The fans up here say philly got lucky and got outplayed every game! LOL. I was representing and fighting the good fight up here! Won some side bets. Philly has def stepped up their hockey at the right time, but its going to be hard to contain pittsburgh since they have more scorers than washington or montreal had and 2 mvp guys.
Even if philly managed to get by pittsburgh, they won't get past the western team i don't think unless Biron plays his *** off and the rest of the flyers keep scoring on all 4 lines.

Well, this year Crosby's line is -6 against the Flyers and like 92SilverSHO said, the all four lines for the Flyers are scoring.
And to the Habs fans who say the Flyers got lucky, it's the Habs who got lucky in the first game with the ref's getting the assist on two goals. The one was clearly a high stick, and the other penalty that set up the power play goal was a love tap and a dive on by the Habs player (I forget who it was).
It's going to be tough, but it can be done. Look at the New York Giants this year. They played well enough to get in, then stepped up their game and beat arguable 3 of the 4 best teams this year to win the superbowl (Cowboys, Packers and the Pats), on the road none-the less.
I say Flyers in 7, maybe 6 if they can swing the momentum.

Caps fan so I hate both the Flyers and the Pens. The Flyers have the underdog edge which I like, but they are the Flyers... That being said I think the Pens will take it in 6. They will subsequently lose to Detroit in 7. Pens are stacked with tons of talent right now. They have beefed up for the playoffs which is why I think they'll get past the Flyers. But Detroit has a strong system.
