Yea, verily, your infra-underdawg Philalala Phlyers accomplished what most considered undoable: they beat the superior Pgh., Penna., Peng-a-wins by 4 games to 2 in their Eastern Conference quarterfinal of your 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs in the big-league ice hockey. The Flyers looked invincible after winning the first three games of the series; however, it was starting to feel a little shaky after The Pitt won Games 4 & 5 and seemed ready to take last night’s Game 6 in overtime, continually abusing the Phila. defense through the first 15 mins. of the extra period. Only the nonstop, last-gasp netminding heroics of Flyer goaltender Dannie Vladar kept the game deadlocked at nil. And then the magic happened, with the game- and series-winning goal coming with 3 mins. left in the overtime, completely against the run of play, on a post-ringing and scoreboard-dinging shot from Flyer defenseman Cameron York. Vladar, York & on to the Eastern Conference semifinals next week against the vaunted Carolina Hurricanes.
A couple of late-issues to settle from last night’s (Wednesday’s) action: at Opelousas, La., #4 Miss Metoyer (.214 Win Prob / 3.67-1 Fair Odds / 4.47-1 Premium Odds) took the fifth at an unimpeachable $10.20; then in Race 7, #8 Calicoco (.172 / 4.81 / 5.80) couldn’t be caught at $12.40.
As for today (Thursday), some of the races went like this…
In Race 3 from Ozone Park, N.Y., #5 K Gun (.277 / 2.61 / 3.22) fired best for the W at $10.10.
At Louisville, Ky., #2 Fresh Out (.208 / 3.81 / 4.63) got into the winner’s circle in Rac3e 3 at $15.06.
At Arcadia, Calif., Race 4 found #6 Harney Lane (.248 / 3.03 / 3.72) fastest to the wire at $9.80. In Race 7 there, #4 Sareeha (.220 / 3.55 / 4.32) got there at $13-even.
Five still alive for your nighttime drive from Chas. Town & Evangeline…
