2004 NHL ECF - Game 7: Philadelphia @ Tampa Bay

[secretagentsir]

not to be mean but i hate philly so HA FUK U FLYERS

[Philly6457]

I hate when teams with fake fans win a championship. Take a look at tampa now. You cant give away tickets

[Omar1297]

@Philly6457

on average, 90% of the seats there are filled. thats not to bad at all

[1v1HeadQuarters]

@Omar1297 Thats terriblem considering placing a NHL team in any canadian city with sell out every game

[wraydar]

@1v1HeadQuarters

Placing a NHL team in any Canadian city would NOT result in a sell out every game. There's a reason teams were moved from Winnipeg and Quebec and they were mainly financial - those teams did NOT have great attendance.

@Philly6457

I hate when teams exist in cities populated by subhumans. You're from Philly and you're all notoriously fickle fans...The Phillies had HORRIFIC attendance before they had success so give me a break. Take a look at the sixers right now

[TheUltimatePhillyFan]

@wraydar our attendance was great before success you fucking idiot we always had great attendance and about 50% of the stadium was filled at veterans stadium. which held 65,000 people! not bad for a team that put up under .500 records year after year. and the sixers arent really that popular in philadelphia even when they were in the NBA finals in 2001 they werent a town favorite

[mikeg1060]

@Philly6457 I'd say you were talking out your ass except there's a cock stuffed in there.

[mtoor102]

was simone gagne injured during these playoffs???

[AlexIsTheMan72]

@mtoor102 No

[spazzjam669]

@mtoor102 he actually scored the winning goal in game 6 of this series

[stephl349]

The 2004 NHL Playoffs may have been the most dramatic there's ever been.

[Italianpants24]

@stephl349 i think last year has it beat.

[stephl349]

@Italianpants24 You do have a point, but I think the Conference Finals is what gives '04 the edge. Lightning over Flyers in 7, Flames over Sharks in 6. In the '10 Playoffs, neither Conference Final went past 5 games.

[Italianpants24]

@stephl349 that is true, im just a huge flyers fan and i look at what they went through to get to the stanley cup, the shoot out and everything. But the boston flyers series was the most emotional series of hockey i have ever seen in my life that went right down to the last seconds of game seven.

[stephl349]

@Italianpants24 You're right about the Boston-Philly series. It's probably the greatest series I've ever witnessed, one of the best ever played. Only other 3-0 comebacks (of which there are just 2) can brag having as emotional a series.

[xKalamity]

God, imagine if Hartnall was on that team, with Handzus? ALL THE FUCKING HAIR

[Reconstudios1]

i remember this so much i was so happy

[kevin4013]

I think one second to flyers can win this series and can win a stanley cup but tampa was a great team and they are the best team for won the great honor !

[oshtkd]

After reading all these comments, it seems as if flyers fans have the sorest, most enflamed twats of any fans in the NHL.

[Reconstudios1]

@oshtkd don't forget Calgary they still complain

[Flyerfan91]

had Johnson been 100% and rico been healthy who knows. The 04 flyers and the 06 Sabres were two teams doomed by injuries on the blue line

[Crawford1987]

I agree. The Flyers were missing Desjardins (their best Defenseman) and Johnsson, was playing with a fractured wrist. This forced Kapanen to play on the blueline often. The one thing the 2004 Flyers couldn't afford to happen was to suffer major injuries during the playoffs. Tampa took advantage of the Flyers' weakened defense, by scoring 8 times on the PP. Missing Desjardins as the PP quarterback affected the Flyers, as well...as they only scored one time on the powerplay.

[TUdaToken]

@Flyerfan91 and the '09 red wings, we had three of our top defenseman slowed down by injuries and datsyuk was hurt, pretty much zetterberg and franzen were our only healthy forwards during that run and we took our role as the defending champion to the final second of game 7 of the final so BIG WHAT IF you know

[pujols37105]

I guess Philadelpha got revenge on Tampa when the Phillies beat the Rays in the World Series.

[92orangeblack]

and when the bucs beat the eagles in the nfc championship game!!!

[ckendall67]

No, because the Bucs beating the Eagles in the NFC Championship game was in 2003...the year BEFORE the Lightning breat the Flyers in the 2004 Eastern Conference Final. Just so you know:-D;-)

[Reconstudios1]

@pujols37105 we play in a dome you play outside it was cold and rainy rofl

[xcurlyq07x]

@pujols37105 no not really because your city has yes to win a superbowl lol. Tampa beat philly in 02-03 season and then won the superbowl... philly sucks at manly sports

[bobilfabbro]

@pujols37105 i don't give a fuck of baseball :P

[deftonesrule311]

2:13 - 2:16 my fav part of the game....face it flyer fans....those cups u won in the 70s are the last ones your ever gonna see

[Heffernan21]

face it lightning fans the one in 2004 is the only one you'll ever see before they relocate

[ckendall67]

The Lightning won't relocate from FLA, but the Panthers might.

[08WSChamps]

thts what u think, could be this year or next year, face it we're back baby! GO FLYERSSSSSSS

[Crawford1987]

I didn't know you could predict the future...let me know when gas prices will become reasonable again.

[CZak2021]
