Series Thread: First Round: Carolina Hurricanes vs. Washington Capitals

[elocomotive]

Are there many Canes fans here? It’s one of the least popular teams in the NHL, but I imagine someone aspires to the ‘glory days’. Or Hartford.

No there are not. We had a real good one in Bizzle who hasn’t been seen round these parts much lately.

Never change, Eloco. hahaha

I am pulling my hair out right now and I am not a big basketball fan really.

Congrats... nice win for the cavs to get the gorilla off their back

His pic of his son holding a "Cowboys are poopy" sign was a big hit round these parts.

I think this is going to be a bad beatdown for the Canes in 4.

I don't count out any opponent in the playoffs. That said, this is the matchup that I wanted.

Welcome MoFo! The more caps fans the better to even out all the pens fans in here ( actually good bunch of guys )

Packers avi is a little disappointing

In before the lock.

Never lock a Capitals playoff thread, dare.

A Capitals playoff series is NEVER a lock.

Thanks for the welcome. Have been a fan for 30 years, and last year was a tremendous run, not just for the Caps, but by almost any NHL playoff standard. Pens fans ate some major crow last year, and for the first time I almost felt some sympathy for them.

Packers avi is a little disappointing

Not as much as a Redskins one.

 

[elocomotive]

My gut says the Caps lose game 1 but win the series in 6.

Hope I am wrong about tomorrow night.

That’s not a good goal for Mrazek to give up.

 

[naslundfan19]

Backstrom’s back, all right. 2-0 Caps.

 

[naslundfan19]

3-0. OV. PP.

Pretty good game for the good guys so far. Holts is Looking solid and the PP Is firing!

Uh-oh 3-1 now.

How was the Niskanen hit on Aho?

As I was saying Holtby is a sieve....
