A defensive struggle it wasn't. Hopefully the Flyers can bounce back Monday.

I'm afraid that may be as close as the Flyers get this series. If Leighton can't stop anything smaller than a bus they are in a world of trouble. Plus don't expect the Hawks to give the puck away all night and sleepwalk through the next 3 games like they did in game one.

I don't know much about this kid Hjalmarrson, but they need to play him less. He seemed to be on the ice every time something bad was happening to the Black Hawks.

Big game tonight. IMHO game is the momentum builder for this series. It looks like Leighton will be between the pipes tonight. Hopefully he'll be back on his game.

Not sure if Bob's referee reference is even worthy of a response, so I won't touch that.

Looking forward to tonight's game to see how the Orange and Black bounce back. They tend to turn in strong performance's for Laviolette the game after they $hit the bed. They need to apply the same pressure they did for the first 55 minutes, and figure out a way to limit the defensive mistakes and goaltending mishaps. Boucher's horrible angle of that last Mickey Mouse goal was upsetting, but at least we know we can skate with them. Those that have already handed the Cup over to the Blackhawks (every analyst and pole-jumper outside of this city) could be in for a BIG surprise in the next few weeks.

Thank you to those before us that were willing to pay the ultimate sacrifice so that this country can enjoy all of life's liberties and freedoms!!!!


oh, and Barry Melrose, ESPN's yuckmouth and modern day foppish dandy, subsists on a strict diet of Canadien Whiskey and birthday wishes of orphans. Known also as "Master of the Dark Arts", he has his own line of denim condoms that he oversees. He, too, is somehow tied in with the BP Global Solutions disgrace. That said, I think it's time to shave that neck blanket of his and beg the TB Lightning to take him back for another 3 week stint as the shot-caller.

Well...Leighton and the Flyers showed up, that's for sure. No disrespect meant, but I really just think it's the Hawk's year....and I can't believe I am actually saying that. If they can win two games without a point from the Toews and Kane, then they really are on a roll.

Good old fashioned hockey and "physicality" last night...Sure it will be ramped up a few more notches tomorrow night too.

Good to see a real hockey game last night wasn't it? I'm not counting the Flyer's out yet.

The funny thing is, that my dad (who forgot more about sports than I'll ever know) thinks that the Flyers haven't been outplayed at all this series! I told him that he needs to learn how to watch a hockey game, because that obviously isn't his strong suit.

Even in a 2 game hole, this city will be electric come tomorrow night. For obvious reasons, this game is make or break. If, and that's a BIG if, we can pull out game 3, it's up in the air. We simply need to be play perfect in order to stand a chance.

I'm happy for you Bob, if the Hawks continue on. Either way, it was a great run. The winner will surely have earned it.
