Ummm you would take out Danny because he is one of the best playoff players in the league…. Unless you for some reason didn’t know that.

Yeah Pitt has more cups than Philly.
But Philly has more head to head wins in playoffs and regular season
They also have much better overall stats and have never almost been sold, yet alone the 3 times that happened to Pitt. I would rather be a fan of a team whose franchise has always been great rather then a franchise whose team just recently started being good again.
I am not a fan of these teams but Philly at least has die hard fans and a lot of them. Pitt is full of bandwagon fans.. And moronic ones at best.

Seriously though, while he is arguably the best, it’s hard to justify trading for a guy that’s missed almost two full seasons and you just don’t know if that next big hit he takes will be his last.

I mean honestly do you think we would prefer to take out a first liner or Danny? i mean he has possibly 16 goals this season? Hes not a huge factor guys. He just needs to learn to skate with his head up. This has happened to him mulitiple times this season.

WHY do Flyers fans believe they are Gods gift to the sport and analysis? Have your dominant numbers guys, but when its all said and done we have more championships. Would you argue the Eagles are better than the Lers based off of their many trips to the NFC championship? you wouldnt. You claim youre better bc you have tradition in your hockey team. Whats wrong with letting us form our own tradition? Its a problem because most of you Filthys are self centered and again think youre Gods gift to hockey. Get over yourselves. Do you believe you deserve everything every year? Sounds like a town full of self entitlement and arrogance.

Looking forward to a great and physical series. Not looking forward to listening to the Orange rant and rave their “dominant tradition” all over this webpage.

The Penguins owned what is now the Los Angeles Kings…. not these Flyers

And to you the Philly fans, same applies. Just enjoy the show, talent and guts displayed by both teams.

I just hope nobody hits him with the intent of hurting him in this series. If they are going to hit him, I would hope that they would do so simply to establish a physical presence on the ice.

GET EM A BODY BAG! YEAAAAAHHHHH!

Even your sports radio broadcasters say it. Whatever Philly……WIN A CUP and then talk.

Franchise Stanley Cups: Penguins 3, Flyers 2.

But, you know, keep all those playoff rounds, since clearly they matter more to the Flyers than the actual trophy.

Harry z isn’t much of a fighter though. I think he was just trying to step up for the team, especially since the playoffs are coming and he hasn’t been playing much lately. I think vitale and ranaldo would be a much more even contest, as far as size and toughness goes.

But since we are on that topic now, Zolnierporn really gave it to Vitale. Haha!

Yeah pens domination of Philly in the playoffs while Philly won more playoff rounds against the pens then vice versa. Learn stats before you talk.

How many goals have you scored in those previous playoff series?

It is a sad representation for the group.

I see it going 7 games and if bryz can steal a game Im going against the grain and picking the flyers.(maybe this is in part to the fact I hope they pens don’t advance)

I would think Pens fans have to be a little bit concerned about facing the Flyers given the overall dominance they’ve displayed in that new building, and to be perfectly honest, it would be nice to hear a bit of realism from them as opposed to the one troll with 50 different usernames.
