They are going to win it.

I mean, sure, everybody still has a chance. But the Blackhawks are pretty done now. The Pens can't beat this team. I'd say the Panthers have a slim chance IF they beat their first round opponent, but that would likely go to 7 anyway. Only so many times you can take a series to 7 games, squeak out a win, and still have enough in the tank to take on a team with more and deeper talent.

So congrats, Caps.

I'll be the first to put it out there. And if they don't win, feel free to bump this thread in perpetuity and make me look like an ass.

I'll be bumping this when they get knocked out in round 2 like always ;) :yes::hope:

I meant living in DC, you've seen a lot of flameouts.

I've really come to enjoy it. I really have. Nats losing the division to the Mets last year was the best. Now had the Isles had a complete set of balls last year, maybe they could have put up a better fight in game 7.

Since we all now want them to fail...who knocks them out? If I'm the Caps, I don't want Philly right now.....

My personal preference is for the Predators to do it with a sweep in the final.

I dont think anyone out of the Atlantic side can do it....I'm banking on either the Pens or Flyers. They'll probably steamroll the Rags and/or Isles.

like they said on the broadcast yesterday, there are 7 teams that could get out of the west, each one has different matchup problems for the capitals. If Holtby goes down anytime during the playoffs it all goes away.

You can say that about any team in the league.

Doesn't the overall #1 win more often than any other position? And doesn't the theory of due suggest this would be another year for a Trophy/Cup winner? ;)

They're going to be a tough out but I'm not ready to give them the Cup yet.

There's a rival exception? Oh sweet. Prepare for the most brutal trash talking you've ever seen, Eloco.

...Although, for the good of the environment, perhaps I should recyclable talk instead...
