Round 1: Pittsburgh Penguins (4) vs. Philadelphia Flyers (5)

[mortaldemon1]

Gotta love how much more Penguin's fans are on this page considering how many Flyer comments are being down rated. Fuck you "the Kid...who cries" Crosby fags

[roenic2]

doo doo doo, crosbey sucks.

[CWAttack87]

definately when he leads the league in points in the playoffs and you dont

[roenic2]

thats why richards was ahead of him?

[CWAttack87]

was dumbass

[MaStErKuSHx420x]

every time i insult crosby, i get a reply, HE LEADS THE LEAGUE IN POINTS! when I insult malkin, HE LEADS THE LEAGUE IN POINTS. Would you make up your mind here, luckily when the flyers season is over so is mine. So I don't have to watch crosby crying.

[Isaywhatyouthink]

As much as I hate to admit it, there are quite a few people in Pittsburgh who abandoned the Pens during that period, and they also just so hapen to be the bandwagon fans. But there are SOOOO many die-hard fans in Pittsburgh that go completely unnoticed because the other guys ruined it for us. I've been a Pens fan since I learned to walk, and no "dark period", nor the Flyers, can or will ever change that. You guys may be the rowdiest fans in all of hockey, but you don't scare me.

[redoctober90]

As far as I remember, even during the bad times (2001-2004) there were never less than 10,000 at the arena. And yes, there are tons of bandwagoners, but I can tell you even during those years, I still watched many, many games, both at home and at the Igloo.

And it sounds like all the Flyer fans are making excuses. A playoff win is money in the bank, and money talks, bullshit walks.

[Isaywhatyouthink]

Tell me about it.

I can imagine them making excuses earlier in the series, but there are people still talking trash. They went up 3-nothing in a single period, and then let the Pens score 5 unanswered, on home ice. They shit the bed, end of story.

Try making excuses for that one, seriously.

[zereoue]

I agree with this comment. I remember wearing my Penguin hat and having so many people yell, "why are you wearing that garbage, the team sucks!"

I just never learned the reason why you would abandon your team in any winning or losing period. The Penguins have always been my team, in good times and in bad times.

Then again, until the Flyers actually put a competitive team on the ice during the playoffs, the Penguins will continue to mop the floor with them.

[SlatanicG0D]

fuck you flyers have fun sitting at home! GO PENS

[rangerfreak616]

this is the difference between new york obnoxious and philly obnoxious.... see us new york fans can be dicks but we talk shit about how good our team is wheras philly fans just talk about how much the other team sucks which is to me pathetic... on the other hand its 50 times louder in philly then in pitt.... but the garden owns all baby LETS GO RANGERS

[YourFriendsSister]

This pretty much sums up the difference between Pittsburgh Fans and Philly Fans:

I was present for Game 2 in Pittsburgh. It was a well played game, chippy, but quality hockey with amazing goal tending on both ends. At the end of the game, Biron was awarded third star. I can testify that the Mellon Arena honestly erupted with applause to praise his efforts. When Geno got a star in Philly, the crowd erupted with boos. The difference: Pittsburgh is a HOCKEY town with something called CLASS.

[KZimmz8288]

The only reason Philly isn't smashing Pitt is cuz of your goalie... Other then him your sorry team is getting out played big time... And how can you call Richards a pussy, did u watch the games in Philadelphia??? He was destroying your players... Idiots

[YourFriendsSister]

Exactly! He was DESTROYING the Penguins with his elbows and C.H.E.A.P. shots to Fleury's head!!! Or did you not watch the games in Philadelphia?? I call anyone a pussy who refuses to play fair.

[dabosedabose]

I fucking hate philly fans. All u every say is crosby is a pussy and a crybaby. PLEASE!!!! tell me how crosby is a pussy. I remeber when he tryied to fight ur beloved captain mikerichards and mike didn't wann drop the gloves, that's being a pussy. How can u call him ur captain.

You flyer fans shouldn't even call urself fans, u boo ur own team off the ice when they lost, we lost on or home ice in the stanleycup finals and still applause are team.

[YourFriendsSister]

Well said!! Only fair-weather fans boo their own team off the ice! Did you hear that Philly fans are now saying they are better fans than Pens fans! I find that hilarious!!!

