Habs / Flyers: Game 3

Is game 3 the game the Canadiens finally show up?

The game where Carey Price returns to form?

Where the Habs perhaps not fall behind 2-0 on weak goals for the third time?

Will there be fallout from the ‘taunting’, ‘sucker punch’ and John Stevens perpetual whining?

The Canadiens will be trailing in a series for the first time if they don’t come up with a road win tonight.

All the ingredients for this series to finally heat up are there.

To let you know why myself, a Flyers fan, comes here to post, it’s really simple. I go to our opponents’ blogs in every round to let you know why you will lose. I enjoy watching us win and then coming in here to rub it in your french canadian *****-faces. I get off on it if you must know. First round it was the Caps fans. They were funny because they have a really dumb fanbase, most of which did not exist for the better part of this season. You guys have a fanbase, but you are sissies. series goes to 3-1 tonight boys.

See post 190, last scenario. Case and point.

portly, I imagine that the main focus of Penguin fan jabbing would be one Sidney Crosby, no?

You recognize the quote I assume. No harm meant of course.

Technically, posting on here is social, so you can throw away your anti-social misfit theory. I enjoy seeing the other side of these playoff series and what the hell you people are thinking about when you say these games are being called fairly. It’s clear the league is against Philly for the second straight series in a row.

I have never visited the fan site of the opposition either, but to each their own I guess.

Some of them are cool cats.

I think Ryder will play pretty good to tonigth, he’s had a long break and everyone else in this series is tired. Ryder has lots of rage and is ready to go!!! Go Habn Go!!!

I disagree. Many, not all, use the internet because they’re no good in real life. A telltale sign is usually projected anger and insults.

And what did you expect to find in the opinions of fans of the other team? A bias toward their team perhaps? Well, surprise. Just as you are biased toward yours.

Back to my original point. You know that you’ll meet resistance in bringing your insults to another team’s fan site, so you come to troll. Congratulations. That’s good stuff.

With regard to the officiating, a Flyers fan called in on NHL Live today and said that what Flyers fans need to consider is the fact the many of the NHL’s rules were written because of the Flyers. So of course they’re going to get called on them.

Hope to see Ryder shinning again!

Hope to see Koivu, Higgins and Ryder line again!!

Hope to see Ak27, Ak46 and TP14 line rocketing again!!!

Well, then I guess we are seeing the death of old time hockey. The games should still be called the same no matter who is playing.

you think the ;eague is against you? CBC is so antihab it’s unbelievable! try a walk on our side, and see what we have to put up.
But if you think the league is against you, maybe it’s because your players are cheap shot goons. Why do you think all your players were suspended during the season? Is Downie your kind of player? should be in jail!

That I agree with. They should be called the same. And further, I despise most of the new rules. Hockey is a physical game, or at least, it used to be. But now it’s being metrosexualized and morphed into a more suitable form of family entertainment. I suppose that’s the inevitable fate of any successful sport in North America – it has to appeal to casual fans.

Downie is a **** distuber. Always has been. As stated earlier, Downie was the hated Canadian player when Team USA lost to Team Canada in the Vancouver World Juniors. He was an instigator, a diver and a drama queen. He still is.

But Flyers fans, love thy enemy when he joins your team.

Price embellished the **** out of that trip. Plus, any instance of a trip was in retaliation to one of your guys hitting Marty on the the other end just before that play. Then he gets mauled by two frenchies in the corner without throwing a punch and got the roughing and the trip resulting in a two minute 5 on 3. we killed it anyway because we’re a better team.

