The Philadelphia Flyers are on the road to the Stanley Cup, and seem to have a huge possibility of winning it. Although the postseason has just begun, from their outstanding performance, it is likely for the Flyers to make it to the finals. In their series, the Flyers won four to two against the Pittsburgh Penguins allowing them to qualify into the semi-finals.
On April 18, the Flyers encountered the Penguins again, and this time the Penguins brought their A-game. The Penguins delivered great shame to the Flyers after destroying them by scoring ten and allowing the Flyers to score only three. The Flyers had terrible goal tending during this game. Ilya Bryzgalov, allowed four goals out of the 15 shots the Penguins took and the other goalie, Sergei Bobrovsky, allowed five goals on 18 shots. It was obvious that the Flyers were not having the best defensive day.
The Flyers, who have advanced to the semi-finals, played a marvelous game against the Penguins on Sunday, April 22. The Flyers won this game giving them the opportunity to advance to the semi-finals.They won the game against the Penguins gracefully with a score of five to one. The Flyers dominated the Penguins throughout all periods and left them embarrassed in Philadelphia. The match ended with Brayden Schenn, number ten, scoring for the Flyers. The Flyers showed the fans that they were not going to give up without a fight.
The Flyers have an amazing lineup. Every line consists of someone who scored 19 or more goals this season. By having a great offensive team they were able to win three consecutive games in their series. The Flyers ability to draw penalties has also assisted them because the Flyers are known for scoring the most power plays in the season. Even though the Flyers have strengths, they also have weaknesses such as their amount of injuries and issues with goal-tending. The injuries of the Flyers have contributed to their losses. Star players such as Chris Pronger and Andrej Meszaros have been injured, but still the Flyers were able to manage. Their issue with goaltending has also contributed to their losses. Bryzgalov, the goalie of the Flyers, had one of the craziest seasons amongst the other players because of his errors. At times it seemed that Bryzgalov was going to lose his position, but he still was able to become one of the top players.
The Flyers are bound to go to the finals and they are definitely going to put up a great fight against their soon to be known competitor. Philadelphia along with many others will be cheering for the Flyers at the Stanley Cup.
