Konnan511 1,736 Report post Posted April 23, 2011 Then again it's been a trend in the past few years, that you don't necessarily need a superstar goalie. Leighton vs. Niemi last year in the playoffs pretty much sums it up. No superstar goalie in today's hockey is so good that he can take his team alone to the Cup. Even if Sabres win these series, I still think Flyers would've had much realistic chance to actually go deep and win the Cup than them. I never said the team with the best goaltender, i said goaltending. Bryz is a better goaltender, nut we had the better goaltending that series by far.

HankthaTank 1,100 Report post Posted April 23, 2011 Uh oh. The anointed "great playoff team" looks to be folding too. I recall the Flyers and Nucks being the guaranteed Finals teams, hmmm..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't get the collapse by Philly. I understand it from the Nucks since their division was so garbage, but the Flyers were in a tough division and still came away with a great record albeit stumbling worse than a night with Paris Hilton and Lindsey Lohan going into the playoffs.

It goes to show you how valuable Chris Pronger is to them. Pronger is a force defensively and offensively. Also shows how Ryan Miller is valuable to Buffalo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MGreenberg 105 Report post Posted April 23, 2011 (edited) I never understood why the Flyers sent the goalie who played great to help get them to the Cup Finals last year down to the AHL. I mean sure if Halak doesn't take down Washington and Pittsburgh they might not have made it last year but if the Flyers do actually beat Buffalo in the next two games with Leighton I don't think I would be that surprised.