[stvsta1]

LOL Mellon arena was so quiet for game five, Shittsburgh fans cant even talk about being good fans.

You guys dont even make any noise.

[ruff3651]

Your team spent more time heckling Crosby than cheering your own team... How is the golf in Philly?

[YourFriendsSister]

What does being loud have anything to do with being good hockey fans? We sure as hell are loud! Maybe you are just used to the "Crosby Sucks" chants between every whistle. Oh by the way, how are you guys enjoying the off season in Philly? Crosby sure shut up the chants in game 6 didn't he! Vive le Shittsburgh!

[stvsta1]

Crosby didnt shut up anybody and all i am saying is our crowd was loud in the third even after the flyers blew a 3 goal lead, melln arena was silent all game long for game 5.

So dont try and mention Shittsburgh hockey fans in the same breath as Flyer fans.... We are never dead silent for playoff games.

[YourFriendsSister]

The pens were, let's face it, dominated in Game 5. Of course we are going to be silent. We could have started a "Richards Sucks" chant... but wait, that is more Philly's style.

[stvsta1]

Dude u guys were silent when the game started.

[TakingBackRon]

man.. id much rather win, and not be as loud as philthadenlphia scum, than be golfing while the "soft/cry baby/shittburgh" Penguins go on to the second round..

sucks for you guys.. at least chanting "crosby sucks" every 5 minutes had an effect tho.. ;) keep it goin!

let's go Pens!

[stvsta1]

Heres the difference between us and you. When we go golfing early on, we come back the next year. When you go golfing early your arena is empty for ten years and they threaten to move your hockey team.

[TakingBackRon]

yah.... just like two years ago when we lost in the first round to ottawa.. very next year went to the Cup Finals.. then right back this year to kicking philthy out.. AGAIN,

I agree, we had our dark period.. but you'll have that.. it sucks it almost came to selling the team.. but that didnt happen and the Pens are alive and well in Pittsburgh for another 30 years at least babY!!

[stvsta1]

Uh dude we have had our dark period, the early 90's, and 2007 but dont tell me that we stop caring or stop goin to games because we dont. That is the difference between us and you.

[TakingBackRon]

never said you did stop caring, did I?

Pretty sure you are the one who said that WE stopped caring, when there are a lot of devoted pens fans that support our team no matter what.. all I'm saying is chanting "Crosby Sucks" every two minutes doesn't necessarily make you the "better fan" now does it? Actually, if anything that makes you guys ignorant, and completely oblivious fans of hockey. Booing is one thing, but do you HONESTLY believe that Crosby sucks, or is it just jealousy?..

[stvsta1]

Im not even going to address the Crosby sucks thing, but you said that we will have "dark period'' where we stop showing up like you guys do. A ll i said was we already had our dark period many time before and we didnt stop showing up like you guys did.

[TakingBackRon]

Oh no, what I meant by that was that yeah, we were horrible for years! haha. I never meant that I ever stopped caring about my team, or ever stopped supporting them by going to games. I loved being able to go to 30 games a year with no problem!, now if you dont have money, good luck getting a seat right! haha..but It's a fair price to pay to have a potential Cup Winning team..

[stvsta1]

Well, i guess if being last in attendance in 2004 is caring about your team, then their is no doubt that Pens fans are the best fans in the league.

[Heffernan21]

ROFL, Richards not wanting to fight? As I recall (as usual) the refs breaking up any scrum involving Crosby.

[halenrhoads]

so,how is golfing in philly in late april? is mini golf open yet? shine up your putters boys,PHILLY IS GOING DOWN! choking since 1975,i repeat.......CHOKING SINCE 1975! GO PENS!

[Isaywhatyouthink]

One of the best things I've ever read on the internet.

Thank you for that!!

[daburgh1111]

my name is bob its more like 18,000 fans or more u dumb ass

[cyber151]

The Pens vs The Flyers is EXACTLY THIS:

THE New NHL style team: Diving and drawing penalties galore,pure finesse, Penguins.

Vs

The OLD style of hockey: Tough, physical, powerforwards FLYERS.

But as we have already seen teams like that are out of place cuz if you play old school you rot in the box.

OH BTW nice DIVE by Orpik in game 2 in o.t to negate the flyers powerplay.

