Bryz looked shaky at best, finished strong, sure, but having home ice can almost be a disadvantage. I honestly was rooting for Florida for a couple of reasons, because if the Flyers could have gone down there and gotten one of those first two, they steal home ice and come home to put them in a serious hole. The same holds true now for the devils. Brodeur has the ability to steal a game at Wells Fargo and he showed that ability last night. Also, Kovalchuk and Parise are serious. Those are legitimate stars. The Flyers have some question marks at Defense, and IMO it all depends on Bryz. He plays well, sorta back to normal, the Flyers should roll. But let's not forget that these are serious rivals, and know each other well.
With that being said, the Flyers absolutely buried the Favorite for the cup, and have the most impressive PP in the NHL right now. I also am really enjoying watching Giroux become the Elite player in the NHL, and Coots and Schenn are becoming great right before our very eyes. Hopefully JVR can regain some of that 2011 Playoff dominance.
I am excited to see the FLyers and NYR in the EC finals, but I will absolutely be rooting for Ovie and Craps to put out those dreadful blue shirts. Great time of year.
LETS GO FLYERS.
