Why does Washington have only a 52% chance of beating Boston in the first round? That graph is stupid.

I understand that we don't score a lot of goals in the playoffs the last few years. Abby wouldn't play on the top 6 of any top level team.

Why can't Datsyuk kill penalties? Would be nice to actually have a shorthanded threat out there for a change. If Abdelkader doesn't play, Mantha should be in. Jurco should be benched for Dano.

74% seems high. Especially since the Flyers have a game in hand. Are we playing a WHL team tomorrow at home?

A first liner is not supposed to bring intangibles. He's supposed to score. And if he's on the first line because we don't have anyone else, then the organization is failing. Ericsson, Holland, Jurco and a first round pick for Subban.

I think the Rangers hate the Flyers and Bruins more than the Red Wings.

That point for Philly was huge.

We're not making the playoffs. Babcock and Blashill screwed us tonight. At least Babcock's team showed up I guess.

They need to get over that. We had some emotional wins against Tampa last year in the playoffs, and didn't show up the following game. Same problem.

Suddenly, the Flyers look like the '87 Flyers. This is hard to watch.

I figured they'd lose tonight, but a performance this bad is exactly why this team has been difficult to root for lately. They don't play hard. In a game of this magnitude no less. If they don't care, why should we?

Flyers are going to win. Damn you Babcock!

http://globalnews.ca/news/2621580/noon-rally-as-edmonton-oilers-say-goodbye-rexall-hello-rogers-place/ Always enjoyed watching games at that stadium, especially those playoff games against Dallas. Kind of reminded me of the Pacific Coliseum where Vancouver used to play. Wish I got to attend a game there as it seemed like a great hockey arena. Of course, that's where those Oiler teams played during their heyday when they scored like 8 goals a game. Also the site of Yzerman's last game.

How would you feel about Cleary making a surprise appearance in game 82?

Go Leafs Go!

Hard to do when the ownership doesn't grow balls and put pressure on the GM. This team's problems start at the top. Very few teams in sports are successful with owners who don't care about the team.

5% after tonight's game. My how the tide turns.

Are you having a hard time letting go of the 2006 playoffs, or did you just post in the wrong thread?

Zetteberg reminds me of a 50 year old Undertaker right now. Time to call it quits.

I have no faith in us beating New York in a 3rd game in 4 nights. We have to hope the Flyers don't get a point tonight and lose in regulation vs either the Pens or Islanders. How big does that game in hand look now? If not for that bulls*** cancelled game, the Flyers would be out of the playoffs as of right now, and we'd be in. Lucky freaking Flyers.

And I'd like to bang three porn stars this weekend.

Three men on the point. Thank you Tatar for being a turd.

And making big promises about how we're not missing the playoffs on his watch. Would be nice if he actually did something about it to back it up. Maybe Howard should have made the statement instead of him.

Maybe they watched the Masters today in their hotel room and suddenly started to miss golf.

I wish Pasternak played for us, just so I could make Dr. Zhivago jokes here all day.
