UGH
So I’m still down about the way the season ended and I’m sure that you are too. But I am looking forward to the Finals…of course, not as much as if our team was there, but it should be a good series.
OK, so let’s see…we have the entry draft coming up in about a month and training camp starts in oh, about 4 months or so. I’m already having Flyer withdrawal!
But you gotta love the way this team turned things around so quickly, eh?!

YES!!!
Now there is one….they NEED that intensity and desperation in their game EVERY shift, EVERY game from here on out. I don’t know why it took until the fourth game for Stevens to shuffle the lines around, but it seemed to be a HUGE difference as the offense came back to life after the pitiful showing in game 3.
I read in the Daily News that Timonen is hinting that he might be in the lineup Sunday, depending on how his skating and being taken off the blood thinners go, and the swelling around Coburn’s eye may be down enough that he will be in, also. Can you say NICE TIMING as to the extra day off between games 4 & 5?!
LET’S GO FLYERS!!! LET’S GO FLYERS!!!

C'mon!!!
OK, so tonight is game 4 of the Flyers-Pens series…hopefully the Flyers watched the Stars-Red Wings game last night and learn how a team with it’s back against the wall plays! Total desperation, leave it ALL on the ice, and the rest will take care of itself. One shift, one game at a time!
The miracle starts tonight! LET’S GO FLYERS!!!

.
sigh though it still hurts like crazy i guess it’s time 2 move on . that being said here’s who i’m rooting 4 now .
WEST
i really really really strongly dislike both teams 4 obvious reasons but i guess i’ll go with the wings .
it’s the lesser of 2 evils plus i like that old guy chelios and ex-shark stuart . go wings … sorry dallas !
EAST
i would like 2 root 4 the flyers but i hold a “HUGE” grudge towards bobby clarke . WHY ??? i’m a lindros fan nuff said … sorry philly ! that leaves me with the pens who i don’t like or dislike 1 way or the other . so i guess i’m rooting 4 the pens 2 win it all although if gagne returns i’m gonna go with my boy and the flyers .
in the end i just hope 4 some amazing hockey and not 2 many bleep calls . good luck 2 ur team
