Originally Posted By dshyates I'm really looking forward to the game tonight. The Pens, as you know, are my substitute favorite team. So GO PENS!!!. The guy that I watch hockey with here is a Flyers fan. So it will be fun. Brotherdave, did you get to see any of the game last night? As you can tell the Red Wings manhandled the Stars. I am predicting Wings in 5, no more than 6. Pens in 6 against the Flyers. Then it gets ugly.

Originally Posted By dshyates Sorry about your Stars. This is going to be a tough series for you guys. The Wings are sooooo good this year. I really want to hate them, but they are just amazing to watch. Even when they are kicking the crap out of my favotite team. The Pens/Flyers will be a much better match up.
