FLYERS 2005-06 SEASON THREAD!

[The BIGSTUD]

No there isn't a thin line. Saying the series is over is not being realistic. It's just being negative with really no basis for it.

2-1 is not over. I don't care how you slice it. No stats, arguments, or whatever could justify it being over.

and I never said Walker without a doubt would be an Eagle.

Think about the motivation they had heading into this one game. At home, just blown out, called a bunch of idiots, if they don't win this game they're gutless. Buffalo's going to win the series because they're the better team.

[The BIGSTUD]

Buffalo is not the better team, and Buffalo winning this series doesn't mean the series is over right now. Buffalo could win this series, but it's not over. This is going to be a long hard fought series.

Miller fargin blows as a goalie. As long as he is in the net the Flyers got a chance. Buffalo is faster, but the Flyers have a lot more talent.

Buffalo is faster, but the Flyers have a lot more talent.

What's going to ultimately win this series for Buffalo is how much faster their forwards are than our defenseman. Your early argument was that our physical play was going to wear them down, well here's a newsflash for ya, they're outhitting us by a large margin this series.

[The BIGSTUD]

Buffalo dominated up there, we dominated in game 3 down here. If we do the same in game 4 it's all evened out and anyone's series.

If you think Buffalo is going to win the series, fine. But by you saying the series is over is just wrong.

We didn't dominate tonight, did you happen to catch the 3rd period when we were up by 1 and the Sabres were pressing hard?

[The BIGSTUD]

We were just holding the lead. We dominated period 1 and 2, and in period 3 we sat on it, so period 3 is a scratch for that period.

The game was 1-1 in the first, that's hardly dominating. I'll say we 'outplayed' them in the 2nd, however, we didn't by any means 'dominate' them. Dominate is what happened to us the first period on Monday. And you calling the 3rd a scratch is hilarious, the Sabres outplayed us, that much was blatantly obvious.

That's been one of my major problems with this team all year.  They play "not to lose" in the third period, and that will bite them in the rear in the playoffs.

Robert Esche:  22-11, 2.95 GAA, .897 SV%
Antero Niittymaki:  23-15, 2.95 GAA, .895 SV%

Ryan Miller:  30-14, 2.60 GAA, .914 SV%

Yeah, Miller's awful.

flyer homers dont delute yourselves over one game. friday is a total must win.

[ice grillin you]

Buffalo dominated up there, we dominated in game 3 down here

they didnt dominate...they just didnt implode and miller wasnt good

game three was the game they were winning from the start...if they didnt win last night they dont derserve to play at all...

i credit last night to the crowd...buffalo was definitely intimidated for the first half of the game....but once they settled in they took the play to the flyers...i expect them to come out like that from the jump friday and to win the game...then wrap it up in buffalo sunday

can someone put desjardins to sleep....he is a dead horse

I'd like to add Gauthier name to that list.

combined with the fact that Pitkannen is playing timid right now, nothing but blue skies ahead.
