As opposed to the NO CALLS they frequently made in chicago? And that unsportsmanlike on Carcillo was bogus. Please.


All tied up, I'm hoping another win for the orange and black tonight.

meh - Hawks fans have been whining about calls since the Nashville series.

What Hawks fans need to realize is that Pronger is now a +7 in this series. Big, mean biased refs and Bettman's grand secret squirrel plan to rob Chicago of a cup aside, the Hawks need to be more effective when the big dog is chained in the back yard. Right now, he's making Byfuglien look like a soft little girl.

That and 2 of their 3 goals the other night bounced off Flyers.

Coach Q is going to have to break up the Byfuglien, Kane and Toews line to free one or some of them up from Pronger.

I fondly remember Mario Lemieux driving a stake through the hearts of the Blackhawks in the 1992 cup after the Hawks choked away a 4-1 game one lead. Here's to hoping the Flyers are able to win two more.

One of the best analysis I've read. I will say we need to keep things physical though. Our blue line play got alot better when we got home. I hope that keeps up.

Solid game.

Crappy goaltending.

What was that you were saying about being more effective skip? ;)

I'd say that was pretty effective, "crappy goal tending" aside!

After four games the top line finally decided to push back on Pronger.............

Byfuglien still looks like a musk ox on cowboy boots out there.

Reminds me of an old line about Bob Probert. A commentator was discussing how his team mates called him ther Sheriff. The color guy says - "Why? Because he keeps his team mates safe?"

The play-by-play guy says: "No. Because he skates like he's wearing cowboy boots."

Watching Byfuglien wallow and flounder about the ice, throwing his lumpy misshapen bulk about makes me nostalgic for guys like Tie Domi and Bob Probert who would have beat the tar out of him on the first face off of Game 1 and had him running scared for the rest of the series.

...and yes, the Flyer goaltending sucked big time last night. Boucher's five hole was still injured and Leighton played like he had been free-basing Demerol.

For clarification, I am not a Flyers fan. Eric Lindros used to play for the Flyers, which means that forever they will be stained. Admitting you are a Flyers fan is like admitting you like to sit on other people's thumbs.
