If the Flyers pull off a victory, it will only be the the 4th time ever (not positive here, but I know it's a low number) that a team has been down 3 games and gone on to victory. I think the last time this happened was a series between Colorado and Vancouver. Colorado was in the same boat, up 3, and ended up on the losing end.

It seems just cruel that I, as a Bruins fan, have to be the one to report that the Bruins lost!

Rex is inaccurate about losing after being up 3 game to zero. In the NHL, before tonight, it had happened only twice before, the last time in the 1970s. Never Colorado. I'm too distraught to remember the details.

It's happened only once in baseball, one of the two other U.S.-based sports that has 7-game series. And that was my beloved Red Sox, beating the Yankees after being down 3 games to none in 2004.

Now I'm going to stick my head in the oven.
