as far as Holtby goes, the jury is still out. It's not uncommon to have a guy have a hot playoff run, sign a contract, and then turn mediocre. As far as the rest of the team, the talent hasn't improved. It's the same guys. If they're playing better now, I don't think it's because they're any more talented than they were. I guess the Ovie/Semen Caps can only have success in one. In the past it was the regular season, now it's the playoffs. Even if they lose tonight, it'd be the second best finish for them since 1998 (after 2009, beating the Rangers in 7 and losing to Cup winners Pittsburgh in 7).
amen to that......I'll give my left *&^ for a sort of Game 6 against Ottawa .... where we had a 3-1 lead going into the 3rd. That was about ther most I've been able to breathe during the playoffs so far.

the second we let fear in the door, it spreads like a plague all the way down to the ice. i'm feeling good about tonight, as desperate as the caps will be.
Win or lose, this team doesn't have the slightest chance of winning a championship if their head coach is going to sabotage them with his distribution of ice time. I just hope when he has his little temper tantrum during the press conference after the game he realizes he is just as responsible for this garbage as any single player on this team.
Seems like the Caps are just 1 step ahead all night so far.... It's exactly like Game 6 from last Series where all we need is 1 goal to get in their heads....
tORTS IS AN ASSCLOWN WITH THIS FUCKIN bOYLE AND prust already. Did Kreider pork Torts' wife? Why has he been buried on the bench?
