That, is karma. Given that the Canadiens hit 100 posts and outshot the Flyers by a 2-1 margin, it seemed like the Flyers were destined to meet the Pens. This is going to be one heck of a physical series.
this series is the I will be watching.

Are you really doubting Crosby's love and heart for the game? I mean, honestly. The guy is targeted game in and out. After getting hit 15 times, you could understand why he'd fall a little easier by the 16th cross check. He isn't made of steel.


I'd take Crosby on my team any day.

Crosby's still really young so I try not to be too hard on him. He's really just a kid still so I give him credit for his achievments so far.

I mean, think back to what you were doing when you were 19 years old.

When I was 19, I wasn't a league MVP and franchise player. I also wasn't the forechecking target of every player in the NHL. It's kinda difficult for me to relate.
