fantastic game. glad they are starting leighton tonight, that last goal of the game by boucher which was game winner was really soft and showed his rustiness. philly also looked a bit tired at the end.

wish carcillo was playing they need him now for two reasons. his rough and tumble style, and he could play right wing on the first line, freeing up the former 50 goal scorer Carter to play the third line. right now with carter playing the right wing they have a fantastic first line but hurts their third line. The first line of gagne-richards-carter is great but playing in chicago, keith and seabrook matched up against them every time and shut them down. hope they can break through this game.

buff should not be as much as a factor as he was against san jose, with pronger and coburn on two seperate defense pairings being able to handle him.

will be a good one either way tonight. go flyers.

Sounds like Carcillo is going to play tonight, and thankfully they're sitting Parent for Bartulus. About an hour 'til faceoff...just got home and will thankfully get to watch this one on my big screen!

The first period was the best period of hockey of the finals so far, IMHO. I agree with Milbury, the call on Betts was crap.

So far, I like Carcillo's addition to the lineup, I will continue to so long as he doesn't do anything stupid. The Hawks seem to be begging the refs for calls, which I like as a Flyers fan as long as the refs call the game and not the whining.

Ugh...what a crappy last 5 minutes of the 2nd period. First a terrible defensive play by Krajicek, then a weak goal given up by Leighton. Bartulis has looked tons better than Parent...playing like a solid 5th defenseman.

The Flyers are still doing a good job against Toews, Kane and Butthead, but they need to do a better job against Hossa...he's been the best Hawk forward (offensively), IMO. And, I have to give the Hawks defensemen credit, they are a solid group.
