Flyers win Battle of Pa.

Now they move up the coast to face New Jersey

After they lost the first two games at home, the Philadelphia Flyers were all but read their last rites. Just like after every other little setback and soap opera this season. But once again, the Flyers persevered, completing a belated four-game sweep of the Pittsburgh Penguins on Tuesday with a 2-1 victory in Game 6. Now the Flyers move on to the Eastern Conference final, where they will meet their rivals from New Jersey.
