It’s a matchup of the two top scoring teams in hockey. It’s
Steve Yzerman vs
Dino Ciccarelli, the two franchise players on each team.
Philly has been a top regular season team for a few years now, but I labeled them a playoff failure last year. So ofcourse, they go about reversing that making me look dumb.
Minnesota has hit rock bottom since their back to back titles in the mid 80’s, and rebounded to get right back here.
Philly has the advantage in goal. Young
Curtis Joseph, who the
Flyers stole from
Edmonton in the offseason, has succeeded in his first real opportunity in the playoffs.
Minnesota has old man
Dan Bouchard, who played more games in the WHA then he has in the NHL! This has the makings of a long series!
