Congratulations to Tampa Bay for coming back from a 3-1 series deficit to win and eliminate the Penguins. Their reward...the Capitals.
The Eastern Conference playoffs played out as I had said a couple of days ago. I thought we would end up playing the Lightning. However, they are the team I least wanted to play. They are playing with confidence and seem relaxed. They are also getting good goal tending from Roloson and they have star power with their big 3 (Stamkos, St. Louis, and Lecavalier). They also still have a few guys on their team that were there when they won the Cup a few years back so they have experience.
Still, the Caps are the #1 seed and, while I didn't want to face the Lightning, I feel confident we will take care of business. We were 4-1-1 against them this season. We are rested and hopefully will get Wideman and Knuble back some time during this series. TB is coming off of a tough emotional series so they have to turn right around and go from Pittsburgh to D.C. and prepare for the Caps. Winning Game 1 will be huge. It all starts tomorrow night and I like our chances.
UNLEASH THE FURY!!!
