Penguins Eliminate Flyers With Huge Rally
25th April, 2009 - 5:55 pm
CBS Sports - The Flyers jumped out to a 3-0 lead in a must-win game at the Wachovia Center on Saturday afternoon, but the Penguins rallied and sent Philadelphia home for the summer.

Mike Knuble and Joffrey Lupul scored within a minute of each other at the end of the first period, and Daniel Briere added a third goal at the 4:06 mark of the second to give the Flyers a 3-0 lead.

However, Ruslan Fedotenko scored for Pittsburgh less than a minute later, which kicked off a huge rally by the defending Eastern Conference champions.

Mark Eaton, Sidney Crosby (twice) and Sergei Gonchar added goals for the Penguins as they took Game 6, 5-3, and advanced to the second round of the postseason. [READ]
