That was ugly. The second Devils goal was the worst goal I have ever seen. Bryz will be reviled for that for quite a long time. As much as it pains me, credit must be given to the Devils. After game 1 I thought the Flyers had it in the bag, but the Devils took it to another level, and now they are the ones moving on.

Absolute garbage. The flyers just laid down that series. On a positive note when I'm down there next week I won't have to spend every other night in espn zone. Although over the last 10 playoffs my record there is 7-0 including the last 2 against the bruins from 2010. Im hoping the coyotes win the cup even though their fans don't deserve it. I don't think I can stomach Richards and carter skating around holding it. That might scar me for life.

Way to support your team by showing up after they're up 3-1 in the series ... Honestly, I'll ignore anything you contribute to this thread since you're clearly a bandwagon rider.
Where were you during the Panthers series or for the first game?? Come on, bro ... weak!!!

My new motto for this year is just cheer on my team and ignore the other team and their fans for the most part so I have stayed away from this thread even though I started it
All I can is I am proud of my team and the way they played so far in the playoffs!
To Ian and any other Flyer fans on here I am no going to gloat or say bad things about your team! And any Flyer fan who blames Bryz for the loss of the series know nothing about hockey yes he gave up a few bad goals but he also kept your team in a few games longer then they should have. This series came down to a few factors since I still think the teams are pretty evenly matched.
1. Devils simply outworked the Flyers with their forecheck
2. Deboer totally out coached Lavy
3. Devils stayed out of the penalty box
Just wanted to add very classy mov e by Giroux coming down from the press box for the Handshake! Shows a real respect for the game and traditions

Totally agree. I personally can't blame Bryz for the series, I was just noting that the image of that goal is what everyone is going to remember. Throughout the entire season he has been a rollercoaster. Hopefully he can pull himself together and be more consistent. Overall he was much better in this series than the Pens, which speaks volumes to the Devils ability to shut down the Flyers' offense. Marty is still a great goaltender, but he didn't have to "stand on his head" as they say for this series.
I think the biggest thing was your #3... A big reason for the Flyers beating Pitt was due to the Penguins taking dumb penalties. The Devils remained cool, calm, and collected through it all.

I agree with the first two, although I think they had some help from the refs on the third one. You'd have to admit that the two goalie interference calls (especially the one that lead to the no-goal) were pretty weak.
Also last night, even the announcers were noting the numerous times the Devils got away with some pretty blatant holding and interference.
Not that it matters ... the Flyers wouldn't have won this series if the refs wore blindfolds the entire time. They were, back to your points one and two, totally outworked and out-coached.
I really think the long layoff they had between series combined with the intensity of that Pens series made it impossible for them to get up again. I have to say, too, that I really don't understand how the Flyers' six game series ended so much earlier than the Devils seven game series. I think the NHL needs to do a better job with scheduling.

It had to do with their every game nationaly televised approach this year and was complicated by arena availability at least that was the way my season ticket rep explained it to me. The Flyers 1st series was already at game 2 the same night we started our 1st series.
As for the officials in general they are all terrible. There were some pretty bad calls both ways in the series. Iie the delay of game against Kovy that was clearly deflected off Briere and the boarding call against Zubrus. ONe of the Goalie Interference calls was a make up call for the delay game call.

I've all but given up on fair officiating, but yeah, there have been some awful calls/non calls this post season. However I really do think overall the Devils played smarter hockey.

I can blame Bryz. We led 1-0 or 2-0 in each of the last four games. The players had to work for those goals only to have bryz let in softies. He totally deflated this team every game. How can you get up to play against a good dewfensive team only to know that no matter how many you score bryz will even it up. He did it against the pens too but their goalie had problems of his own. I also think our defense was so nervous about letting shots on goal that they played away from their normal style.

Yeah, but the offense was sorely lacking. And the defense had many mental lapses. Despite being clearly outplayed in 3 of the 5 games, none of the games were blowouts. Against the Penguins, the Flyers had 30 goals. Yes Martin Brodeur is a better goalie than Fleury, but he is not the Marty of old. Against the Devils, they scored only 11 goals, and there were times they went eight minutes or more in a period without a shot. If the opposing team is spending that much time in your zone, it's only a matter of time until one sneaks through, unless you are Bernie Parent.

This year has to be a complete nightmare for Flyer fans! It's either the Devils or the Rangers from the East or The Coyotes & Kings from the West. I think the biggest nightmare senario for them would have to be the Kings winning the cup with Carter & Richards!

So the trash talking has begun between the fans of the Rangers and Devils... In today's New York Daily News, a Rangers fan was interviewed about the series... He says Devils fans should not be trash talking because "they Devils haven't won anything in 10 years..." then he proceeds to say he hates the Devils, their fans and calls them trash... So, I guess Rangers fans can trash talk even though they haven't won anyting in 0 years. but Devils fans shouldn't be trash talking because the Devils haven't won the cup in 10??? Makes sense... only if you worship at the Throne of Dolan...

Friday Night was the 2nd greatest moment in my Hockey life that I got to experience live! I jumped so high when Henrique scored that I think I hurt myself! It was truly priceless watching the Ranger Fans leaving the arena depressed! 4 more wins!

P.S. We have a NY Ranger Mike Rupp's kids at our school, and I see Mike picking up on the carpool line yesterday, and I smiled and waved. Not feeling one bit bad that his season is over!! On a side note, He's been really nice with the kids, and actually does playground duty once a week in the morning. Brings team photos for them and signs them. It was exciting for the kids to get involved and watch hockey, even the ones that don't normally.
