If we play the team game we played on Weds we should be okay. Don't know how feel about Burt in the line up over guys that earned ice the rest of these playoffs. I get it, he's a "better" player, but I don't know.

I very much share your concerns about 65. I'm not convinced that he is mature enough or responsible enough yet to be in this game and may cost us. All depends on which Burt shows up at this game.
NBC goons already pissing on the Caps. (Ō_ƆŎ)

Does anyone else feel like we should have given Burakovsky more skating time with the team to get his timing back? Plus, you just won the biggest road game in a generation, without Backstrom, why change things up?

In fairness, Backy was injured midway through the 1st period last game and played a limited game taking no faceoffs. Then he did not return at all 9 minutes into the 3rd. We still handled the Hens pretty well when they were t their most desperate.

Yes, me. I am more concerned about having 65 in than I am having 19 out.