What a joke, this team still hasnt grown balls and hit puberty yet and the refs are right with them. What a joke.

[SlatanicG0D]

Please

[SlatanicG0D]

RICHARDS TAKES IT IN THE ASS.

[kerpowned]

from pierre mcguire

[mynameisbob3]

so does ur mom

[SlatanicG0D]

My mom hasn't got a thing to do with this you little closet fag! I'm sorry I talked shit about your boyfriend Richards,but man up and leave the moms out of it! If thats the best you got shut your closet door!

[mtlgrad93]

FUCK YOU FLYER PUSSIES, YOU SUCK, JUST BECAUSE YOU WON ONE GAME BITCH, DOESNT MATTER WORTH SHIT!!! tGHE PENS WILL FINAL;IZE IT AT WACHOPVIA CENTER TOMORROW AND KUNITZ WILL GIVE TIMMONEN A WGHEELCHAIR FOR HIS B DAY, FUVCK DA FLYERS!!!

[stewiegriffin111111]

dude u may talk the talk, but can u walk the walk? FUCK U!!!!!!

[mynameisbob3]

shut up bitch we have the most intimidating fans in the nhl and i love it its funny that ur calling us pussies because ur captain is a puusy that C really stands for cunt. timonin got right back up from that hit and the refs dont protect him like they do crosby if that wee crosby who got hit it would have been a penalty . we kicked ur ass in all of those fights yesterday.  giroux put kennedy on his ass with a left cross bitch so suck my dick u penguin pussy

[panterakid400]

i really want philly to win fuck crosby

[SlatanicG0D]

GO PENS GO PENS

[jasca95]

nooo the two teams i like best!!

[twodayslatertdl]

there have been a lot of shaky calls in this series, both ways. so far, i think philadelphia has had the edge intensity wise. i hold that pittsburgh won game 1 on lucky bounces and game 2 on philadelphia's unwillingness to go for the two-goal lead. game 3 is an example of what's to come from a philadelphia team that's finally realized what they need to do to win. pens fans can pimp out crosby and malkin all they want but the flyers fans are easily more passionate and intimidating.

[mylastserenade92]

theres only one thing i can say

LETS GO PENS!

[SlatanicG0D]

go pens go

[CRYSBYsucks]

god forbid your top scorers dont go far in the playoffs. this is FIXED HOCKEY and its BULL SHIT! fuck the nhl and fuck pittsburgh

[ruff3651]

Don't pull a cop out like that, is just embarrassing!

Philly cant stay out of the box and it is fixed? This time of year you have to take it like a man.

[dandandamattressman]

mmhmm

[Flerg3]

Im a flyers fan and I must say they are playing like a bunch of pussies. No heart, no passion, no sense of urgency. Dan Carcillo is a joke as a goon. The entire team should win the lady Bing award. 6 25 goal scorerers and they're playing like shit. Go philly.

[SlatanicG0D]

I hafta agree the Flyers have played like pussies,because they are...GO PENS

[mynameisbob3]

yea the flyers pussies ur tewam is lead by crosby and ur calling the flyers pussies. on of our star players Giroux kicked one of ur enforcers ass Kennedy and ur calling us pussies crosby fights with a visor on what a pussy

[SlatanicG0D]

jealous fucker all you Crosby haters give it up..You all would love to have the best player in hockey on your team...So stop your whinning

[mynameisbob3]

Na no one in philly wants crosby in a flyers jersey ever he is a whining bitch he will get his one day from mike richards

[kerpowned]

first off, kennedy is far from an enforcer. he's a 3rd liner who scores most of the goals on that line. second, philly fans are all bandwagon fans. after game 3 giroux cards were selling for 20 bucks on ebay. they werent on ebay before. the kid has 1 good game and all of a sudden there is a huge demand for his card. as for crosby, who cares, malkin is better than both him and ovechkin

[mynameisbob3]

funny ur calling us bandagon fans. giroux has always been good so shut the fuck up. all those years when ur team sucked u couldnt even sell out a16000 seat stadium andf when we were last in the league we sold out so ur bandwagon pussies like crosby

[SlatanicG0D]

bob,I've been a Pens fan before Crosby was even born so settle down and leave the little boys alone...One more thing learn how to spell they do have school in Philly,haven't they?

