Normally Id love a 1-0 game between these two. . . .but that was pretty brutal.
1-0 games suck when its just two teams sucking at offense and not two teams playing high intensity, aggressive, smothering D.
The Caps have to win games like that for them to have a chance in a series, but I haven't seen much to support they have the acumen, IQ, and guts to not pout about individually not scoring. . .Its easy to say "they're pro's, have faith,. Rock The Red Kool Aid Ohhh Yeah", but the data that they will, or are able to is simply not there. . .
The Wings are bitter/sweet . . . a combination of Murphys Law and the waining Euro-calm is disturbing and resulting the the worst record since before i was high school at least, but next and and the years after,. . .holy shit. We saw Svenchnikov last night, (now thats the type of Euro we need!), not only dod play great, slammed Willie, but fought Dalton Prout to a draw this year, with 22 its in AHL after 51 pointss last year and they have several more similar types in the system. . . . it could get . . . .FUN,
