Other than not wanting to see Tampa advance, I really don’t care who wins. But, while I wouldn’t mind seeing Hathy and Orly get another Cup, I would rather see Boston lose.

Same here.  I'm pulling for Edmonton now though.  I don't really ever care what happens in the west, but I like Edmonton out of that side.
In the east...basically just a bunch of teams I Don't want to win so I'm kind of pulling for Toronto since they've suffered in the playoffs for so long.


Mostly I don't care, but I have watched a lot more non-Caps playoff hockey than I usua

Im hoping for Toronto & Edmonton as well. Lightning getting removed is the 1st order of business though.

I don’t mind Tampa winning tonight, I like seeing the series get drug out. The Devils shutout the Rags..
 :)


Winnipeg needs to win tonight or they are done

7 out of 8 series going to a game 6. 


Here's hoping they all go to a game 7.


It's really weird watching playoff hockey without the Caps in it.  I don't really care who wins, just wanna see good hockey.  So far, so good.

Watching NJ has been fun.  They probably won't go too far this year, but they are going to be hard to beat over the next 3 or 4 years.  Not good for the Caps.


Also, I watched Eller the other night and he is playing fast and hard. I think a lot of players, not just Caps players, benefit from a new challenge and our guys including Hathy and Orlov have really stepped it up.


Maybe when we get a new coach that is more aggressive and challenges players, we will see more of our guys playing at the next level.

I'll get depressed if I watch too much playoff hockey. Even the wildcard teams are light years faster and crisper than us.  :-(  Hopefully a new coach will inspire some better play, but you just can't sustain it with a bunch of old, slow, legs, no matter what the motivation is.

FLA/BOS going to game 7!!  :uh-huh:  If either team could kill a penalty they'd of won that one easily. Bos had 3 pp and a shorty and still lost. lol They'll probably win game 7, but I'll laugh and laugh and laugh if they get beat in round 1.  :)

I'm sure that when the Bruins polished off their record-breaking regular season, they didn't envision going to OT in game 7 of their first-round series.

Talk about deflating .... I'm sure the Bruins took very seriously playing out the regular season full-bore to get the best record in history.  And then to have it all evaporate like this in the first round .....

The 2010 Caps are no longer the last team (maybe only?) to have been President trophy winners and lose in the 1st round after having a 3-1 games lead!  :) :snicker: 


Bummer for Orly and Hathy, but that was gonna be my compromise excuse, if they won it. Fuck Boston!!!  :hearts:


And Orly bout to get fucking paid... Dude is a stud.

Just saw a replay of the winning goal.  Swagman never saw the puck on the shot - blocked by a perfect screen.

They were never intended to be used at Dover. It's too fast. (Not that they'd of used them anyway) But the "oval" rain package is only for Martinsville, Richmond and I think Loudon. (Maybe Gateway too?)
