The Philadelphia Flyers are heading to the second round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. On Wednesday night, they fought tooth and nail to pick up the Game 6 victory. Both they and the Pittsburgh Penguins went to overtime with a scoreless tie. At points, it looked as though the Penguins could force a Game 7, given how much they spent in Philadelphia's zone. But Cam York played the role of hero, sending a wrist shot past Penguins goalie Arturs Silovs to give the Flyers the 1-0 win and advance to the second round.
Flyers fans heard the call from NBC Sports Philadelphia's Jim Jackson, and it undoubtedly fired them up. But what about the calls on Pittsburgh television and radio? Look no further than the tweets below:

Listen to Pittsburgh calls of Cam York's OT winner in Game 6
The Sportsnet Pittsburgh call had some emotion in the call. As for the Penguins Radio Network call, it went from pure jubilation of Silovs' incredible stick save, to silent after York's shot went past the goalie to end Pittsburgh's season. It has to be music to Flyers fans' ears.
The Flyers entered the season like the Penguins — without high expectations. Both teams were projected to miss the playoffs and instead be lottery teams. Instead, they both cinched second and third place in the Metropolitan Division. Even entering this series, the Flyers were the underdogs since they are a young overall team, as compared to a Penguins roster that has years of playoff experience.
Yet, the Flyers took a commanding 3-0 series lead, looking like the better team. But the Penguins came back in Games 4 and 5, and pushed the Flyers to overtime in Game 6. But when they needed it the most, York stepped up.
Next up for the Flyers is a series against the Carolina Hurricanes, who swept the Ottawa Senators in the first round. They will look to shock the world again. Meanwhile the Penguins begin their offseason of uncertainty.
