jagaf22 · 05-05-10, 07:03 PM

Huh

I guess you have not watched any playoff games this year.

Fishhead · 05-05-10, 08:02 PM

The crowd is even more quiet now.........Briuns laying the wood to the Flyers.

keyboarding · 05-05-10, 08:04 PM

Philly fans show their support in parking lots, beating this shit out of the fans of other teams. That's real team spirit.

dwaechte · 05-05-10, 08:08 PM

Umm, wtf? Are you watching the game? Have you watched other games? Philly has been a consistetly loud and supportive crowd.

Salmon Steak · 05-05-10, 08:08 PM

have you seen the florida marlins home games... geez they are not that bad.

minet123 · 05-05-10, 08:09 PM

Fish what happened is when the Flyers first started they where a very reasonable season ticket(Like ALL of the 4 major sports) and the Phillies,Eagles and 76'ers Suked.A large number of season tickets where bought up by the guys who worked in the Oil refining Industry located across the Delaware River in South Jersey and by the guys who worked for Dupont in Northern Delaware.At that time the Spectrum rocked and Fathers would bring their Kids to see Clarkie and Bernie and Schultzy and the rest of The Broad street bullies and watch the city get is first championship in over 35+ years
But as salaries went up from union contracts for these industries these kids got the opportunity to go to some of the best colleges in the nation
And those that came back to the city after school and got the white collar job and moved to the Suburbs still loved their Flyers but something was lost when they moved from the spectrum and now are bringing their children to the game but not allowing them to get as excited as grandpa does/did about the beloved Flyers

Thats because it's a nightmare to get to South Jersey or Western suburbs when one game lets out but Phillies are top of the 9th too

There are no excuses.........flat out embarrassing.

Will this team even sellout game 4?

I agree with you it's my City i would guess less than 15% of the fans at the game live in the city
and yes the Flyers have sold out for the last 40 years

KingKolzig · 05-05-10, 08:41 PM

Brian Boucher should have walked out in the first period

Fishhead I just got back from the game...the crowd, for most of the game, was nuts. Things settled at the end but trust me, it was loud and rowdy.

dmiles1021 · 05-05-10, 09:26 PM

jgray · 05-05-10, 09:40 PM

Vancouver's been pretty quiet tonight too. Was that way before they were down the two goals.

Can hardly blame the fans. The Flyers had lots of opportunities on the power play but hardly touched the puck. They were their own worst enemy and ran the clock out on themselves looking for the perfect setup instead of just throwing it towards the net and crashing the crease. Bobby Boucher let in some bad goals too. I hope people realize now that this guy is a 3rd string goalie for a reason.

MC PICKS · 05-06-10, 02:18 AM

Hey fish what do you expect us to cheer when were getting our ass kicked down 3-0. Funny thing is after half the crowd left at the end, the amount reamaining is still more than the amount of people to show up for marlins games. Quit taking shots at the best sports town and fans on the planet.

Not taking shots, just reporting what I see, and I've watched the vast majority of hockey playoff games this year..........good day.

Chi_archie · 05-06-10, 06:20 AM

haven't watched a philly game at home this year except some pens games. didn't notice anything about the crowds

patswin · 05-06-10, 07:40 AM

not surprised

statnerds · 05-06-10, 07:59 AM

unfair

down 2 with 4 to go with a very banged up team missing their LEADING GOAL SCORER and Gagne as well and two goalies that had save percentages over .900 probably had something to do with it.

it is hard enough to win in the playoffs let alone doing it missing some of your best players. and i hate the fukkin flyers, but i must declare bullshit on OP

beach nut · 05-06-10, 08:04 AM

Any city that has sports fans who inhale nitrous oxide in the parking lot before and after games is ok with me.

thespeculator · 05-06-10, 08:07 AM

couldn't believe the crowd , i though i was watching a maple leafs game

, I was expecting typical rowdy philly crowd , i think the lack energy was felt by the players

Stringer Bell · 05-06-10, 08:10 AM

Leaving the Cards game last night was hell trying to get on 95.

julio_cat · 05-06-10, 08:17 AM

Well, with 1-3 they will be worst

I think its a strech to say Philly the worst home crowd in NHL playoffs - they are usually the typical philly knuckleheads (for better or for worse). I thinkt he lack of energy in the players was felt by the fans, not the other way around. They looked like they were half asleep.
