The nearly hour-long practice was lively, and the mood was optimistic before they flew to Philadelphia in the afternoon. A day earlier, Bylsma described the team`s emotions as shock and disbelief.
In 24 hours, that had improved.
"I don`t think anybody came here today shocked or down," Crosby said.
What they felt was a sense of urgency.
"We`ve just got to win one game," said Crosby, who reiterated often that his team had yet to put a complete game together. "That`s really what it comes down to."
Only three NHL teams have recovered from 0-3 to win a playoff series, including the Flyers in 2010. It`s an overwhelming situation, but Crosby said his team`s focus isn`t on the long odds.
"It`s something you can`t dwell on," he said. "You just can`t afford to dwell on that. It`s not going to make anything better and it`s not going to change anything. I think our minds are in the right place. We want to find a way to get back into this series. I think every guy in here believes we can do that."
