Howie58 Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Greetings: The Bruins are favored (-142) with 60% win probability: https://www.dimers.com/news/boston-bruins-vs-philadelphia-flyers-prediction-odds-nhl-picks-3232024 The statistics point to the Bruins advantage on the PP and defense: https://www.nhl.com/gamecenter/bos-vs-phi/2024/03/23/2023021114 This is a squad that has given us fits since coming into the league. They've taken the last seven in the series and we haven't beaten them at home since October, 2021. We've lost both meetings this year: https://www.flyershistory.com/cgi-bin/opponent.cgi?Boston_Bruins The Flyers squad that played against Carolina will compete against the B's. Will that squad show up? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FD19372 Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 The first ten minutes of the game...without a shot. Not good. Shuffle the forward lines, Torts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overall Record: 76 W - 120 L - 21 T ( 623 GF - 729 GA ) That does shock me been only watching since about 1991 but it always seemed Bruins placed more value in having great goaltending and the Flyers always went with older cheaper cast patchwork guys. Look not further than passing on Cujo and going with Beezer always wondered what might have been with those late 90s teams with Cujo instead of Beezer. We'll never know. I remember him putting them out the first round in 98 in the first round if I can trust that brain cell... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samifan Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 (edited) Stuck with the NHL Network feed. E.J. Hradek has zero business being a play by play guy. Broadcast sounds like I am listening via a “silly podcast” Edited March 23 by Samifan 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howie58 Posted March 23 Author Share Posted March 23 This is a chess match. That favors the Flyers. No steamroller so far! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FD19372 Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 (edited) The end of the second period of this game, would be a great time for our PP% clicking at 12%, to wake up and get one. As I speak, TK scores! 1-0, Flyguys! Edited March 23 by FD19372 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gilbert finished G6 with a .962 ... a .962 (!) - and lost the game and the Cup. We know why: Bernie finished with a 1.000. I'll never forget that G6 - Orr and Clarke going at it - because my fav player (besides Clarke) was Rick MacLeish. I thought he was the "coolest" player in the whole NHL ...(I was very concerned with what was "cool" back then ... ) How different the Flyers' history might be if Bernie doesn't absolutely lock it down that day... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would have been different, for sure. They weren't winning Game 7, in Boston Garden. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know...who knows and all that... the betting money would certainly have been with the Bs but that Flyers' squad had goal-scorers, had Bernie plus every one of them were scrappers and fighters. They didn't takeshit from anybody just ask the Red Army a few years later I wonder where the betting money is today going into the 3rd up 1-0... If you get the chance @FD19372 ask for another PP goal please! Edited March 23 by GratefulFlyers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howie58 Posted March 23 Author Share Posted March 23 (edited) Can Errson and Company hang on? Shades of 1974! Yep!!! Edited March 23 by Howie58 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GratefulFlyers Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 (edited) and they do! Tyson Foerster with the GWer what a laser Ulmark didn't stand a chance on that one. 2 goals for TK...one on the PP ... Helluva win for the Flyers - good they hung on in regulation Flyers been looking shaky in OT lately. Finally ended the 0-7 against the Bruins. Great win. edit: rookie goal-scorers this year Bedard leading with 21 - Foerster has 18. Edited March 23 by GratefulFlyers 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
