Samifan Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Awesome to see him standing on the boards calling out the Pens. Only thing that would have been better is if he called out Pierre McGuire for being a Crosby jock sniffer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phlyer1 Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 He is a piker when it comes to favoring the Pens compared to Emrick rhymes with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doom88 Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 How weird was it watching Berube holding someone back? Bylsma the ***** wanted no part of Lavy, and had Granato stick up for him.I kind of think Bylsma DID tell the guys to go after someone. Clean hit I think at real speed no replay, but largely unnecessary at that part of the game.Sat might be nasty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samifan Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Emrick sucks and his anit-Flyer is so bias. Whenever the Flyers score a goal he sounds like someone just killed his cat but when another team scores against the Flyers you would think the y just won he friggin cup.

doom88 Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 @doom88: Crosby will be crying about Schenn's crosscheck until then I am sure.He got two very strong and obvious slashes "forgiven" by the refs, so lipstick can shut it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only thing that would have been better is if he called out Pierre McGuire for being a Crosby jock sniffer.I have met Pierre a number of times had he is a great guy. I completely agree he is pro Crosby though and it drives me insane. However honestly I felt he gave the flyers a lot of props in this game.

I think it is terrible for a national prodcast to have that much favoritism. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyercanuck Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 @off_the_post McGuire certainly gives Crosby props, as anyone should. He's a great player. But he also gives the Flyers theirs too. He's still irritating though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell will freeze over before Emrick and Edzo ever say anything positive about the Flyers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyerrod Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Best part of that whole episode was Hartsy doing the Hulk Hogan imitation to the wannabe behind the glass...Berube tried like hell to keep a straight face while that was going on......

He's still irritating though.I agree on the irritating. Normally I can't stand him on air but today I thought he was fine. I wonder if there is any connection with the OB winning?

She was definately a 10 by Pittsburgh standards! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have really gone from somebody who would personally drive him to any team willing to take him off the OB roster to somebody who must be resigned when his contract is up in 2 years (I think) and provided we can afford him with all the contracts coming up then. I digress...the Hogan imitation was priceless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackStraw Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 "Those guys hadn't played in 12 minutes," Laviolette said of the Pens' late lineup. "It was a gutless move by their coach."http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/inqflyersreport/Lavy-Crosby-Bylsma-War-of-words-.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryanc Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 He had Vitale, Englland, and Asham on the ice with 1:15 to go -- Bylsma wanted that to happen and deserves to be fined by the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radoran Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Gutless punk Crosby talking about how if Lavy didn't want Briere to get hit, he shouldn't have put him on the ice.Pittsburgh had last change.Bylsma obviously wanted this to happen, having just had an epic collapse in his own building a week before the playoffs start against his likely first round opponent.And Malkin got his garbage point out of it.Flyers can't give up 47 shots a game in the postseason, but they certainly embarassed Pittsburgh at home today.

Well done, Sidney. Well done.Well, not that well done - you didn't draw the cheap penalty you were looking for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pilldoc Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 I loved every minute of the last few minutes of the game. I agree if Crybaby is gonna slash people and get away with it,then he better have his head on a swivel. The hartsy thing was hilarious.

Phillygrump Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 @BakanekimiwaHe embellished that crosscheck too. He's a crybaby diving piece of garbage.And Penguins fans trying to say he's changed his game. Yeah right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah right.he's doing all the little cheap things that get retaliations. if he wants to keep his head clear, he shouldn't be starting stuff. yet, there he is swatting at giroux with his stick. also, that HAD to be the first time i've ever seen a player go retrieve his helmet in the middle of a play rather than skate on. had to be a first. shows you where his team mentality is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phillygrump Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 @BakanekimiwaHe's the same crybaby wuss he was when he came into the league. Great talent and just an unlikable player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