muller93 : MB is forced to go out and get a big D-man. Missing Emelin for almost half the season is the last thing we needed to hear. Now going out and getting a big D-man is a MUST!!!
muller93 : Now for the Fu**en Bruins who have no business even being in the second round are going to get a nice rest. Yes the same goons who took out one of best D-man for 6 more months. There is NO Fu**en justice. Just venting--Ok i feel better now.
muller93 : So pissed to see the Rangers lay down and play like total crap. How did the Rangers beat the Caps? This team is playing with no heart--a must win and can only muster 23 shots...PATHETIC !!!
muller93 : Senet I did see Galchenyuks goal--Made a great move for the game winner. You can see the kid has so much confidence.
goalie : If Rangers get swept I wonder if Tortorella will get his walking papers? Or Glen Sather? They have tons of 'talent' but zero wins in this series.
goalie : It's really too bad we lost to the Sens as we would have played the Rangers and the way NYR are playing we would have beat them too. If only. If only!
Senet1 : Actually I agree it was a good move for them to play a shorter season and get the experience. He could not have played in the minors this year he would have had to play junior or the NHL. However, he now has a year under him and knows what to expect next year and hopefully take a bigger responsibility on the team. Did you see those two goals in the bronze game? Wow.
muller93 : Good move by the Habs not having Galchenyuk play in the minors. Now Galchenyuk has 1 year in the NHL and playoff experience this is going to pay off big time come next year.
Senet1 : Galchenyuk scores to back to back goals in shoot out to help USA win Bronze metal. I did not see the second goal but the first was a beauty.
Senet1 : So we could pick anywhere from 25th to 23rd depending on who wins these quarter final series.
Senet1 : First, is the 14 teams in the lottery. Then there are 12 teams that did not make the semi finals in the order of the seasonal finish, Then there are the four teams in the semi final the first two eliminated pick in the order of the regular season points total and the last two based on who wins and who loses the cup. So as it stand now if say Detroit beats Chicago then Detroit moves up to pick after us. Boston or NYR will move up and pick after us. LA or San Jose will move up and pick after us
Senet1 : Basically, I was wrong about the draft pick situation. There are three groups of drafting teams within the 30 teams.
Senet1 : seriously ready to challenge for the cup. He will us win games but he will not be the difference between winning the cup and not winning the cup. You pick up players like that once you have the team ready to challenge,.
Senet1 : I am looking at the players to draft and there are a lot of big 6'3-6'5 forwards available ion the draft this year. If we could draft 3-4 big young players in the 2nd and 3rd round why would you want to give that up for a roster player who may have 2-3 years at best. If we are going to build a winner to have to build it with bigger players and there are a lot of good big players available this year. So you sign Ott and he is with us for the short run, but probably not when we are seriously re
Senet1 : Boullion is a great mentor for the young D-men
muller93 : Boullion is one of MBs great additions--Boull ion is a definite Keeper.
muller93 : Getting rid of Kaberle frees up a lot of cash. Boullion is small but is reliable and doesn't back down from anyone.
muller93 : Exactly Goalie any thoughts on a punishing D-man?
goalie : They;re showing determination adn skill vs Ducks and Blackhawks.
goalie : REd Wings could turn out to be the surprise team of this year's playoffs!
goalie : WE need to rid our team of Kaberle and Webber. Step two would be to then move Diaz. If we get that big d-man I believe that would push Boullion to # 7 on the chart. We'd then go with Georges, PK,Markov (to continue mentoring Ememlin) Tinordi as our starting six . THEN I'd be excited about our chances. We could then work on getting bigger forwards.
goalie : I too would gladly give up a 3rd round pick for Ott- the type of player we sadly lack. AND if we could get one more rugged, expeienced defenceman it would help immensely.
muller93 : Senet what you are saying makes sense but if we can get Ott for a 3rd round I'll take that all day.
muller93 : MB should be looking at a big D-man first, even though I like our blue line with the addition of Tinordi. We need that insurance just in case one gets injured. Also I'm a firm believer in starting with the goalie first then-defense-for wards-and we already have good goalie. We have all noticed when we have the lead Price is tough to beat.
Senet1 : So sometimes you have to sacrifice for one year or two to build that team in the draft. then add the finishing touches through FA and trades.
Senet1 : Muller, Detroit is another good example. They have been in the hunt every year with good well balanced teams yet only one or two cups to show for it. However, they have built a team that has a chance every years for the last 10+ years. That is what I think we have a chance to do this year with a good draft. It reminds me of the habs teams of the mid 80 and 90's we built a team then with sold draft picks and won the cup twice during that time period. So sometimes you have to sacrifice a one
muller93 : Very true Senet, you do need luck and we haven't had any luck it seems since the habs moved to the Bell Center. We had an incredible run in 2010 with some crazy goal tending from Halak. With Galchenyuk-Tinor di-Gallagher all in 1 year--not too bad, even with an early exit in the playoffs.
Senet1 : Muller I guess we all have our own ideas, but there has never been too many times that were successful when they traded their draft picks away. We have a chance to build this team so we have a shot at winning the cup over the next 10 years. Even as good as Pittsburgh has been they have only won the cup once since Crosby and Malkin have been with the team. That is because you not only need great players but you need luck to win, but one thing about Pittsburgh they have a chance every year. The
muller93 : Good point on Torres, he might be a liability. Torres has to tone it down a bit, but that's his game-very aggressive.
goalie : Though I don't condone what Raffi Torres did - thos shows you how repeat offenders or near offenders are going to be treated. His hit was NOT illegal BUT what the rap sheet adn reputation Torres has he got severly punished. Lesson to be learned by OTHER players because Torres dopesn't learn fromk his mistakes.
muller93 : Senet normally I would agree with you on not trading draft picks but we are not in a rebuilding stage. Sometimes draft picks can be a roll of the dice and it can take up to 3 years to be NHL ready. We have a good team and I agree with Stuo players like Clowe-Torres-Ott -Scott will make a big difference. Somebody has to protect Gallagher, he can't keep getting hit the way does--we need a tough forward so they think twice before going after Gallagher.
Senet1 : Really a heathly Habs team would probably win more games against the Pens that we did against the Sens. Reason they Pens would not play as physical against us as against the Sens. If we get good goaltending we win at least two games.
zpezada4ok : hello all «link»
stuo11 : hes a tougher big guy too! Just a minor adjustment but will help a bit
