Flyers-leafs

philly

Ranger, I think Philly's speed is underrated. Recchi, Gagne, Amonte, Roenick, Kapenaan can all really go. I think Quinn would be wise to try to match Antropov-Ponikarsky-Joe N. against Primeau's line. At least their size might help to neutralize him. The guy who has to pick it up is Mogilny, especially if sundin and Nolan are out.
 
difference in the series will be belfour won't be able to stop what he can't see. those big flyers r gonna crowd the front of the net unlike the sens.
 
Pistol, I agree that Philly is a fast team - nowhere near as fast as Ottawa, however. The Leafs will be able to skate with them, and their forwards will be able to make some plays.
As for line matching, I'd be tempted to agree, but I'm not sure how much line matching he's going to do - he likes to put Sundin's line against the top opponents' lines, but Mats is probably out. We may see Joey Nieuw against Primeau - I suspect you'll see more D matching against the Leclair line, though.
I've stated before that I think Mogilny's career is over, due to his hip not being anywhere near a hundred percent, and I saw nothing in the first round to indicate otherwise. The Leafs will be very undermanned tonight - what else is new.
 
Sundin - doubtful again, I think - game time decision, last I heard.
Nolan - if he is I'll be shocked.
 
If the Leafs can beat Philly then I think they have legitimate shot at the cup. And this comes from a non-expert like myself.
 
GO FLYERS, Johonson is out.Prob a bad spellin.There showing Roenick get hit last yr. That was a bruiser.I beleive Philly tonight 3-1,more rested and no Sundin.Should be a bruising series.Roenick is a very gutsy player.
 
Uhhhh .... what bet, peace4u?
Perhaps you could make that little tidbit clear before talking too much smack. ;)
I expect no more from a Flyers fan, though.
 
Here's a bet P4U...

Leafs win, Flyers fans gotta bathe or shower EVERY day for a year

with soap

and cut your f'ng toe nails

ya animals!

Flyers win, Leafs fans gotta eat steak "blue" at Carmens, Barberians or Tom Jones for a month.

Go Leafs!

Cheesesteaks are very good,not drinking at time,meant no Leaf fans were confident enough to bet on there Leafs.Thaught i would have received a serious reply.Most Leaf fans must have thaught Flyers were the better team.I can understand that.
