The Battle for Pennsylvania


Series Overview

The Philadelphia Flyers and the Pittsburgh Penguins at least have to go to a Game 6 to settle this first-round playoff matchup. The Flyers made the series 3-2 in favor of Pittsburgh Thursday night by shutting out the Penguins 3-0. The next game will be played at Philadelphia on Saturday.

Simon Gagne leads the Flyers in goals with four and Evegni Malkin also has four goals in the series to lead the Penguins.

The Penguins have had the Flyers number as of late and ended the season for the Flyers last season. The Flyers have done a descent job at containing Sidney Crosby but can they keep it that way in Game 6? This series definitely isn't over but the Penguins have to figure out a way to stop giving up all the shots on goal. They got lucky they won Game 4 despite being outshot 46-26.
