	Flyers fans talking about bad calls and Sid diving already? The damn series doesn't even start until Friday! That's almost as embarrassing as Ben Eager getting throttled by a 41 year old man and then getting cut from the team...LOL!

	First off...lets lay off the bandwagon effect...yes there are bandwagon fans but there has always been a fan base here in the burgh for the pens I"m sorry that attendance dropped the years when we went from brilliant to being pretty bad...everyones attendance drops when that happens...look at you guys last year no fans than you guys get a couple of players and turn it around and all of a sudden you have such a better fan base than us talk to us after 62 straight sellouts than we will talk. 1.Call me crazy, but I don't recall the Flyers ever having to file for Bankruptcy protection because the fans couldn't support the team. 2. Talk about not knowing anything...perhaps you should check some attendance figures from last year before you make an idiotic post like that. Here are some for you...Last year despite having the worst record in the NHL the Flyers finished 7th in attendance at 19,282 people average attendance per game...or roughly 99 percent out of 100 towards sold out capacity. The Pens fans despite making the playoffs...despite having the best and most exciting player in hockey as you guys have all labeled him finished 18th in attendance last year with an average attendance of 16,424 people and a 96.9 percent out of 100 towards a sell out...Seems like even in our worst year as a franchise our fans were more supportive than Pens fans with the golden boy of hockey and a playoff team.

	2. Don't take too much stock in beating the caps and Canadiens just like we can't take much stock in beating ottawa or even the Rangers all of those teams were not as good as advertised...(caps and canadiens were young and goaltending was a joke for canadiens)...not saying you didn't accomplish anything but if you believe you will have as easy of a time with the pens you are mistakenThe Canadiens are a young team? You must be kidding with this statement right? Guessing you don't really pay much attention to hockey until now that the pens are in the final 4. You might want to go check their roster and the ages of the majority of their players. Kovalev, Koivu, Streit, Bouillion, Brisebois, Begin, Dandenault, Hamrlik, Kostopolous, Markov, Smolinski all 29 and older. Their youth is basically their 2 goalies, the two kostityn brothers, and then 26 year old Mike Komisarek, and 25 year old Plekanec...they are hardly a young team...especially not when you compare them to the Flyers, or the Penguins.

	Philsfan77- I remember going to the vet to watch the phillies when they sucked (which was a lot) and I was 1 of about 200 people at the game! I had a personal conversation with the Pirates 3rd base coach during the freakin' game! You can twist any numbers anyway you want the fact of the matter is that their are hockey fans in both cities that are interested now that didn't give a sh*t during the regular season, you'll find that in any city. But most fans on these boards that chat during and after games are not those people. Use some F'N common sense a$$wipe and talk hockey or smack with your fellow hockey fans instead of pulling a Farmers almanac out of your bung hole and quoting %'s of sellout, what the hell does that even mean? Now let's put this professor to bed and talk some hockey! Go Penguins!

	I don't know if you have been reading the previous series match-ups the Flyers have but it is the same thing everytime.... You may have shut down Ovechkin but wait until you play Montreal. You may have shut down Kovalev and Koivu but wait until you play Malkin and Sidney.... I can't wait...I can't wait until Upshall or Hatcher or Hartnell or Smith, smashes Crosbey's or Malkin's face into the boards... PENS FANS...just look at the EXPERT PICKS.........go Barry MELROSE! This series will be without a doubt the toughest and hardest hitting the Pens will face...let's face it PENS have not been hit yet....the one time they did get hit they lost to NY. Go Flyers....

	Pens win this series. I think that both series going to go six or seven games. and the Red Wings win the cup in no more then six games over the Penguins.

	If you think Ottawa and NY were focused on something besides Sidney and Malkin then you're even more stupid than you sound. I sure hope you guys do a better job of shutting these guys down then you did during the regular season! We dominated you the last few games and you only had to deal with Malkin... who lit you up! Now that you got to deal with us healthy....it WILL be worse. And we can play the physical game with the best of em'......SO BRING IT ON!
