Home Ice Matters. A Lot.


After winning two series as an underdog last season, home ice might not seem that important. But against our first round opponent, the Pittsburgh Penguins, it most certainly does.

Compared the all-time home and road records against the Penguins, and you'll see why.

Home (in Philadelphia) : 89W-24L-8T (78.8 win %)

Away (in Pittsburgh) : 43W-46L-22T (43.3 win %)

That's a HUGE 35.5% difference.

So please, Flyers, get a point against the Blueshirts tonight. It's practically Game 1 of the first round.

Home Ice is PARAMOUNT!

Unless you want all kinds of cheap arms...and that fag Crosby running around on the PP acting like he can play with us even strength if only we could stay out of the box...

THERE WILL BE BLOOD! I AM READY TO DRINK SOME OF PITTSBURGH'S MILKSHAKE.

Its a big game for the Flyers. They need at least a tie.
