A goalie can make a huge difference in a playoff series \u2013 for better or for worse. The Boston Bruins fought tooth and nail to crack Carey Price in round one of the 2011 playoffs. In Game 1 of their second-round series against the Philadelphia Flyers, the Bruins had a much easier puzzle to solve: Brian Boucher.<\/p>\n

They pounced on the inconsistent Philly netminder and didn\u2019t take their foot off the gas, chasing him from the game and finishing with a 7-3 win. David Krejci and Brad Marchand scored twice each. The Flyers struggles to find a consistent starting goalie continue to plague them year after year. Through eight games in these playoffs alone, the Flyers have started Sergei Bobrovsky, Brian Boucher, Michael Leighton, then Boucher again. Who knows which puckstopper will get the call in Game 2?<\/p>\n

Boucher couldn\u2019t stop a puck to save his life in Game 1 but also didn\u2019t have much help from his defense. The Flyers have plenty of size and strength on their blueline with guys like Braydon Coburn back there but it looked like they struggled with the transition from stopping Buffalo\u2019s finesse-oriented attack to batting Boston\u2019s bruising forecheck. The Flyers almost looked overmatched with Chris Pronger nowhere near 100 per cent. \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

On the bright side, it\u2019s not like Tim Thomas was spectacular at the other end for Boston in Game 1. The soon-to-be two-time Vezina Trophy winner hasn\u2019t been unbeatable in these playoffs<\/p>\n

The pick:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Flyers\u2019 goaltending has been horribly inconsistent. However, as much as it\u2019s never consistently good, it\u2019s not consistently bad, either. Boucher and every goalie in the Philly stable seem to respond well after a poor performance. Game 2 has to be the Flyers\u2019 \u201cpush back\u201d game and I think whoever gets the call in net will step up.<\/p>\n

The Flyers are flawed but still too good to fall behind 2-0 at home in my opinion. The sledding will be tough but I think they can find away to beat Thomas and even up the series.<\/p>\n

Bruins vs Flyers prediction: <\/strong>Flyers 5, Bruins 3<\/p>\n

Money Line: \u00a0Flyers -135
\nSpread: Flyers -1.5
\nOver\/Under: OVER 5.5<\/p>\n
