The Flyers run was impressive, what with facing seeds 3, 1, and now 2... Biron's a beast. =)

Answer 5

A class posting from a class Flyer fan. I thought the game would be closer, but there's  no explaning a game of such emotion. I'm glad the Pens didn't have to visit Philly again this season, your guys make it too scary. Great season for the Flyers and many more to come. Pens Vs Flyers is always a great event. Thanx for the thought.

Answer 6

Yes congrats to the Pens. Also congrats to the Flyers on a great season.

Answer 7

Thanks...glad to see some Philly fans still have class...

Answer 8

Thank you Shock, the flyers were a difficult opponent.  I am sure they will be strong next year.

Answer 9

Same here.  Good luck in the Cup Pens.  Also Shock is right about the fans, true Pens fans you know who you are enjoy it and to the bandwagon fans enjoy the ride and hey the Pens are gonna be good for a while so you might as well stick around.  

Flyers had a great season and I know our future looks good, so while I'm disappointed I know there is always next year.

Joe B - LMAO...little black disc!!!

gldmj5 - I don't want to rain on your parade but let them win the Cup first before we start talking dynasty.

Answer 10

Answer 11

Philly gave us a run all year..

but better luck next year, philly =P

Answer 12

haha, thanks for not be bitter, they flyers had a good run though! good luck to them next season

Answer 13

Nope.The NHL and Bettman wanted the Pens in the Finals so they snuck some money down between each period to the refs.I'll post a link to my answer when I write it some place else..

Congrats Pens and real Pens fans.Bandwagon fans..The puck is the little black disc they play with on the ice.

Answer 14

sportsmanship and class all in one post. I LOVE IT, Flyer's did great, great season, great playoff series! I'm not a Pen's fan or really a band wagoner, well maybe, I might start to like them a little more than before, but I know that I'm a hockey fan so I can appreciate this post(question or not!)

Answer 15

so who are you going for to win sc this year?

congrats to both teams

and lol joe, only soccer refs are easily bought off. it's common knowledge.

if it makes you feel any better shawk...i'm a leafs fan. go on it's okay. both pennsylvania hockey teams are great.

Answer 16

Good post and classy.  There may be some bandwagoners, but not as many as you think.  I have been a fan for over 20 years and I will always love my Pens.  Good job, Philly, but you got whooped.

Answer 17

what's the question?

add: seriously man! this isn't a question! you should've added 1 in at the last second!

add: haha I have a thumbs down fan club but seriously guys, there is no question!

Answer 18

Awesome sportsmanship. Good luck next year!

Answer 19

If the Pens can keep Crosby, Malkin, Fleury, and Staal together (and I think they will, goodbye and thank you Hossa), this isn't a one year winning streak. We are witnessing a budding dynasty. Even your guys realize it:

“This series feels a little like the 1992 Eagles’ playoff loss to the Dallas Cowboys. You knew going in that the division rivals were young and talented. It wasn’t until Dallas blew the Eagles away that you realized just how good they’d become and how fast. That Dallas team went on to win three Super Bowls.”

--Phil Sheridan of The Philadelphia Inquirer

New York realized it as well:

“The Rangers have no chance to capture more than perhaps one game against Pittsburgh, which, has, under cover of mid-Pennsylvania darkness, somehow become the Edmonton Oilers of the 1980s.”

--Filip Bondy of he New York Daily News

Anyways, thank you for being a good sport.

Answer 20

Hey, don't be sad!  Be happy that they at least made it this far.  Good Luck to the Flyers next season!

Answer 21

thank you. that is very classy of you.

Answer 22

Aw, why thanks. I wish you and your Flyers luck next season as well. I hope Coburn heals 100% here soon too.

Thank You for not being a rude Flyer fan that says the Penguins only won because of the refs. :)

Answer 23

Shock and Awe I must say I am very impressed with your post. Most fans wouldn't offer congrats to their most hated rivals.

The Flyers made great strides from where they finished last year.

I am a true Pens fan. I have been a die hard Pens fan for 20+years since I was a little kid. I split season tix with a few guys i work with. I never miss a game.

I was very impressed that the Flyers didn't take any cheap shots and our star players once the game was out of reach. I mean they aren't known as the broad street bullies for nothing.

LET GO PENS

Answer 24

Same here philladelphia is my 2nd favourite team and good luck to pittsburgh

Answer 25

Thanks for the congrats and wishes of luck, and thanks for being classy. The series was great and the rivalry, which is stronger than it has been in awhile, made it all the more enjoyable. I look forward to when our teams meet again next season.

Answer 26

We fought hard.

We went from being last place last year, to beating Ovie's team, beating the #1 ranked team, and making it to the Eastern Conference Finals.

I think we did alright :)

Congratulations to the Pens, even if I still hope either Dallas or Detroit kicks your butt and sends you home empty handed :)

GOODLUCK DALLAS/DETROIT!
