Racquetball rules on Saturday morning, so I'm just getting to my PC now.

Yes, the Flyers needed a shoot-out win over the Rangers in the last game of the season to make the playoffs, and nobody, me included, expected them to go this far. They did handle NJ well during the regular season, so that first round win wasn't entirely unexpected. But being down 3 games to 0 to the Bruins and coming back to tie the series, then being down 3-0 in the first period and scoring the next 4 to win the game and the series? Unbelievable.

Now they have home ice advantage against the # 8 seed who pulled off the biggest upsets over Washington and Pittsburgh (thank you for that!), so both teams are 'fairy tale' fodder for sure. With the Flyers missing their top scorer and # 1 goalie, I'm not sure they have the juice to keep this going, but why should I doubt them.

GO FLYERS
