	gotta give props to the Flyers, they beat the kids all game long. I really expected Brashear to stir something up in the 2nd in order to see if it would change the momentum. Semin had some good looks, but everyone else seemed to have fumblitis. I wonder if playing sudden death hockey for the past month has finally caught up with these guys. Looking forward to game 3.

	Boudreau should have benched Mike Green. He played the worst out of a team that couldn't pass the puck to save their lives and thought that they could deke through 3 players at the drop of a hat. Very poor playing by the Caps. We'll see what Bruce does for game 3.

	Well, well, well....where did over8ed's MVP-type play go??? He pulled a magical disappearing act. Caps look like crap. They are done. 14 shots in the last 2 periods when they needed to step it up. Yea looks like a Cups team to me...HAHAHA....Over8ed is not ready for playoff hockey. Now they are done because the momentum not only shifts to Philly, but so do the next two games. Caps will be down 3-1 when they go back to D.C. Way to step it up MVP!!!! Not an MVP performance in my book. HAHAHA...Where are all the high-stepping Caps fans now?? Crying their little eyes out probably. Good shutdown by the Flyers. Doesn't take much though to shut down a one man team though. But props given regardless!

	haha totally agree # 8. Actually i was wondering where all the (as the NBC announcer called them) Crapital fans are. It was only a few days ago that they were claiming Mike Green being the best D in the league. Hmmm nice giveaway to Knuble that turned into a Jeff Carter goal. Lots of turnovers down low too. You know why? Because he is young and he doesnt want to be hit and thats what the Flyers do. They caused so many turnovers the Capitals looked horrible and the Flyers looked great. Was also wondering where the Capital fans are that said our D and Goaltending was bad. Hmm Biron 3 shutouts in his last 4 starts. No goals against today. Only gave up 24 shots. Just goes to show that you need a complete team and not one man to carry your team. Briere and Prospal were there in game one and now Carter and Umberger this game. Its called a team sport not a 1 man show. Flyers play this well they should take it in 5. O yea where are the Caps fans that called for a sweep?? Hmm quiet now....

	Legionx39, Well said! Biron's performance and the Flyer D will shut up these fairweather Cap fans for a while. They have their head between their legs running home to mommy now. There's no way, in my opinion, the Flyers will go back to D.C. with anything less than 2 wins in Philly.

	you 2 guys are amazing! I guess Gretzky, Mario, and even Sid & Evgeni sucked when they went pointless for a game. YOU guys are pathetic with your (ahem) analysis. Ridiculous! You know what? Sometimes a good team effort CAN shut down the best players in the NHL. And the game Green had today is no different from 80% of the games She-girl Gonchar has played in his career. Yeah, I have followed him for a long time, 8-ball probably thought the Pens drafted him.

	The Caps lost their first game in 9 contests. Do you actually think that they will roll over and give Philly the series? I say give because Philly can't win this one on their own. This is just a speed bump. The Flyers are a team full of cheaters and goons. That can't take you any further than the penalty box. Caps need to hit more and remind Umberger of the playoff series where he couldn't remember his name. I guess that's the first thing they teach you in Philly. How to skate across center ice with your head down.

	Yea but Gretzky and Mario had a team behind them. Oveckin doesn't. Capitals didn't win game 1. The Flyers lost it, they completely handed it to you guys. If Flyers play their game it should be over in 5. Why are you talking about Gonchar? He is on the Penguins. Green is young and shaky like most of the Capitals defense. Its defense that wins games as you saw today. Not always offense. Plus please don't try comparing a Veteran like Gonchar to a youngster like Green. There is no comparison.