[mynameisbob3]

dude its fucking utue no one gives ahit about spelling. pittsburgh smells like shit and its a shitty city. y do u thin philly is the 6th largest city in america and shittsburgh is like 20th. if philly was so bad not as many people would live here retard

[SlatanicG0D]

Hey retard I don't live in Pittsburgh.Let alone Pennsylvania.....Retards don't care about spelling because they do not know how to spell to began with RETARD!Well half your population is on Welfare and depend on shelters to house them..So take your brother of love city and go fuck yourself! Looks like your Flyers need to get their dicks out of their asses or their down 3-1. FAG!

[Isaywhatyouthink]

Yeah bud you can call Pens fans bandwagon pussies all you want.......but our team is still leading. Running your mouth won't change the fact that the Penguins are a better team all around, so you should probably quit while you're ahead. In 1:05, that "pussy" Crosby will have another playoff win against the Flyers under his belt.

So say what you want, the series is as good as over. Eat a cheese steak for me and enjoy the off season, you brotherly love ass clown.

[mynameisbob3]

the only reason u won is cause of fairy.  the penguins r soft

[Isaywhatyouthink]

The Flyers just lost AGAIN to a team whose starting goaltender's nickname is "The Flower", yet the Penguins are the soft ones.....

......riiiiigggghhhhtttt

[mynameisbob3]

yea marc andre fairy. ur team is led by pussy sidney crosby. u see fairys dive when richards tapped his skate accidentaly and the he flopped on the ground. ur toughest guy cant even fight or hit. the smallest guy on our team nailed orpiks ur biggest hitter and ur not soft. richards was lighting ur asses up. u guys are fucking soft

[Isaywhatyouthink]

How does it feel to know that a soft team made your team its bitch tonight? Huh? Does that feel good?

The Penguins don't have to be goons to win hockey games. The Flyers flex muscles, and lose. Taking notes?

[mynameisbob3]

the only reason u won is because of fairy making good saves. we outplayed u. if we were taking notes you would see our players diving on the ground like fairy did when richards tapped is skate accidentaly retard

[Isaywhatyouthink]

Maybe it would win you some games, buddy. Ever think about that?

I'm gonna go ahead and let you in on an NHL best-kept secret: good goalies typically make good saves. Good teams typically play good hockey.

God, I feel like John Madden now.

See what you made me do?

[TakingBackRon]

lmao i love the "fairys dive" comment.. when just last game Carcillo dove and embellished like a mother fucker when scuderi tried to throw a hip check.. (nothing was called and thats fine, i'm not a cryers fan).. 3-1 Pens baby!.

[mynameisbob3]

carcillo didnt dive. look at big fucking orpiks dive in game 2 he can have 14 hits in a game but when 35 year old mike knuble croos cheched him he goes down like a bitch

[TakingBackRon]

oh yeah, cuz i forgot your aloud to just cross check people in the back, in front of the net now... my bad,..

idiot

[mynameisbob3]

u can also just fall down and thats what orpiks dod penguins dont fly they duve flyers fly penguins cry like crosby

[TakingBackRon]

LMFAO hahahaha

penguins/crosby cry?

listen to the CRIERS FAN whiiinnniinngggg about refs non-calls.. then go and say pens and sid CRY!?.. lol okay.. tell hartnell we said have fun golfing in may after tomorrows game

lets go pens!

[mynameisbob3]

um ok u whine about calls to. did u see fairy flop like a fish after richards tapped his skate. i hope crosby drops the gloves against richards tomorow and richards breaks his pussy face. the penguins are soft

[TakingBackRon]

well.. at least the Flyers beat the Penguins in round one, and didn't blow a 3-0 lead at home facing elimina....

oh wait..

AHAHAHHAHAH

LETS GO PENS!

[mynameisbob3]

ur a pussy.  ur fan base is a joke

[TakingBackRon]

just like your team my man..

;)

[mynameisbob3]

really the flyers r pussies when all of ur players do is dive and bitch and get there asses kicked just like that weasel talbot today

[TakingBackRon]

nono.. not pussies.. a JOKE! hahahahah

[ruff3651]

talbots fight turned the game around didn't it?

[YourFriendsSister]

hahah.

yeah pens.

