Willy gets a nice goal there. Caps can't take their foot off the gas. they've been dominating 5 on 5 play.

Caps now on a 7-0 run since that big Wilson hit.

Welp, that's it for the Habs, but a hell of an effort. Really bright future for Montreal.

Caps are looking great especially if Thompson keeps playing like he is between the pipes.

Great series, Habs. They are on the rise. Both of these teams have a lot of young, talented guys. May not be the last time we see them in a series in the next few years. Chapeaus off, Habs.

Also glad to see the Caps get back to form after a dulling end of the season. Great to have Thompson and Protas back healthy.

4 down, 12 to go!

Grats to Caps fans also to Habs fans that was a tough matchup and they played pretty tough in it.

Can’t believe it’s been seven years since we won a series. Amazing how much winning a Cup takes the sting out of everything.

Since the ‘98 Cup Finals team, this only the third time the Caps have won a series in less than six games (2010 vs Rangers, 2018 vs Vegas in finals). Crazy, but pretty great.

Also, I heard it's been 10 years since the Caps won a series at home. Nice extra treat for the Caps faithful.

Great effort by the Hans, @Comeds . I’m cross the alley in the attic if you need a hug.
