It’s Over

Posted in Capitals, NHL, Penguins, Pittsburgh, Playoffs, Washington on May 13, 2009| Leave a Comment »

The Pittsburgh Flightless Birds are going to the Eastern Conference Finals. The Penguins killed the Caps 6-2 in game 7 of the Eastern Conference semis. That is it, the season is over for Washington. The series lived up to all the hype and most of it was entertaining. Pittsburgh outplayed the Caps in every game; they out shot, out hustled and were more disciplined. Along the same lines and since the series is over, I can’t bite my tongue anymore. The referees were awful. The Caps lost because they were outplayed, but I can’t not think that the outcome may have been different if the penalty’s were more even. The Caps did commit more penalty’s, but the Penguins committed their fair share and didn’t get called foe them. Never the less, it is over. Thank you for a great season!

After coming back from a 2-0 and 3-1 deficit against the Rangers, the Caps will face the flightless birds on Derby Day. If you are the NHL, is the rebirth complete. The sports 2 biggest and 2 best stars will be slugging it out for a trip the the Eastern Conference finals. The game will at 2pm in the east on NBC (for our Canadian viewers CBC). With the game taking place on a Sunday on free TV, I predict that this game will get some nice ratings. So will it live up to the hype?

The Rangers won 2-1 to take a 3-1 series league over the Caps. The Caps have dominated the games, but have only one win to show for it. I don’t believe the Rangers are a good team. It looks like the Caps are wearing them out. There is one reason for the Rangers success. His name is Henrik Lundqvist. He stopped 38 of 39 shots. If the Rangers hold on to win, it will because of Lundqvist.

If The Playoffs Started Today

If the NHL playoffs started today…

Nothing special would happen in the West, but in the East…Oh Boy.
Bruins and Habs, Rangers and Devils, Caps and Canes and Pens and Flyer’s, What do all these teams have in common? Each team plays in the same division as their opponents and they are all rivals. I’m not one for making “if” statements, but I thought this was amusing.
