The Flyers are in the Stanley Cup - And I'm Going!

The Kings have fans since wayne left?

Also, congrats to Chicago...Just wait till Huet is healthy next year, can you imagine them with an actual goalie in net?

I still check the standings on occasion but the reason I stopped watching Hockey was the strike and no salary cap. Wayne had nothing to do with it. Most fans are fair weather fans and when a team sucks the fans don't come. I know I don't enjoy watching failure personally.

The NHL has a salary cap. and I personally think its a really good system.

Alot of fans are fair-weather, your correct. But thats any sports, but pretty much no one can deny that going to a hockey game is an awesome experience.

aaa - from one goalie to another: please tell me why Leighton wasn't hugging the pipe and why he went down on the shot. If he just hugged the pipe and stood tall on that OT goal, it never goes in from that impossible angle.

2 bad goals in that game for Leighton.

xx more years of Cupless existance for me and the Flyers.

Basic lack of fudementals, over emphasis on a butterfly style, recent retrend of the paddle down which I refuse to follow in so many instances, basic cheating on position assuming too much, too deep in the net to start aka not challenging the shooter. Also something can be said about the recent trend of leg pads due to rules and restrictions because of Gary Bettman.

Basically chalk it up to Philly goaltending has been terrible since Roman Chechmonick, and this year was no exception.

Also, Patrick Kane is a beast. Go to 1:48 of this video:

If your jaw doesn't drop from the angle of the video and what Kane does than...we'll...YOUR CRAZY!

Any other questions?

*SIGH* Why did you make me watch that again?
Thanks for the answer - it also looked like he wouldn't square up to the shooter as if he thought he might get a pass to the front of the net.
And look at you bringing up Chechmonick. Forgot about him.
