Man quit acting like you know something. The pens threw the last game to play ailing Sens. Then they play the Rags in second round. The Flyers just knocked off #3 then #1 both healthy teams except for bad goalie but thats bad gamble at trade deadline.

The walk in the park is over pal. Unless sissy crosby diving antics bring him penalties worthy of an academy award pens are going nowhere.

This should be a great series and i'm expecting a Flyers series win against the young up and coming pens.

The Rags would have been an easier series given Lundqvists choke performance {870save%

}

Malkin better mind his P's and Q's as if he gets chippy i'm affraid this time he;ll be barking up the wrong tree.

No kidding, right? We'll see if Crosby can keep the rest of his Chiclets through this series.

This is going to be a good series. No excuses on either side as at this point, both teams are healthy and have their top guys. The Flyers are missing Gagne, but have been most of the year, it's like he wasn't on the team at all.

Both teams are play really well and this is going to be great.

I can see this series going 7 games since the regular season was practically a split. Each team blew the other out by a 6 goal margin once as well.

I'm surprised they're giving them 4 days off between series. I'd rather have them right back at it tomorrow or Wednesday at the latest.

Well he lost a few in his first ever game against the Flyers, so maybe he'll just lose the replacements.

I'm surprised at the long layoff also, maybe they WANT to end the season in June. I'm not looking for any blowouts in the series, both teams have been pretty solid defensively. It will definitely be hard hitting, and alot of smack talk will be flying. Don't know if Max Talbot will be back from the foot injury for the Pens, but I know that Rob Scuderi could sure use the extra days to let his foot heal.

I'm sure that the city mayors will probably be wagering some kind of food in regards to the series. Any flyer fan out there want to make a Signature wager. IE. If the Pens win, you have to wear a Penguins signature for the Stanley cup finals that I design(For the Pens, not anything derogatory towards the Flyers), and if the Flyers win, then you can do the same to me.

I just don't see the Flyers winning this one.
Penguins in 6.

That's ok, none of the experts have really seen the Flyers winning anything this year. I'm just happy they're this far. For me, the way this team was last year, I'll be honest, everything passed 82 games is bonus time.

Special teams win this one. While both teams have a strong powerplay, the Pens are much better on the PK.

Don't look for Philly to have it as easy in front of Fleury as they did in front of Price.

Penguins in 5.
