Well, was there ANY doubt it'd be the Pens if the Caps manage to win this series.

   After seeing that terrible display of defence and goaltending in the Pitts/Philly series I'd say The Pens can be beat.

They can always be beat, but not by the Caps unfortunately.

I mean, depends on if they have the refs on their side. The blatant fucking trip by Letang in the offensive zone that lead to the Guentzel hat-trick even had Pierre the Pens biggest cheerleader wondering why it wasn't called.


The NHL needs to sort that shit out, because it always seems like this time of the year the calls like that ALWAYS go the Pens way. I'd be perfectly fine against us (if we get there) if the refs just put teh whistles away entirely and let Tom Wilson destroy Crosby. But we all know those levels of Karma's will never go our way. It'll be more like, Tom Wilson lightly bumps into Sid and then gets called a game misconduct and a suspension for almost hitting.

Which is why every penalty needs to count. . .ie for games.


If your're gonna get called and scammed anyway, might as well knock their head in to the third row and get your 2 minutes to 2 games worth and keep them in "the dark room: fro a couple months,

I'm surprised Boston took 7 games, but it gives the Caps an extra day of rest.


I can't even look at Penishead any more without seeing him getting rubbed out by a penguin...


which reminds me, what did Michael tell McCaully? Just play with it till the white stuff comes out ;D

If Marchand licked me I'd go McSorley on him.

Yep, only spent a Lee hours on Fremont, but I liked that better than the Strup, mainly because The D Casino has the second American Coney in it 🤗

Bruins scored one in the last minute of the 1st period. Tampa leads 3-1 in the series so we need Bruins to make them work harder and longer before we take them on.  :wackysmile:

watching Max throw 15 K's was more interesting, but then the bullpen took over...


hell of finish at the ballpark though!

Tampa won the series against Bruins 4-1. It would behoove the Caps to dispatch the Hens in the next game so we are not giving the Lightning much more opportunity to rest than we have.  Bruins looked pretty awful. Tampa Bay will be a hell of a matchup with the Caps.
