I don't understand why I hear people say Philly can't skate with us.

 

They look like they are skating just fine to me.

 

we haven't really outskated them in any game. they're better and luckier than we are, we are not winning this series.

you could argue that the flyers have outplayed us so far in this series

 

You could. But you'd be wrong.

 

yeah and you also think that was a fine first period. it wasn't terrible or anything, but they outplayed us.

You are reacting to the score alone. Both teams had plenty of quality chances and the shots were even.

Yahoo says Byfuglien got a roughing call at the end of the period.

 

You know McCreary's out there, guys, quit giving him excuses.

 

espn says it too

why, because i disagree with you? no, i'm not. we had like 2-3 small surges and that's it. we controlled the puck more, but got close to nothing going.

So if we controlled the puck more, hit two posts, and had an even number of shots, what besides score did they do to make you think they controlled the period?

we controlled the puck more in the neutral zone, not in their zone. we got almost no sustained pressure on them at all. i'd be willing to bet the puck was in our zone longer than it was in theirs, although neither team had much sustained pressure.

I have a hard time believe that Michael Leighton will keep the Hawks off the board. In fact, it wouldn't surprise me if the Hawks go off on him this period for like 3-4 goals.

Versteeg was awful that period. Too bad Brouwer wasn't able to clear that puck before the first goal.

 

They came with a ton of energy which was to be expected. We're fine.

I'm very upset that I'm at work during this game. I've been putting in shift sub requests for weeks to no avail. Luckily, there's a TV here.
