PianT,
Although I bleed Orange for my team, I'm a hockey fan above all else (which is why i'm really concerned that this may be the last NHL hockey I see for a while with the CBA coming up....), which is probably why I was smiling when Mogilny scored that breakaway goal in game 3. Although it was against my team, that was a SWEET goal!
I think that the Flyer's big problem is getting through that damned 2nd period! They actually came out and outplayed the leafs in the 1st, but then let it all go to sh*t in the 2nd. By the end of that period, the Leafs had the momentum and there was no way the orange & black could dig themselves out of that hole.
I was lucky enough last season to take a trip up to Toronto, visit the hockey hall of fame, and catch a Flyers vs. Leafs game in the A.C. Centre. What a great place to see a game! And the fans there are some of the best I've seen!
I think the rest of this serious could get tough and nasty, but it'll be a blast to watch!
