07-08 Philadelphia Flyers Season Thread

[Munson]

Playing the Devils=4 home games for New Jersey=Flyers have 0 chance

[Geowhizzer]

Personally, I don't see much of a chance for the Flyers aganist any of those three.

[QB Eagles]

The Devils can't be seeded higher than #4 and the Flyers can't be seeded higher than #6, so there is no chance of the Flyers playing the Devils in the first round.

The possibilities are the Penguins, the Canadiens, the Caps, and the Canes.

[Rome]

The Flyers owned the Penguins several times this season.  They can't compete with Montreal's speed and the Caps are the hottest team in the NHL right now.  Don't want them even a little.  I think the Canes are done, personally, which is sad only in that FF won't be able to use his season ticket playoff strip.

Who I'd prefer:
1. Pens
2. Devils
3. Habs

The Flyers can hang with the Pens, they've done so all year with the exception of the 7-1 debacle. I want no part of Marty in the playoffs, and as bad as the Flyers have been against the Devils the Habs just completely dominate them and are my pick to go to the Cup.

Romey roots for the Lightning in between sipping mint julips.

Saying the Flyers played better  BECAUSE Briere didn't play is asinine IGY. Just stop.

Downie played great last night, he's so strong on the boards, and like usual, controls himself when he gets to playoff time.  Sami not being on the ice made this team better.

Upshall reminded me of Adam Sandler in Happy Gilmore lastnight

[ice grillin you]

upshall played out of his friggin mind last night...where the hell has that been all year....you could tell after his first shift that he was playing like he didnt wanna be scratched again...he keeps this up he could be an x factor in the playoffs

Saying the Flyers played better  BECAUSE Briere didn't play is asinine IGY. Just stop.

im not saying i wouldnt rather have briere in the lineup over a five minute a game bum like downie but briere is so hideous physically and defensively that he hurts how strong the team plays...hes just not a fox hole type guy...hed never have a game like upshall did last night...at the same time he has to play as hes one of the few players with any offensive skill on the team...i hope im wrong but i expect briere to disappear in the playoffs

There is so much wrong with the post above I really don't know where to begin mocking it.

hockey is a sport for stupid canadians and pasty white people

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

What's the difference?

[ice grillin you]

lets ask cervent

[QB Eagles]

Boston lost, Washington won, and Montreal won. Therefore:

The Penguins need a win tomorrow to get the #1 seed in the conference.

The Canes are done.

If the Flyers win, they get the #6 seed and the Caps. If they lose, they get the #8 seed and the Penguins.

[QB Eagles]

In fact, the Flyers-Penguins game is now the key to the rest of the seedings. The #4/#5 game is going to be Rangers vs. Devils and their game tomorrow will only determine which is #4. Every other seed is affected by the Flyers game.

If the Flyers win:

#1 Montreal vs. #8 Boston
#2 Pittsburgh vs. #7 Ottawa
#3 Washington vs. #6 Philadelphia

If the Flyers lose:

#1 Pittsburgh vs. #8 Philadelphia
#2 Montreal vs. #7 Boston
#3 Washington vs. #6 Ottawa
