[LaffyTaffyNYR]

Lgr!

 

[SlingshotVv]

so... we meet again

 

[silverfish]

Fourth time since 2009 these two teams meet in the playoffs.

Welcome to our division... Damn.

Lock down Ovechkin, and stay out of the box. Holtby isn't that good. Time to focus on stealing AT LEAST one in DC.

Let's do this boys.

 

[ThisYearsModel]

Ugh. The Crapitals again. They are the hottest team in the league.

 

[Megustaelhockey]

Oh, I know these ********!

 

[Callagraves]

:::sigh:::

This **** again?

I still remember which ones annoyed the **** out of my last year

 

[LeetchisGod]

Ugh. The Crapitals again. They are the hottest team in the league.

We haven't exactly been chopped liver ourselves lately. Stay out of the box and we win the series. We're the better team 5 on 5.

 

[Nanaki]

I hear rumors that there are other teams we can possibly face. I can't verify though.

 

[Saitama]

We win this easy. I don't fear the Caps in the slightest.

 

[The Gloaming]

It's official now? Ok then. Bring on the OviChickens!

 

[The Mouth]

Man this is getting tiresome playing these guys. I would feel better if Staal were playing. Jason "bleeping" Chimera again. I will be there at MSG game three LGR !

 

[Green Blob*]

OMG, again?


Ugh, Great time for AO to be a monster. Time for Zuccerello to knock him into next week!!

 

[KingWantsCup]

So ****ing annoyed right now. So tired of playing these guys.

Rangers in 7.

 

[darko]

Caps have won 16 out of their last 21 games.

 

[Kershaw]

Caps in 7.

 

[Green Blob*]

Calling Marc Staal...we could really use ya back now

 

[Ekani]

Those guys again, eh? Pretty lame but it's better than the Pengos or the Habs.

Rangers in 6.

 

[LeetchisGod]

Caps have won 16 out of their last 21 games.

They weren't playing us. I'd feel even more confident with Staal back though.

 

[Callagraves]

Use McD and G to cool Ov off. Outside of their top 4 forwards, there's not much there. OV, Backstrom, and Ribs are top priority. Staal makes all of that much easier.

The key to this series is going to be staying out of the box and pressing hard on the forecheck. We'll need to own the puck, and clog the hell out of the neutral zone on transition.

 

[Fataldogg]

Wait, how is this official?

Anyhow, Capitals in 6.

Nash will be a no show. Richards will still be our best forward in the post season.

Richards has a habit of picking up his play down the stretch for us. 6 goals 10 assists 16 points in 14 games with us in April heading into the post season. Coincidence? He'll be the x-factor. Not Nash.

 

[Ghost of jas]

Caps in 7.

This makes me confident of a Rangers win.

 

[Doctyl]

if staal and dorsett are in for game 1 along with clowe making an appearance in this series we have a good chance

 

[Callagraves]

Caps in 7.

Really don't want to lose that bet, do you


Rangers in 5

 

[LeetchisGod]

Wait, how is this official?

Ottawa can only tie us in points. We own the tiebreaker.
