Well, the Caps set one more record before the season was over; They are now the first #1 seed to lose to the #8 seed after leading the series three games to one.

We (Wings) preceded you though in winning the President's Cup and going out in the first round...

I blame George W. Bush because he screwed up the economy and I had no money to go watch the games at the phone booth in person... you add that with Teeter watching the games and we were doomed from the start.

Unbelievable.. I'm still stunned.. hurt.. confused.. saddened.. angry.. FURIOUS!!!

1st Goal-
2nd Goal-
3rd Goal *our one*-

6 on 4 (empty net)-
They cleared the puck down our side-
Game over (so is season)-

Turning on 92.7 (Mike & Mike)-
Coming into work and security guard (cow fan) saying, damn dude, your guys suck-

I don't think I can contribute anything else about that series. Hockey is done for me until next season. I still love our team and I hope Bruce doesn't get the ax. See you gents/ladies next season (or in another thread).

I think you captured it perfectly here Joe....

Dude, no one at work cared about hockey until the Caps started their slide. Today its, "you guys suck!"

worst of all, its what four months? from the start of the NFL season.

this made me laugh though.

This is the reason I can't "invest" my heart in this team's post-season. It does not matter how good they are through the regular season... once the post begins... they suck.

To make matters worse the Pens destroyed Montreal tonight.

I had a feeling this would happen. If you look at a lot of our shots they were not quality attempts. We put a lot of pucks on goal but not very many quality shots. Our defense tried to play physical but lets face it we are not a physical team and because of that we were out of position a lot.

Same weakness that killed us last year. Maybe this is the year we finally accumulate some better, physical defense?
