that I was watching the game, at 2nd intermission. I couldn't stand the general lack of effort, and the goaltending was just sickening. If I'd watched the whole game, my hour long drive home would have been that much angrier.

The Blackhawks played extremely well, and as far as I saw, made no mistakes again.

Maybe Wednesday the Flyers will play better. Probably not.
 
Wow. Pronger was -5 tonight. I didn't think that would happen after games 3 and 4. The 'Hawks started out hot and the Flyers just couldn't cope with it. The game was won in the first period.

The Flyers almost looked drunk out there at times. They're fast, but not *that* fast. Leighton was so deep on the first goal that the people in the front row had a better shot at the save than he did. Pronger looked like he was just going through the motions. Slowly. It's like they went in with absolutely no plan.

Ugh.

Well the Blackhawks have now played 1 good game and I hope they wrap it up in Philly, especially after hearing what some douchebag fans did to my friends who were at the Philly games.

I used to have NFL tickets, not in Philly, and canceled them because of the fans.

I used to have NHL tickets, not in Philly, and canceled them because of the cost, and the fans.

People, not just Philadelphians, do not know how to behave civilly in a crowd any longer. From high school sports, to beer league hockey games, to city league softball, the pros, everything, civility is dead on a large scale.

It sucks that your friends had a bad time. I'd like Philly to get their game 6, especially since we have a forum member working at the games. Game 7 could go either way. But I don't have high hopes. This series has hinged on whether or not Chicago wants it. If they do, they win. If they're indifferent, it gets a little more wide open.

What happened?:confused:

Verbal abuse or physical abuse (or both)?

Congrats to the Blackhawks:) Now,I can finally get a good night sleep:cool:

Surely and Decrepit
Have a safe and happy summer my friends:)

Peace
