- Kimmo Timonen had never been more disappointed as a hockey player, when he discovered he would be out for the playoffs with a blood clot. If he did play, and got hit in the same spot again, his toes could be amputated. It's best he sit this one out.
- While the Flyers' have sustained many injuries this year, none will have more impact than losing 25 minute per game Timmonen. Jaroslav Modry or Ryan Parent will replace him in the lineup.
- Phil Sheridan introduces the Flyers' to new hockey fans, calling Mike Richards the Chase Utley of the Flyers and Braydon Coburn the Flyers' best defensemen since Mark Howe.
- Dave Molinari gives an in depth breakdown of the series. The Pittsburgh writer calls for Penguins in six.
- The Penguins have overcome bankruptcy and four consecutive last place finishes (leading to several number one overall draft picks) and are 4 wins away from the cup. The Penguins are capturing Pittsburgh's under 30 fans and are better role models than the NFL's steelers.
- The Battle of Pennsylvania has a bit of a history.
