Yeah I was surprised to see the caps loose! Only caught the tail end of the game.

If Halak has another game like that in him the Caps are done.

Even if the Caps win...how far can they go with Varlamov and Theodore? I don't like their chances to go real deep despite their firepower.

That was one of the finest goaltending displays so far this year. Luongo's save last night on Smyth was the save of the playoffs so far. I think the Caps are done. What about the Bruins winning? Amazing.
I'm looking forward to Coyotes/Wings manana!!!! Go Coyotes!!

And what a heartbreaking final two games for the Preds.
Now I hope it's the Pens/Hawks with a Pens victory...just so Hossa can watch the Cup hoisted for a third time.

Before you know it, he's going to ask to be traded to the 1976 Canadiens

Is that giant coyote at center ice howling, or are his nuts caught in a wringer ?

Ovie is 15 minutes away from golfing for the rest of the Summer.

[tier 0]

Hell yeah... I'm all for that.

Capitals go home and my Flyers get the Bruins next round!

BOUCH!!!!!

[masterrig 1]

I can dig it! I am really, a big Red Wings fan but, I'd like to see Les Habs do good. It's been a long time for them.

WOW! Back from being down 3-1 in Games.

A shut-out would have been good though I assume... you'll take the win anyhow?

Congrats!

The curse of the "Presidents Trophy" lives.

Try not to worry about the things you have no control over

[grimmie 173]

The best performance by a Habs goalkeeper since Patrick Roy!

The Caps, the biggest collapse since the '82 "Miracle on Manchester" Kings/Oilers series!

Wow! I really wanted Sid and the Pens to put a beat down on Ovie, but now we have to get to Halak. What a game!!!!

Go Pens!

OK, now that that's outta the way, who do you guys like for Lord Stanley's Cup?

The Caps look tough, but might crumble.
Canucks look solid as do the Hawks.

The team no one wants to play, Coyotes.

And if the Pens don't win it, please Hockey Gods, give a Cup to the Kings...please...

I gotta start betting hockey!!!!!

[Remster 24]

OMFG!!!!

Did they want to give me a heart attack?!?!

I'm I'm kentucky, and I was the only person yelling at the tv in the sports bar. And boy, was I yelling during the last 3 minutes!

You got that right. It was a wild final 3 minutes....down a man for the last 1:44.

Now, I am praying for another Habs upset and a Bruins win so that I can enjoy watching the Bruin fans get their hearts broken.

Something along the lines of 1971 when the Bruins were supposed to win it all and the Habs stopped them in the first round with a hot goaltender named Ken Dryden they had just called up.

Likely not going to happen but a guy can dream can't he?

I don't know but you can look at it this way... the Canadiens were seeded #8. They beat the #1 seeded team, Washington. That pretty darned good. Gives a fan a lot of hope.
