It should be painfully obvious to everyone by now that the enjoyment in watching the Ovechkin-era Capitals is strictly limited to the regular season. Enjoy October through March, then do yourself a favor and start watching something else. It's a lot less aggrevating."
Pens aren't the same this year...weaker D, Murray is sometimes questionable. Will state this though...if not this year for the Caps, then when? Crosby's owned Ovi in everything but personal stats, and I believe 1 to be younger than the other. Crosby's not going away any time soon.

Ovi needs to get over his demons and forget his past. His 'Cant wait' statement won't help...it didn't help Bart Scott.

I leave you with the following...

Penguins will take the Caps...in 6..maybe 5. Caps are a one man show. Ahh...Pens have easy street with these first two rounds. Tampa will wipe them out!

Time to get some playoff shit talking going.

So kind...and so mean...all in one post. Must have been the lack of games last night. Some sort of withdraw.

Speaking of. NHL better start the west on Thursday. No way Boston/Toronto gets an extra days rest. They want rest, finish in 6

OK, we can agree on the Purple People Eaters. Actually the only NFL team I've ever liked.


Hey, what ever happened to Sharks/Knights? It seems like it's been WEEKS since BOTH LA teams got swept Is there just no LA stations willing to cover?
You'll love this jgoens I added Sharks as a favorite team in ESPN app, you know, so I could watch them lose to Vegas

Sharks and Vegas start tomorrow night..finally. I'm really looking forward to this series and it might be the best of all the playoffs. The Sharks lost to the Knights 3 out of 4 times, however, they were extremely close games: 5-4 OT, 5-3, 3-2 and the Sharks win was 2-1 OT.

These teams play a similar style of disciplined puck possession grinding hockey. I would expect fairly low scoring "chess like" play and think if the Sharks can limit mistakes, which Vegas is fantastic at taking advantage of, and get on Fleury right away they can win this series.

I don't think experience in the playoffs has anything to do with this series as Vegas has a bunch of seasoned players and Fleury who knows what it takes to go all the way.

Giving my optimistic pick of Sharks in 6.

Leafs / Bruins game seven tonight.

I'll be watching from the comfort of behind home plate at the Blue Jays / Red Sox game this evening.

Hopefully both Toronto teams can win tonight...but if only one can, it better be the Leafs.

As longshot as it is, I would love a final matchup of the Sharks vs Leafs and Patrick Marleau.

Both Toronto teams?

You mean all 4 teams....Leafs, Raptors (game 5 can swing the series), Jays and TFC CONCACAF Final leg 2. Too much to watch tonight

This worries me. I fear Malkin has a high ankle sprain...I'd so, he's done. Haglin I'm told was spitting chicklets...no discipline for that DB Giroux (but let's talk about that trip Letang did some more).

Without Malkin...Pens are average. Without Hagelin...speed is non-non-existent

This Toronto/Boston game 7 is turning out to be a very, very good game. I'm pulling for the Maple Leafs.

Welp, so much for Hockey Night in Canada.

We'll see all those north of the boarder sometime early October.
