Hmmm Ravens traded down. . . Interesting

[apace41]

Hopefully in 4. Why drag it out?

Nah.  We’ll win Sunday and we’ll be all “we can win on the road.” Then lose both at PPG. Then decide tee times look inviting and phone it in for game 5 at home.

[RavenCp]

Is that a serious question ?

Well, what is a point to watch? I think we have chances and Pens are not playing so well.

Because even not playing well they have a 4 minute spurt and it’s enough to beat our sorry ass like a drum.

[apace41]

It always starts with that fuckwad Hornqvist. He gets a lucky ass deflection and you can see our guys saying “Ruh roh.  Here it comes again.”  So far inside our collective heads we might as well forfeit.

How many 2 fukkin goal leads can we blow in the payoffs?  I bet we are close to the record.

I didn't watch. I score checked. We have ZERO chance of winning this series and you know it. It's NOT gonna happen. I'm not just being negative. We all know this WILL end. I'd bet anything on it.

[OldHat]

They took their foot off the gas.  Simple as that.  Outworked them for two periods then started playing slowly and more deliberately and got burnt.  Coastin OV IN the third.

Forfeit would be hilarious.  I honestly wish they could just to save the REPEATED embarrassing choke jobs.

[Maacoshark]

Disappointing loss. Every fucking time we play the Pens.

[KitFisto]

God is a Pens fan. No other possible answer.

[ArJunaZ]

It's one game folks. We came back from 2 down and won 4 straight last series. This team has shown incredible improvement and more heart than we've seen in ages. I'm not freaking out. I honestly did not freak out when we were down 2-0 last series because we were playing well. Same here. With more good coaching and adjustments we have a shot.

V-G-K!!!!

[alta]

Hey the NFL draft is on. . . Wonder who will get to a Championship round first:  The Caps, or my Lions. . . .


The fuckin Lions.


BetaMale is in Matt Miller territory of GM caliber

that is a tough call, I'd be tempted to take the Caps over the Lions

yep, the typical play of this team with a two goal lead, postseason not withstanding

V-G-K!!!! 


Former Cap Eakin followed by Haula

[justwincaps]

I was at work, recorded the game, did everything I could while at work not to hear the results, got in my car, forgot I'd left the radio on and they announce the score.   So f'n glad I don't have to watch us collapse yet again.   We can't even beat this team without Malkin.   What a joke.


On the other side, VGK up 3-0 early in the first.  Nice to see a team get a two goal lead and actually try to increase it.

[Mickstix]

Wow, another 2 goal lead lost at home. In the 3rd period no less.
