Three hooking calls, each one not even close to a hook. Hossa only had one hand on the stick for crying out loud and didn't even impede movement.
Right? I think McReary talked some sense into that young ref after the first period. McReary!

Anyway, the Flyers have done amazing in the playoffs considering missing 2 All Stars and a great defenseman. Injuries have been a cup curse for them in so many playoff runs. But hey, they've done what no other team has - come from last place and win not 1 round in the playoffs, but 2! Kudos to GM Holmgren and coach Stevens.

Biron had a good run in series 1 & 2, but if he can't step it back up from now on, it doesn't look good. But the Flyers will play hard until the end and never give up.

It is a shame that the Flyers have had to deal with injuries to their top two defenders in such a critical time.
It is really affecting not only their play defensively on the rush, but they are having an extremely hard time getting it out of their own zone not having the quality puck handling defenseman back there.

Is it just me or maybe how it translates on the TV, but all those orange shirts make the stands look empty. I can bet that on the ice and in the stands its a different story, but on TV as the game goes back and forth, the clumps of people not wearing orange stands out and the stands look half full...

Yeah, sort of. But I doubt anyone watching really thinks the seats are bright orange.

i had thought the whacky-over center looked empty coz of the orange, during a game in the MON series.

i also thought the TV picture looked really bleached and wishy washy during PIT's first white out game. they seem to have the levels sorted out now tho!

ROFL. Hard to believe it how much Philly fans hate Crosby.

They hate everyone even Santa Claus (he was booed at a football game). But it doesnt help that Crosby always plays well vs. Philly.

I enjoyed seeing the "8.0" and "8.5" signs after penalties. Quite funny even if there wasn't a dive.
