Thank God!!!!!!!!!! I don't think I could have watched another series of Johnson,Paquette,Kunitz and Callahan just to name a few.
So happy the Caps go to the finals. Liked the Bolts more but can't cheer for a team that was given such an easy playoffs due to brutal officiating. Plus if the Bruins aren't able to win it , I like to see a team that never won it before do it. Imagine if the Knights win it in their first season!
This is exactly why I can't cheer for them . Way to many wrong calls went their way. Sucks even worse when many were against your team.

...and way too many non-calls worked in Tampa's favor as well.
Glad to see them gone!

Quite the disappearing act by Stamkos, Kucherov and Point in Games 6 and 7

I didn't see the entire series, but whenever I did have it on Washington was dominating. Vasilevskiy stole Game 4, and there was a psychological carry-over. In the end, the deserving team won.
Amazing that George McPhee's upstart Knights are facing a Caps team he had a hand in building. I imagine Nate Schmidt is also excited to be facing his former team.
Whoever wins, it will be a fairy tale story for the league. Either the expansion Knights win it all, or Ovechkin finally lifts the Cup.

Couldn't be happier to see the bolts knocked out especially 4-0 in game 7 at home, their fans asked for it with their insufferability this post season
I hope the caps win the cup, ovie finally gets his and personally as much as I like the story of the knights, I feel like if their fans win a cup their first season, they won't really appreciate what it means to win one. Losing in the finals however would sting and help them become true NHL fans where they would appreciate it if they won one down the line
Go caps!

Both teams eschew tradition and touch the Conference trophies. Maybe after Crosby touched it in 16 and 17 and won it’s not a “thing” anymore?
I hope the Caps win the Cup now. I still don't like them but it sucks to me that a team like the Knights are in the Final. Those Western conference fan bases must be pissed. Cup windows, salary cap, drafting well, developing players....then the Knights get an NHL ready team. There goes another year for them. I hope the Caps win in four...lol

I'll be fine with whoever wins, but wouldn't it be the absolute most "Washington Capital" thing in the world for them to finally make the SCF and lose to an expansion team in year one?

Yes (old Caps) and no (this year’s Caps). This version of the Washington team has slayed a lot of the old dragons and there is no reason they can’t lift the Cup.
I’m just hoping for a good series.

I’ll actually be happy for whatever team wins it. It’s been a strange year.
Should be Boston-Vegas finals.
Not gonna lie, still pissed we didnt make it. I am still pissed we didnt get by Tampa.
I still take it all back to that last game of the season where we couldve drawn Jersey in round 1

I cant stand eller or orpik, so no way I want the Caps to win.
Im going with vegas all the way.
Since Neal and Fleury left the Pens, they seem like really likable players.
