Thanks @Blue Canary I normally have the "They've already won enough in my life for me to be more than satisfied" attitude. But I still can't even stand looking at Ray Ferraro. And all he has was an assist. I dont want these jamokes having the satisfaction of ending the reign.

Same here. Anyone but the Flyers or Caps. Already beat the Flyers and now on the verge of elimination from the Caps, that would ruin my summer. Don't care if we make it to the conference or Stanley Cup final and lose. Just don't let the effing Caps end our reign.

Yes sir. I hate those scumbags so much. Anyone but the Caps.

As long as the Caps lose in the next round, I'll get over it quickly.

It has become apparent that HCMS needs to start limiting Letang's minutes. It is really depressing to type that, but it doesn't make it less true.

That contract has been an albatross from the start. The worst decision of Shero's tenure.

I think it’s a given that if the caps win, we will want Tampa to demolish them. But I’m not sure they will be able to close out the pens

Like I (and many more) wrote:

We should have pursued Karlsson for Letang+

Now we received a center that our coach played 12 minutes in this game.

I hope that our coach and GM spoke to each other before the Brassard trade (Cole wasn't playing anyways). But I can't help feeling a little bit like when Shero went for Iginla and Bylsma played the HHOF winger on the wrong side :face:

Guess it will be nice to see Winnipeg crush Tampa in the finals...

Caps nation thinks Guentzel should be suspended for the Carlson hit. Jesus Christ. There isn’t even an angle that shows contact. Not to mention the 7 other reasons Wilson was suspended that don’t apply here.

Letang was having an outstanding series before the 3rd last night. Sort of surprised he reverted so quickly.

And this is sort of classic Maatta stuff too. 99% of the time he’s lights out. 1% he’s passing to backstrom for GWG and missing gaping open nets in the most important moment of the year.

I don't Letang has been outstanding. I think he had been good, mostly. But no real offensive threats like he used to.

Losing 2 games in which you had a lead going into the 3rd period = you don’t deserve to win the series.

It sucks with how winnable these games have been.

It also sucks that on paper, this is probably the most lopsided a Penguins-Capitals playoff matchup has looked. But when you consider Letang is now a potato, Kessel too, Sheary/Rust invisible and Brassard too... welp. Never even heard of this Vrana guy til this series and he’s outplayed most of our forwards.

Still a chance. I just think winning 2 straight seems unlikely given all this team’s issues.

Just wondering where their poise has gone in the 3rd. They’ve collapsed 3 games in a row. It hasn’t even been that intense from Washington. They’re just easily having their way with us.

I thought Brassard played excellent yesterday. Really his line as a whole was solid. Unfortunately, it’s still a line featuring Sheary and Kuhn.

His line and Sheahan's line we're moving pretty good last night.

Rob Rossi saying the Pens are running out of Sid and Geno time. What an entitled ******. They're coming off of back to back cups.

Just read that in the Trib. Any video to support their stupidity? I didn't see it so can't really make a claim either way but it sounds like more typical Washington psychobabble rather than concentrating on their own house. Is it worse than Oshie launching at Letang?

There looks to be one replay where it looks like a standard hit. This, to many, makes it identical to the Wilson hit - even without any other camera angles.
