I suspect our boys are gonna get embarrassed. So far this season, when they play good teams, they don't just lose, they crumble.
The Bolts could be our first round opponent this year if we make the playoffs. This is a statement game, we need to beat them.
Why is it a statement game? We beat the pens all the time in the regular season and it means nothing.
Also so can ten other teams. A win and we barely behind division lead again
We need to show that we still have the ability to be on par with a team like Tampa. Beating Pittsburgh means nothing because they're a completely different team in the regular season.
We barely lost to them earlier this year. Besides if we do beat Tampa is that going to magically inspire us that we can beat them in playoffs?
Ya the East division is very tight. If we can string a few wins together we could be contending for the division lead.Caps are currently in the wildcard spot, Pens in the other. Both have played 23 games, 25 points.
NYR has played 22 games, and is 1 point behind us.
CAR, BOS, and OTT are 3 points behind us, they've each played 3 games fewer than us.
Caps are 1pt behind the NYI, who have played 2 fewer games, (they also beat Tampa earlier in the week). All of these teams are playing today, this is a big game. We play TOR tomorrw, our record on the end of back to backs isn't good. We gotta start getting those points. 4-3 Caps.
