On a serious note, what do you think Trotz is gonna do when he get's everyone back healthy? I really think the 13 - 20 - 77 line was just dynamite tonight and should be kept together going forward. Maybe...

8 - 92 - 43
18 - 19 - 65
13 - 20 - 77
39 - 83 - 25

Is the key? I'd like to keep Walker in over 39 or 25 for his speed but no way either get's sat for the rookie.

I picked the Caps to beat CBus in 6 and the Caps to beat the Pens in 6. I am now picking the Caps to win in 7. (If Backstrom is healthy.)

If Backstrom is good to go with 3 days rest then the Caps have a good shot against a very good TBay team.

Don't know how serious Backstrom's injury is, though.

Main boards are hilarious. Tampa fans saying Vas is clear above and beyond an advantage over Holtby. The greatest playoff goaltender of all time statistically taking GAA and SV% into it. "MY GOALIE HAS PLAYED IN THE THIRD ROUND" because your starting goalie (bishop) got you there and fell apart and he jumped in and lost.

Understand that 18-19-77 is Trotz primary matchup checking line. Putting 13 on that line kills that. You would expect that Trotz would put a premium on that line stopping the Stamkos line.

Besides, I don't think we see 65 and I am somewhat dubious about 19 at this point.

I found the TB fans here to be more dismissive of the Capitals than Pens fans. I have two words in mind th0ugh.....Tom.....Wilson
