The Flyers shut out the Devils tonight behind the goal tending of Marty Biron.

As a matter of fact, the Devils pulled thier Marty after he gave up two goals in 37 seconds to the Flyers in the third!

In a real up and down month, this is a high point!

Now if the Flyers can just beat up those damn Penns!

You guys got it though - you secured the spot.

Oh yeah? So both the Flyers and the Sixers clinched on the same night. Good day to be a Philly sports fan, I'd wager.

[blueandwhite]

yeah - it was a great win for Philly - but Carolina losing secured the spot for all their friends.

I got a team for the playoffs and I say they will put the duck in the oven!!!
Quack Quack!

[Phils20]

It was a great Philly sports day!

And as far as other teams go, I hope a Canadian team wins it.

That would be great for the sport!!

Wouldn't be great for the city of Philadelphia too? What's Gagne's prognosis?

[Phils20]

Gagne is a no go for the rest of the season. We'll havet to get by without him. He has just started skating with the team, and there has been little talk of him.

How much better would this team be with him at 100%??

That will be a question for next year!

Indeed. It kills me to hear some folks talk. I've heard some opinions that only Montreal and Toronto make money, and folks think the other teams should just go away. BS to that, I say. I didn't even like Quebec leaving to go to Colorado. Or Winnipeg heading to Carolina.

I love Hockey, and it is undeniably Canadian, and the NHL should be taking steps to make sure the rest of the Canadian teams stay right where they are!!

Just a correction. Winnipeg went to Phoenix. Hartford, the beautiful city that it is went to Raleigh. Greensboro first but Raleigh permeanantley.

Duh, that's what I get for trying to remember! Thanks for the refresher!

[Oli Jokinen!]

I don't know how far Philly will make it. They have to face Fluery, Crosby, Malkin, Hossa, Gonchar, Whitney, Orpik, Sykora, Kennedy, and others. Also, with Pittsburgh's back up, Conklin, who is close if not as good as Fluery. Philly has good players, but they will need to try their skates off to win. It's going to be hard. If Pittsburgh plays good defensively, and offensively, Pittsburgh will be a huuuuge opponent.

[Phils20]

True, but at least they are getting the chance!