[YourFriendsSister]

Last time I read the NHL rule book, I am pretty sure cross-checking was a PENALTY.

[wiiwillrockuuuu]

Go Flyers!!!!

[molls033192]

oh.

and it prettymuch did go fjhjKJDFGHDFKJHGDFKJSNHGJDGHJF when they met last night. hits out the wazoooo.

fleury - AMAZING toe save last night!

kunitz is a beast. and so is Guerin

[soccerkpr200]

flyers will win because they have leadership. they have a real captain who isn't afraid to play real hockey. and to all you pens fans, the only reason crosby and malkin have so many points is because you don't have anyone else on your team. GO FLYERS!

[molls033192]

yeahh

pens lead 2-0 over the filthadelphia cryers :)

YEAH GENOOOO

[drthmstrbtr]

THE NHL has screwed the FLyers

the league is TOO PUSSY nowadays

[SoundsLikeFun5564]

Flyers fans accusing Pens fans of bandwagon jumping is as autonomic for them as blaming referees.

And class? When did Philly or their fans win anything with class?

Flyer fans post more video of brawls than great plays. Championships aren't won that way anymore. Living in the past is as bad as being a fairweather fan.

I'll admit plenty of Pens fans are what you'd call bandwagon jumpers. But to be fair, their fanbase is very young and many of them were too young even five years ago to BE fans.

[georgemrns08]

i love billy guerin but i hate him in a pittsburgh uni for all the same reasons that i would love to have him on my team.

[SoundsLikeFun5564]

Pens in 3

[ruff3651]

Pens in 3? I like it!!!

[drthmstrbtr]

Example of Pittsburghese intelligence

Uni versity of Pennslyvania OWNS Pitt anyday

morons in the burgh suck it

[jbart321]

Boo hoo, Cryers. Your tears taste wonderful. I can't wait for the Pens to send your sorry team home. Just wonderful the crying from you homers. Great stuff. Fuel for the Pens fans. Oh, and this kid is quite a douche.

[TakingTheFall71]

congrats you're 30 years old and talking shit on youtube. you must have a very fulfilling life. i wouldnt expect anything less from a hick from shittsburgh.

and Cryers? you guys are clever over there. I dont see anyone crying in here. it was only one game. do you i think the pens are gonna win the series? yes. but i dont understand why you guys are talking like the series is over already.

[georgemrns08]

i totally agree with everything you've said, from the hick from shittsburgh, right on down to the dumbest insult i've ever heard regarding the name of a hockey team. Pittsburgh will in all likelyhood eliminate the Flyers again this year... but do it with class Pittsburgh, not to mention that ur fans r a bunch of bandwagon jumpers who were nowhere to be seen whe n the team was battling the Crapitals for the title of worst team in the league a few years ago. Nothing worse than a Pittsburgh fan.

[letsgoflyers48]

CROSBY SWALLOWS

[georgemrns08]

Malkin's cock

[JMcGinley1330]

its music to my ears hearing a roaring "SUCKS!" after Lou Nolan announces Cosby's name in the starting line up. if that was a ring tone i would sooooo buy that!

[Roie9]

Philly in 7.

GO FLYERS

[penbushby]

hey crosby, fuck you?

[XKaitlanxKillerX]

pens 5

[billy44li205]

If the Flyers continue to play like last night, the series will be Pens in 4. But realistically, I say Pens in 7 thanks to home ice.

[beatle11]

7 Games...I'll give it to the pens.

[cm1655]

Pens in 5

[castonguay111]

Thank you for the excellent vid. These two great rivals of Pennsylvania will give a good show. To quote NHLcom : The Penguins are perhaps the most dangerous team on the eve of the series after having made a record of 18-3-4 under the direction of head coach Dan Bylsma. They will try to take advantage of the experience gained a year ago, when they reached the grand finale.

[toewsfan0910]

theyll probly shout FALL FALL FALL FALL!! to marc andre fleury cuz of wat happened last year

[MorganTML]

"nice shot Crosby, does it come in mens?"

[spfan68]

I like Philly alot, but the Penguins are my fav team(tied with the Rangers) and i'd go with the Penguins in 7!

[markmata44]

Go Pens!!! and the pen fans will chant "F*** the Flyers!!! Biron sucks!!!!"

