Penguins Punish Flyers in Game 3 of 2008 Eastern Conference Finals
Oh. My. Gawd. This is absolutely insane. The Dallas Stars and now the Philadelphia Flyers are each one game away from being swept in the 2008 Western and Eastern Conference Finals, respectively. I cannot even believe this.
Last night, the Pittsburgh Penguins VISITED the Philadelphia Flyers and dominated the game. I was hoping that home ice advantage would work in the Flyers’ favor and make this a more exciting series but, instead, it was almost like it made the Pens stronger. While Pittsburgh scored twice in the first and third (each), Philly scored once, halfway through the opening period and that was it - they were done. What the hell??? Where is their fire? I felt bad for the fans since the “Orange Crush” was in full effect - everyone was wearing team colors and showing support (okay, so they weren’t jerseys but still) but the team failed to show up.
I refuse to believe that Pittsburgh is just that good. Have the Flyers been psyched out? Are they distracted by the US presidential candidates? Are the new jerseys too uncomfortable??? What the heck is wrong with the Flyers (and the Stars for that matter)??? Don’t you think it’s a bit shameful (I don’t care if you are a fan or not!) to make it to the third round and punk out like this?
