flyers got rocked today :(

they looked so off, they were constantly one step behind it seemed. never really even threatened.

Flyers are a talented bunch but are big and slow, even with Gagne and some others. Buffalo is small and fast so Philly has to either beat up on the Sabres or they'll get trampled all over with their speed. I honestly didn't think it would be this close but if Philly can use their strength and their talent they can win this in 7

For tonight, I hope Edmonton finishes off the series with Detroit, and Ducks beat Calgary for a game 7.

Detroit, though their numbers are inflated because of playing in a weak division, are still a good team and tonight isn't gonna be a walk in the park for Edmonton.

well edmonton just got screwed twice. roloson got steamrolled, but no goalie interference call, and then the oilers had a breakaway, but it was called offside, even though detroit had brought the puck back into their own zone.

Officiating has some serious flaws these playoffs. I dunno what the hell is going on. Huet for the habs has been plowed and slashed all series and only last game were there 2 goaltender interference calls out of a possible dozen the previous games. Also A LOT of calls have gone uncalled like that sever high stick to Koivu's eye and one on Markov.

I missed the 2 Detroit goals, but sometimes if an edmonton player is the reason for Roloson being plowed over then its not considered interference as it was their own fault. It has occured a lot this season. I'll rewind it on my DVR and give you my opinion after watching it :)

Sweet deal! It's been way to long for us here in the E-dot and we are finally through! I believe someone said that Detroit was ranked #1 going into the race for the cup? Not sure as I typically watch the playoffs here but regardless....the boys in blue are on their way. Wicked finish to this game/series.

And now I'm off to the bar to celebrate the sweet taste of victory!

Wow! Well, the Dallas/Colorado series pitted my two favourite teams, so good stuff there. So glad that Detroit is out. Them and Toronto are her favourite teams so I can just laugh. These playoffs are so entertaining so far. Canadian teams for the cup!

Koharski, what a moron. The puck was in and out of the net before the interference call on Kipper. What a disgusting call.

NHL is becomming a joke. Thanks for fudging up the playoffs with your excellent officiating.

Whats even worse is that the NHL came out with a statement after the Koivu high stick saying "If we had seen it we would have called it"

There you go, the NHL admitting that its officials suck and can't see blatant penalties and make the proper calls/.

    • Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.
    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.
