This is the open game thread.
Behind Enemy Lines: Pension Plan Puppets
There isn't much to say about tonight's game that hasn't been said already. The Flyers need a turn around, now. Play like they played on Wednesday night and heads are gonna roll. There needs to be a solid, 60-minute, 120% effort tonight from everybody.
Period. Kick some Leaf ass.
Between the Pipes: Martin Biron will look to rebound after being pulled Wednesday night in Toronto. Martin Gerber will start for the Leafs after serving a three game suspension for abuse of an official. He hasn't played since March 24th.
Go Flyers, and for the love of God, just win.

its not often I say this but Jones has looked good in the early on. he’s had some nice outlet passes and he scored a big goal

It’s nice seeing them up 2-0 less than eight minutes into the first

Giroux is something special. Nice to see Briere creating offense also

I think they got the message. 3-0, less than 10 minutes in.
Keep it up, Flyers.

To add icing to this already delicious game—the Devils are losing. To Tampa.
Swing by The Flyer Frequent. You have nothing better to do.

The Flyers better not think the game is over cuz they’re up so much.

2 quick goals? What the heck?
Don’t get comfortable, boys.

Has anyone else noticed that the home team has worn white in both games of this home and home? Weird.

it used to be.
teams wore white at home and their darks on the road.
don’t know why they changed.

Still lots of game left—for the Flyers and Devils—fortunately or unfortunately.

We have to hold on.
If we somehow blow this, we will be done. According to Therien, Stevens was not happy at the end of the second. Let’s see how they respond.

Can’t imagine why Stevens was unhappy…/sarcasm

7-3, whew.
Hard to believe that’s Carter’s first hat trick given he’s a 40 goal guy.

HAT TRICK FOR CARTER!
First official! Yeah!

If ever this team could put it all together at once, they might be dangerous. Right now, I can’t figure out who they are.
by doubleh on Apr 3, 2009 9:22 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
Yes, but it took them OT
To beat the Lightning. And they had to score 5 goals to do it—the Devils don’t come by goals easily. They are still in trouble.
I just hope the Flyguys can put together a tighter game tomorrow.
by doubleh on Apr 3, 2009 10:16 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Yes, but...
The Panthers lost in regulation. That means if we win once more, or if the Panthers lose once more, then we clinch a playoff spot. So all is not lost.
It would be nice to get it done tomorrow night against Ottawa, so we can go into our last four games knowing that we’re already in the playoffs.
