The year before the Caps won, they were swept in the first round

Nah fam.

 

[will1066]

Maybe Coop and Sully swap HC positions

 

[eco's bones]

The broken stick of Gudbranson stops the icing.

Unreal with Tampa. Did not think they could lose this series, let alone get swept. I really don’t have any pleasure in it that they lost.

3-1 NYI

Bingo.

 

[Machinehead]

Boy howdy, there go the Penguins.

Now you know Caps are winning two in a row because things just can't keep going this good for me.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

You should.

 

[duhmetreE]

The fans deserve to see McDavid in the playoffs... EDM do us all a favor and trade him

 

[nevesis]

f*** the Pens.

 

[Black Aces]

If I was Tampa I wouldn't change anything. Wouldn't be the first time a team suffered a horrendous loss only to come back the following year with vengeance. Think Virginia in college ball.

This isn't the first rodeo for this core.

 

[LeetchisGod]

What’s the point of trying to build a perfect team? The best team of the cap era just got swept in the first round lol.

Sign Panarin, bring in Kakko, Kravtsov and a new D coach and we’re legitimate contenders it this is how it’s going to be.

Our blueline is bad. Our young forwards are too green. We are at least three years from being contenders.

 

[Leonardo87]

You should.

I really just don’t care dude. Lol.

I want to speed up the playoffs, get to the draft, and focus on next season.

 

[ReggieDunlop68]

He's not wrong.

 

[Trxjw]

Didn't even need the Pens game on to know the Islanders iced it. Can hear half my neighborhood swearing and screaming.

 

[Black Aces]

to the Rangers

 

[Machinehead]

The year before the Caps won, they were swept in the first round

Uh, no?

 

[Fugazy]

Penguins didn’t even show up. Shame.

 

[trilobyte]

Yeah, that is still one hell of a collection of talent in Tampa Bay. Could very well be the scenario of coming back after finding out how deficient they were. They probably didn't know.

Mario Lemieux sad

You should read what Kucherov just tweeted..."It wasn't our time". TB fans are livid.

 

[ReggieDunlop68]

Mario Lemieux sad

Time to tank?

 

[Zibanejbread]

If WAS advances, it'll be Caps vs Trotz

 

[Paulie Walnutz]

Whoever the poster is on here who said Tampa is the Rangers’ retirement home needs to be given a medal.
