Flyers - Hawks

[nokids]

Someone's going to win the cup for the first time in a long time.

[Hacker]

And it should be a great final!! Go Hawks!

[sensfan63]

I think I'll cheer for the Flyers in this one.

I really look forward to seeing Pronger and Byfuglien go at it in front of the net.

Two goalies: Niemi vs. Leighton. LOL. Can anyone remember a final with less-heralded goaltenders?

[Paulio]

Hopefully its a little more entertaining than most of the conference finals.. yikes. But, I don't think it will be. Hawks in 5, maybe 6.

[leftylucas]

I think Leighton is not as solid as his stats show. The Hawks will embarrass him. They are big, fast and never stop coming at you. They have no trouble scoring goals like all of the opponents the Flyers faced in the conference. This Hawks team will be a true test for the FLyers D, if they do win they will certainly be one of the biggest cinderella stories in sports, getting in the playoffs on a shootout and now going to the Stanley Cup.

Hawks in 5. This will not be close.

[rpangman]

Go Hawks.

[Chambokl]

Go Hawks...

[brucestats]

third straight year Hossa will be in the finals, and he has yet to sip out of the cup

Think the Flyers have too much character to lose quickly. Pronger and Richards in particular just hate to lose and are just plain mean to play against

Will stick with the Hossa factor and go with the Flyers.

[minew1545]

Should beat up on young Hawks
Veterens big factor in this series..
Philly in 6..Cinderella goes to ball gets two black eyes and torn dress and still looks like one hot milf

[Timbuktu]

It's too close to call, but my gut is telling me Philly.

[Cruban]

I really look forward to seeing Pronger and Byfuglien go at it in front of the net.

Me too, gonna be the highlight of the series.

[jeffc]

i predict Pronger will goon someone, after he gets frustrated with the Hawks skating circles around him. He won't be able to keep up.

[LobWedge]

I'm torn because I don't really like the Flyers, but I also don't want the Hawks to relinquish the "title" either. (Leafs fans know what I'm talikng about)

Ditto

[nokids]

my final prediction is the the Hawks will win in 5. Which means the Flyers will win in 7 because all my predictions are wrong.

Mate, unfortunately, this is one where mine runs counter to your opinion.
Hossa la Visa for Flyers.
3rd time lucky for Hossa!
Leighton is the weakest link!

[nokids]

what happened to the refs' whistles? did they lose them? there is so much interference, slashing, cross checking, late hits, headshots, it's really nasty out there. i must say that i like this type of hockey, i wish the entire playoffs was officiated like this.

[Baxter]

A few great quotes from above....shall name no one....LOL...have been there myself....

I think Leighton is not as solid as his stats show. The Hawks will embarrass him.....

[minew1545]

Like I called it Philly in 6...
Chicago young team making bad mistakes in game at wrong time..
Momentum has swung to Flyers...frustrated young Hawks
Cinderella is ready to try on that glass slipper

[Arrt]

Philly is going to have to get back in teh game. 3-0 for the hawks so far.

[rpangman]

Go Hawks. You can take Philly.

[Big Johnny69]

This game has by far been the worst reffed game to date. Glad the Hawks aren't giving up or getting down!!

HOSSA la Visa

[byerxa]

Probably one of the more bizarre endings in cup history?

agreed...very weird. Could be the quietest winning goal and celebration ever as well.

[Hacker]

McGuire was between the benchs an he said that when Kane skated by the bench he yelled "That puck is in the net boys we just won the Cup" that is when the bench emptied

[Golfer_Gofer]

Give it up for Philly fans, the only 'boos' were for Bettman!

[rpangman]

Great win for us diehard Hawk fans. I have been rooting for them for 62 years.