[djwags87]

fuck you crosby

[kevinjj001]

theylle chant

"Crosby is a pussy!"

[londonpythons716]

ya they'll chant it, but he's not lol

[kevinjj001]

agreed

[TakingTheFall71]

great job.

Go Flyers!

[ohkayyfolkss]

they will do the boring crosby sucks chant.

blah blah blah.

great video.

[eric71]

I completely agree with you Steve. Biron plays good, their gonna go deep. I even said it last year, theyre not gonna be first round knock offs

[MattMicko48]

FUCK YOU CROSBY!!!!! instead of let's go flyers

[jematiq]

I am starting to like the flyers after hearing that...not really but ya CROSBY SUCKS....

[tblade03]

HEY, thanks so much for making playoff previews. Its so odd to see you sans your leafs sweater. What are your thoughts on Burke getting ultra aggressive trying to move up in the draft, do you think its worth giving up Schenn to get Tavares?

[Zxceelxuz]

Schenn is the one untouchable player in his attempts to move up the draft.

[davedewolfe1988]

I think philly should chant crozzz-bitchhhhh, crozzzz-bitchhhhh....a bit profane perhaps, but there's been worse

[Roachbike]

FLYERS

[TomTuckersKat]

is getting pelted w/ delicous sandwiches nesicarely(sp) a bad thing?

[ohgottjohn]

I'm not even a pens fan, but where does all the fuzz about Crosby being a crybaby come from? Ever since his rookie year (where he complaiend a few times) I never heard him cry around. On the contrary, he plays quite physical for his size.

I guess people just have to find SOMETHING to hate about him

[Zxceelxuz]

If you watch more closely he does enjoying complaining to the refs and losing his temper.

[BibleTruth9]

Sidney Crysby. Everyone seems to love that one!

[ThisSickCity]

I'd like to see someone go to a game dressed as a giant box of Kleenex. Just cause everyone calls Crosby a crybaby.

I went to a Wheat Kings playoff game Friday, they were up against the Medicine Hat Tigers. A fan dressed up as a Tiger and ran around with a white flag that said "I surrender". It was a good taunt to the players of the Tigers. Wheats went on to win the game and eliminate the Tigers from the playoffs.

[NCPensFan]

just like last year Pens in 5

[RavingRabbidsball]

I wish I could see a game in Pittsburgh.

[PycckuuRocket10]

You cant spell Crosby without:

CRY!

[POW22POW22]

Penguins in 6

[sillygirl1027]

Bahahahahaha!!!! Philly is going down! No matter what LAME signs you hold or stupid chants you cheer,you are done! Welcome to Pittsburgh,bitches! NO ONE can contain Sid and Geno! NO ONE! Esp. not the Philthadelphia Flyers!

[PhillyWings01]

No one can contain them, eh? Funny, I thought the last time we played you guys, they didn't get a single shot on goal.

But yea. N one at all can contain them. lol.

[Zxceelxuz]

Man, our terrible Leafs destroyed the Pens this year. It'll be a good series though.

[chaosof99]

Um, Steve check your stats. Biron had an amazing March (2.31GAA, .934SV%) and combined with April he was still very decent (2.56 GAA, .926).

Over the year he is very close to Fleury as well.

Biron: 2.76, .915

Fleury: 2.67, .912

Anyways, this series is going to be an all-out war.

Biggest heckle will be a lot of diving signs etc. On HFBoards there already are a few, for example a penguin in a Scuba Suit with Crosby's head.

[ScottieBaio]

How can ANYTHING compare to Boston vs. Montreal. Cant imagine any rivalry getting close to that

[CoheedMars90]

In the NHL or in the playoffs?

[ScottieBaio]

I'd go as far to say as in american sports. The history and sheer hatred between fans as well as players it is surreal to be a part of. Went to game 3 last year and I dont see how anything can trump it. Sox/yankees does not even come close to this rivalry.

[CalebBoyington]

Sidney Crybaby lol

[jettskys]

I would just like to say, everyone should join fantasy pools every year. This is my first time and it makes everything so much more intense, espiecally when your favourite teams are out.

[bangbrosdude]

go flyers screw crosby and malkin!

[hendrixman1515]

hm...howd that work out for ya?
