Friday Night Fights: History Will Be Made
What if...Boston had remembered their series was best of 7 and not best of 5?
Tonight, the Philadelphia Flyers joined the 1942 Toronto Maple Leafs and 1975 New York Islanders as the only teams in NHL history who have won a playoff series after losing the first 3 games. Even more amazing is that the Flyers managed to advance to the Eastern Conference Finals despite using 43 different goalies during the season, including Ray Emery, former Blackhawk draft pick Michael Leighton, Ron Hextall and Jean-Claude Van Damme.
So, as long as history is the them for tonight, let's go back in time to watch the 1974 Flyers engage in a glorious brawl with the Atlanta (now Calgary) Flames.
Skip ahead to the 4:45 mark for the real fireworks.

Most people really like games. We cannot deny the happiness that it brings to us. The games like this are very memorable to everyone so, we must treasure it. Maybe, there is something in it why we remember it. But, whatever it is, the important is, it brings joyfulness within our heart.
