I've already coined it the Alex Orr'vechkin goal. You all can feel free you use that pending the royalties checks clearing.Thread needs this.

Check out the shimmy!
For the past two series the players I've disliked the most have been Chris Kunitz and James Neal. That they've both played for the Penguins, coincidence , I think not.
Seems like a broken record of excuses on the main boards. Everyone said that the Pens didn't play their game against the Caps. Then we were told the Caps won their Cup by beating the Pens and would get slaughtered by Tampa. Then people said Tampa wasn't playing up to their best against the Caps.
Now we are hearing how Vegas doesn't look the same against the Caps and have yet to play their game.
At what point do people actually give the Caps some credit rather than make excuses for the opposition?
I'm 50 damn years old, my dad took me to my fist Caps game in 1974, I was 7, it was their inaugural season, and they sucked a$$. I've been a hockey fan, hockey player, and Caps fan ever since that day.
I've been down on this team from time to time but I've bled Caps Red White and Blue and then whatever the fck that blue and gold crap was, and now all red, for all 44 years.
Ahh, the "Save the Caps" ticket drive. Memories, man, memories!!
No way. The only comparable defender they had was Schimdt, but Werenski and Jones were lightyears ahead of everyone else. And offensively there's no one to be scared of from Vegas while on the other hand Panarin was the most terrifying player we've faced all post season. Generally I think that's pretty much the only thing holding the Knights back, they just don't have any dominate forward to really dictate a game and for as good as Schmidt is he's not a "real" number 1.
I like the Tampa comparison. They're like Tampa light in that they're a fast and skilled team but seem to lack that mental fortitude.

Yep. My story except in almost 49, and started in 1977.
It Is Time
I could give 2 ****s. Seriously. Not a care in the world what other fans think. Most of them are bitter Pens fans anyway....you know, the ones who don’t consider us “rivals”.
GO CAPS!!!
Enter Rod Langway, Stage left. Saved the team, he did.
Really? Tampa had talent in spades, internal fortitude in spurts. I see Vegas as exactly the opposite. Talent in spurts and internal fortunate in spades.
I expect their best game on Monday. By a long shot. They win GM4, and they are back in the drivers seat. Caps cannot take ANYTHING for granted here (neither should we, as Cup starved fans of 40+ years). They’ve won nothing and are one game from being in full scramble mode again.
