I smell fear coming out of Washington

[Bone]

The one team the Caps didn't want to play... The Rangers.

Still think we will win, but it'll be much harder

 

[BlueandWhiteForever]

I'd be worried about the Rags to if I was the Capitals. Teams that back their way in always seem to get the most out of their appearance in the playoffs, see Montreal last year.

Still I have the Caps in the Finals so I'm still taking Washington.

Fear and Semin aren't a good combination.

 

[Bone]

Didn't want to miss out for the 2nd straight year. Playoff hockey is too good.

Now SLY will have 2 out of 8 teams to fall back on.

I would rather have it raised in San Jose but if it has to be Boston, that's ok. I will be in Boston the first week of June. If they're in the finals at that point, my trip will be BANANAS.

Oh no... please... anyone but the team our franchise has won it's most playoff series against.

Should be a good series, but we'll win in 6.

The best part about the Rangers making the playoffs is that the Sather shelf life has been extended another five years...

Do you guys really need to bring up this garbage. Its playoffs now... I have dropped the Rags in the beginning of the season and solely follow the Bruins till death.

Usually leads to fear boners. And fear boners are never good during a game.

Philly isn't looking so hot going into the playoffs... I really want it to be us in the ECF! Time will tell... Regular season went by so quick. But this is what we all wait for!

 

[dash]

Is it fear or is it the Potomac?

 

[SLY]

So who you pullin for Dash?

I'm pulling for Boston in the East and the Kings in the West...

Edit: If Vancouver comes out of the West, it would be cool to see since I'm currently working in Burnaby and the buzz in the city would be fun.

The matchups out East are set, and I definitely could see some stumbling blocks for the higher seeds throughout. The Caps seem to struggle with the Rangers this season, but as a Pens fan I can attest that the regular season series against teams mean squat in the postseason. Philly/Buffalo was pretty even keeled this season, and I think the goalie matchup should be interesting. The Miller is ready to prove himself in the postseason I think. Montreal/Boston is...well, self-explanatory. Go B's. And Pens/Lightning is probably the biggest question mark in the playoffs.

Congrats to the Rangers & their fans. Hey Torts & Lundqvist I guess you got some help after all.

That was tough. I didn't think I could do it. Way to go me.
