Wow, what a game today in the Winter Classic?

This game was crazy. And who else thinks that the Flyers suck? All that help from the refs and they still can't win

Oh and how bout Mike Rupp? He had a great game

Update:

Yeah, but they were just trying to hand it to the Flyers at the end, and I'm just pissed that it had to go that way

    It was a good game. The Rangers winning made it all the more better. I can't stand any team from Philadelphia, but the Flyers are actually a good team. Philadelphia fans need to get an attitude adjustment.

    The game highlighted a lot of the things that are horrible about the NHL now. Every game is decided in large part by the refs. They put their whistles away for the entire game calling only 2 PPs. With less than 10 minutes left the team that is trailing starts getting a bunch of calls; a horrible PP where they should have been shorthanded for hitting a player into the net, the PP should have been ended with the hook on Callahan, but they call coincidental incorrectly, and a penalty shot when they couldn't see the player covering the puck with his had.

    They let interference go all game with both teams running the trap and interfering with forecheckers and people chasing the puck. Hagelin should have had a breakaway, but they let it go when the D didn't know where the puck was and interfered with him all the way up the ice. They took away a possible goal on the Callahan at the end too--they didn't show a good replay to see if he would have gotten to the puck. They even let the hit by Dubinsky go where he hit the player about 5 feet from the boards before they got to the puck which is supposed to be a penalty now too.

    The penalty shot was exciting, and ending the game on a PP is exciting, but the NHL is becoming like the NBA where calls are happening at the end of every game to determine the outcome.

    Exciting game. That was a great comeback, down 2-0 to win 3-2.

    And I can't stand the Flyers, or Phillies, or Eagles, or any team from Philadelphia or New England.

    Yes I thought it was a great game. When we were down 1-0 then 2-0, I was pissed though. Lundqvist deserved the win imo. And Mike Rupp, wow what a way to step up and have a big game on a huge stage. Him doing the jagr salute after his first goal was epic

    For cereal, I got so excited I threw my shirt on the floor! (I was doing laundry). The Flyers have always sucked in my mind, nothing new. Yup, Rupp twas a genius.

    iciness classic palms down. With the iciness classic you get the actual experience for hockey because all of it started. Out doorways interior the chilly. The allstar sport has the merely right gamers interior the league enjoying in it, yet its no longer actual hockey there is not any checking and the goalies merely get lite up.

    Matt, there were plays that shoul've been called on the Rangers too, but weren't. It was a good game. I'd say it was a battle of the goalies. But Brobovsky let that one weak goal through. It killed me. haha

    Come on, Man. Represent the Rangers in a good way. Not like this.

    If you're talking about when one of the Rangers blocked the puck at the last second, he swiped it away with his hand, you can't do that.

    Yeah. I hate the Flyers, especially for what happened in the 2010 playoffs. Luckily we got revenge the following year.

    The Flyers haven't won anything of importance since 1975.

    And Rupper is the man.
