Turnpike Rivalry Renewed in Stanley Cup Playoffs. For the second time in three years, the Flyers are set to play the Devils in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. After falling to the Devils in the 1995 and 2000 Eastern Conference Finals, the Flyers have beaten New Jersey in their last two playoff matchups (2004 and 2010).
What do you need to know about the Devils? Well, Martin Brodeur (above) is still in net and still playing well (he made 43 saves on 45 shots in last night’s Game 7 double-overtime win over Florida). The winningest goaltender of all-time will turn 40 on May 6. As for their season showdowns, the Flyers held a slight edge in the six games the teams played this year, going 3-2-1.
Will the week off hurt the Flyers? Can they handle the Devils? We’ll find out starting at 3pm Sunday, right here on NBC10.
