C.Biscuit97 Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Flyers v. Hawks should get as about as good of rating that the NHL can get. Still don't think it is good for the sport when a team can get into the playoffs by the skin of their teeth and go to the Cup. That said, go Hawks.

Did it hurt the NFL when the Steelers as a #6 seed (out of 6) won the Super Bowl in 2005? How about in 2007 when the wild card Giants beat the greatest regular season team ever in the Super Bowl? Did that hurt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lv-Bills Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 2006. 2007. There were more talented teams than CAR and ANA those years. Kind of like in the NFL when the lowest seeded AFC 2005 Steelers won the Super Bowl? Or in 2007 when the wild card Giants beat the greatest regular season team in NFL history. Wow, eerily similar huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CountDorkula Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 AMEN, my Erie brotha!! Flyers in SIX, BABY! What a great time in sports!

I like you cause your a Bills fan, I like you cause your a Braves fan, aww man your a flyers fan too, well that sucks. They took the whopin stick to the Canadians. Carter and Richards are on fire rigth now, talk about making a statement on the short handed and empty net goals! I just cant believe neither series was even close.

C.Biscuit97 Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 What were they supposed to do? Forfeit? Good for the Flyers but a 7 vs. 8 seed conference final wasn't exactly thrilling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either play them all or do like baseball used to do with only the top two. Make the regular season mean something. Never happen, we live in an instant gratification society.

Cornerville Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Good for the Flyers but a 7 vs. 8 seed conference final wasn't exactly thrilling. Was it thrilling when our 7th seeded Sabres made the Finals in 1999 against an Eastern Conference where the top 3 seeds lost in the 1st round?

I just cant believe neither series was even close. Well, two out of three ain't bad, right? I didn't know a damn thing about Les Canadiens, so I can't profess to have had an opinion as to whether the series would have been close or not, but I'm REALLY hoping that the Flyers show up for the third series in a row and put a severe hurtin' on the 'hawks.
