I dont know, in my opinion the Flyers have dominated all 4 games. How the series is tied 2-2 is amazing. I dont see any way Philly doesnt win it all.
Sucks tonights game is at the same time as the NBA finals

I disagree, the flyers have been playing very very sloppy hockey. They tend to get disorganized and lose focus by the start of the third and don't bring the aggression back up to the level it needs to be. The past two games have been better because they've actually been posting by the net and getting bodies in front of the crease to pick up rebounds and to re-direct, but if they want a chance in tonight's game they have to attack hard on the power plays and not go soft in the third. I see this as being a very physical game tonight, it has been all series, but it may get unbelievably vicious tonight as both teams fight the W.
As much as I would have loved to see Philly sweep the hawks, this is how stanley cup hockey should play out. Down to the wire for both teams each game. I find it hard to sit anywhere but the edge of my couch during games lol.

Im not really big into hockey, so ill watch it if no other sports are on
Philly's goalie has been insane the last 2 games as well. I would bet 100$ that Flyers win the Cup
Did you know, that in this postseason, Philly is 9-0 after Game 3

Yah leighton has been our rock this entire playoff series. I honestly couldn't tell you who could win because I think both teams have an even chance at grabbing the cup. I think it's going to be a case of who goes soft first, if Philly keeps the puck in the hawks zone as much as possible we have a damn good chance of pulling it off and bringing stanley home.

I'm planning on playing golf this afternoon, our tee time is 4 pm, by the time I get back in from the course it will be around 8 so I'll have missed the first period. I could not play golf, but, that's not an option I wish to pursue

Golf FTW
Im just saying, why not just turn the game on Live after the 1st period. You wouldnt have missed much
Idk, I guess if I cared about either team or hockey I might care, but it seems like the 2nd and 3rd periods are all that matter

Actually the first period sets the pace for the game. IMO it's the most important because if you hold at least a two goal lead going into the second you can play some solid D and give your team a rest to hit hard in the third.
I just want to watch from the first because I love hockey and don't want to miss a second of play.

Understandable, it's not my game. I am just a fan of competition
Im a soccer player at heart, so a 2 goal lead after 1 period is huge. Hockey is definitely an interesting sport.
IMO, its all about getting the puck in front of the net and confusing the goalie.

yah, indeed, shots on net with bodies on the crease will lead to some good goals. However Niemy and Leighton have been doing an amazing job in shutting down the crease and angles to the net.
A two goal lead in hockey is probably one of the worst to have. Unlike soccer a two goal lead can disappear in a matter of seconds, there have been two games this series in which two goals were scored within 30 seconds of each other.
Funny enough I loved playing soccer, but watching it leaves me wanting to take a nap. I will, however, be tuning in for some world cup action soon

Im the opposite, i love playing soccer, but i love watching it too
hockey on the other hand, I only watch when there is nothing else on. I will go to a game live, but on TV it seems to suck
I cant wait for the world cup to start, 1 more week

Hockey is definitely much better in person then on tv. I wholeheartedly agree with that one. Nothing beats sitting center ice three rows back from the boards. God I miss those seats.
Looks like my golfing buddy bitched out on me, can't trust an alcoholic I guess lol. So I'll be catching the first period live now.
