Now that it's official...

I was hoping to kick this all off at the beginning of the week, but of course the Flyers had to go losing to Ottawa on Saturday and everything. But now that the team is officially in the playoffs, it's time to start up Broad Street Hockey's Postseason Preview. For starters, mark your calendars. The playoffs begin a week from tonight on Wednesday the 15th.

Over this next seven days, we'll be setting you up for the playoffs with everything from potential opponent breakdowns to breakdowns of the Flyers own strengths and weaknesses, maybe some Philadelphia playoff history.. anything and everything that has to do with the Flyers and their quest for their first Stanley Cup in 34 years.

It'll debut later on today with the first look at our possible first round opponents.

Throw out your razors, folks. It's playoff time.

New to this site and have been a Flyers fan since 1973

As a former South Jersey resident living for now 20+ years in LA I have remained a loyal Flyers fan. Directv has allowed me to watch every game and am excited for and about this team. I have to admit that the Flyers are the only team I follow from the old days. This team looks at time unbeatable and Biron and Nittymaki look great and not so great almost game to game. I do have a comment about Jeff Carter, great scoring year and the best wrist shot I ever have seen! However, he seems to dog it from time to time. He just doesn’t seem as tough or committed every game. Hartnell, of course Richards give 100% every game but Jeff seems to take off a lot of shifts. Just my opinion. I am optimistic for this playoff run and hope they can go far but as we all know it is going to come down to Marty and Nitti.
