December 27, 200520 yr That's BS the goal was awarded to Nieuwy, he never touched it. Mike Van Ryn deserved it. 5 on 3 powerplay for us :thumbup OHHHHHHHHHHH LUKAS just missed that
December 27, 200520 yr Author sh*t, wait to blow it with only 40 seconds left in the 2nd period. Old man Nieuwendyk is hurt.
December 27, 200520 yr Author This game answered the question: How do you get a 5-on-5 in OT? Overtime periods start 4 on 4 even when both teams have players in the penalty box so when they both got out it became 5 on 5 until the next whistle where it went back to 4 on 4.

Overtime periods start 4 on 4 even when both teams have players in the penalty box so when they both got out it became 5 on 5 until the next whistle where it went back to 4 on 4. Well, no, not quite. The OT actually started as a 3-on-3. Then some dude on the Flyers got a penalty in OT, causing some, such as myself, to wonder if they'd go 3-on-2. But, alas, they went 4-on-3. Which caused some, such as myself, to wonder what would happen if play continued long enough for everyone to clear the box. Sure enough, we went gradually from 4-on-3, to 4-on-4, to 5-on-4, and finally, to 5-on-5. When the whistle finally blew it went back to 4's. So, you're almost correct, but OTs apparently do not start as 4-on-4 when both teams have a man in the box. At least not if the penalties were assessed at different times.

December 27, 200520 yr cant believe we lost that game. He had that goalie fooled in the shoot out and the puck seemed to just hop over his stick.
December 28, 200520 yr The Panthers beat writer from the PBP said that the Flyers and Panthers were talkin about Luongo.
