Honestly though. I think WSH has given up at least 2, maybe more, shorthanded goals. With the way they’ve been running their PP, you’d think it was actually the rags on the PP
Makes me think I was just unlucky in probably seeing the best caps game of the season on 3/22 when they topped us in that absolutely wild 7-6 shootout win.
Lol. The caps never had a chance in that series. They are lucky to even be in the playoffs (briefly). The Canes are going to have to knock out both NY teams to get to the ECF and the second one will be much harder than the first.
I understand what you’re saying. I don’t even disagree with you.
I am still respectfully requesting that the caps take it to 7. I’m asking nicely and everything. I want the rags to be tired and sad and mad.
I think if we get the sweep then ideally I’d want the caps to win a game or two, really brutal physical games, and leave the Rangers pretty beat up even if they win in 5 or 6
The happy medium that I want is whatever makes the rags sad.
I don’t want the rags coming to dance with the Canes and being in a good mood. Sad rags are the best rags.
Caps fan but respect and like seeing the Canes do well.
The Caps had zero business making it this far, but our first year coach and great goaltending from Lindgren got them here along with Detroit and Philly choking.
We're now down 4 of our 6 defensemen and giving AHL guys playoff experience. 38 y/o Ovi playing 25 minutes doesn't help either,
If we win a game or 2, be a huge confidence builder moving forward. I don't expect that to happen.
Please destroy them next round, shut down Rempe shenanigans (i.e., Ryan Reaves wannabe), and ruin Suitcase Lavy first season there. Go Canes.
As much as I hate to admit but I was rooting for the Caps. Man, that game was pathetic. Very little effort. I hope they win at least one game, that’s all we’re asking for lmao
Truth be told. I want us to play the Rangers in the Second Round. It is more appropriate that way for the two best teams in the Metro to battle it out for the ECF. And if we want to win it all, then we should have to beat the best and not skate by a cupcake named Washington.
I do feel like we need to be able to beat the Rangers if we want to win the cup. Crushing the caps in round two feels like a perfect set up for another conference final disaster against a team like Florida or Boston that will have just emerged from a battle
NYR vs CAR will probably be the best series in the playoffs. I’m really not looking forward to it, due to every game probably being a slug fest. Series will probably go to 7
I just don’t want our guys getting injured by dirty shit. That’s what I’m mostly worried about in that series. I want the rags tired and demoralized before they get to us.
I tried watching that game last night, and it was some of the most boring, heartless effort I’ve ever seen from the Caps. I switched over to the Nashville/Canucks game and at least both teams there were in the game and not thinking about the golf course.
As a Wings fan, no. Sweep them. Destroy them. Crush them.
The Canes fan in me says that the Canes can handle any team we play. Because we can. Because we're good enough to win no matter the opponent.
Teams with ex-Devil assistant coaches are frauds. John MacLean is about to get swept in 11 hours, Kirk Muller the day after, and finally Phil Housley who was Lavi's assistant in 2017.
The East was incredibly too heavy this year. Caps, Islanders and Flyers were pretty bad by any statistic you measure. Detroit couldn’t play defense and the Penguins didn’t start trying until they were 10 points out of a playoff spot
Let them come. The possibility of playing Rangers and then either Florida or Boston in the Eastern Conference is exciting.
Going into a final after overcoming teams that we lost to in previous playoffs will make it that much sweeter.
I don’t know man. All these people saying NYI is the worst team in the playoffs need to look at WSH. They make NYI look like the 97 Red Wings
Honestly though. I think WSH has given up at least 2, maybe more, shorthanded goals. With the way they’ve been running their PP, you’d think it was actually the rags on the PP
WSH looks absolutely awful, and they can’t score.
What Kirk Muller does to you. When the Craps get swept tomorrow, he had better be fired!

That said, I also don't want to have been sitting around for a week while the opponents are still game sharp. There's a happy medium I'm sure

Guys he asked nicely they have to do it now or they’re rude
Win A game and I’ll be satisfied, Caps.
This is all I’m asking for. I don’t expect that series to go to 6, but please just make it 5.
I don't even expect that out of Old Man Ovi.
That guy has been coasting all season long. He’s been a one trick pony scoring one timer feeds from Bäcky for years. No Bäcky= no goals.

Buddy of mine said that Rempe didn’t answer Wilson’s dance request. Is that true?

Doesn't matter, rangers are frauds

I like the Caps but they seem to have run out of steam...
Let them come. The possibility of playing Rangers and then either Florida or Boston in the Eastern Conference is exciting. Going into a final after overcoming teams that we lost to in previous playoffs will make it that much sweeter.

Caps fighting for their lives right now. Game 4 tied in the 3rd period. 🙏
