I never said that.

The Flyers play the game hard, but fair. The aggro' I was referring to is simply that of the vocal nature from the hard to please Philadelphia (hockey/baseball/football) fans. A tough crowd. Nothing more, nothing less.

But now I am a bit concerned. Have the Boston Bruins' fans developed a sinister master plan? One where they are able to control the minds of the Flyers players - "I must get a five minute major". Something similar to the trance Ricardo Montalban's character put Reggie "I must kill the Queen" Jackson under in Naked Gun?
First of all, chill out. My response regarding shadows was meant in jest.

Second, in the context of my comment about the Flyers, you did indeed hint that an aggressive hit by Philadelphia would be caused by a fan. It may not have been what you meant, but there you have it. I think it's funny, and knowing some Philly fans, it wouldn't surprise me if a Flyers player was, say, confronted at a restaurant and sternly warned that on the ice he better do the bidding of the fans if he knows what's good for him.

As for Flyers fans just being a "tough crowd, well ... I note that within the word "tough" one finds all the letters you need to spell "thug."

Finally, if the Bruins have developed a sinister master plan that would enable them to do what you write, I would think every hockey fan here would be impressed.

I hope you can take all of this as "friendly banter."
