Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Seemed like such a promising time. Real shame how that season ended. Boucher was ridiculously good for Philly in the playoffs, we got absolutely no breaks and no bounces. Lost that series in 5 and it seemed like we outplayed the Flyers for the most part. Actually, I remember that series being a continuation of the "two steps slower Devils" we used to see quite a bit back then come playoff time. Game 2 was the only real exception.

'7' Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Yea I think you may be right. Game 1 was a joke where we only allowed 14 shots but lost anyway, but Philly did hurt us with their speed all series. But I do recall the Devils getting a ton of chances and just getting no breaks ever. Boucher also made some spectacular saves that he had no business making.

Daniel Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 I remember being at that game. Got into it with a really annoying drunk guy. I have no idea if Kovy is still any good. But man, he was a great player for this team... except maybe in analytics bizzaro world where everything matters except scoring goals and winning games.

Broten1 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 In an era where we actually had enough offensive talent to compete consistently in this league.Seems like an eternity ago,but not so long in fact.Much better and simpler times I must say.
