Yes, you bring up a valid point. I cant wait to see who they will play next.

most likely New York. I think Montreal's going to meet the pens in the eastern final. That will be a sick match.

i know we are in for a treat!!

Me too! I'm so pumped we swept Ottawa after the kicked us right in the balls last year..

My playoff beard itches already and it's only the first round..

your playoff beard itching

[Marcus ATW]

Is it me?;Or are the playoff games in the east being officiated terribly.

[Bum Mahoney]

west is too, but yes, the pens games seemed to be overly officiated. wild series too.

ace, where in minnesota you at? i'm in eagan.

[IainDaniel]

The officiating is no different then the regular season. Overly officiated sure, but the players are well aware of that.

I am sure as the playoffs go along, the whistles will be kept in the pockets, much like every year.

[Marcus ATW]

I am not hating on the refs in any shape or form. It just seems like they are missing a lot of high sticks.

[Bum Mahoney]

I just wish they'd let them play more is all. Guess that's part of having two refs out there now.

OMG Montreal got raped last night 5-1 at home!

[Marcus ATW]

The Habs are definitely not making it out of the east. Ill even go so far as to say they wont make it out of the second round.

If they keep playing like last night they don't deserve it. Remember though, pens played an injured Ottawa so they had to have 4-0 them. The second round will answer a lot of questions.

Being a die hard Flyers fan, I dispise the Pens and all their awesome talent. I would love for the Flyers to make it out of the Cap series alive and to play the Habs, instead of the Pens. Best case for the Flyers is for the Pens and the Rangers to face off in the second round. And for the Flyers to play the Habs. I rather play a rookie goalie in a series any day.

[Bum Mahoney]

Lol, growing up in the Burgh, I feel the same about the Flyers. I agree that the best thing for Philly would be for Pens to face the Rangers. Well, other than that they should first get past Washington....

[Marcus ATW]

BM your are 100% correct.
The Flyers again had a 2 goal lead and blew it. I guess this game 7 is going to come down to coaching adjustments. I am definitely stressing this one. Alex may be to much for the Flyers to handle tonight. Nevertheless, the winner of the Pens/Rangers is going to win the Eastern Conference.

[AlexParty]

Game 7 between Philly and Rangers is going to be interesting to watch. Glad Montreal blew Boston out in game 7. The second round is going to answer all the questions, we're gonna see who has more depth.

[Bum Mahoney]

I agree with you Marcus on the coaching and Rangers/Pens.
I think I'd rather play the Caps if I were the Pens and count on outscoring them. Would be a fun series. The Rangers make me uneasy. Think I'll pull for the Caps I suppose. Both games tonight...going to be great. Can't wait.

[Marcus ATW]

Must be nice to kick back and not have to worry about your team in a pivotal game 7. FLYERS MUST WIN!!!!!!!!!!!! lol enjoy the games tonight haha

[Bum Mahoney]

Hasn't happened in a while for me!
Guy in the next office is from Atlantic City. Been having some spirited Flyers discussions all day.
Imagine we'll have something to talk about tomorrow. Good luck...

[AlexParty]

Opps I meant Philly and Wash.
