They just underwhelm year after year. They probably should win this series in 5 or 6 games MAX. They should have beaten the Islanders in 6 games 2 years ago, the really shouldn't have needed a nailbiter sixth game and 1-0 win over the Flyers last year. They shouldn't have lost to the Rangers at all in 2015. They were 2 minutes away from winning it in 5 games and winning 4 in a row to win the series (I think?) and the Rangers tied it and won in OT and that was the series.What you said about doubting the Caps make a deep run, Bleed...
I don't see them surviving Pittsburgh.
I really just don't know what it is with this team. I don't trust them at all, even though that have a freakin All Star lineup.
I wish they did lose to the Islanders. The way they laid down to the Rangers and choked away that 2 game lead was an embarrassment. The only good it did was force the Rangers to play 7 games and be worn down for the next round against Tampa.And don't forget that two years ago the Caps probably get knocked out in the opening round if Tom Wilson doesn't end Lubo Vishnovsky's career with a textbook illegal hit leaving his feet to deliver it.
This is the first year Boston has made it in two years, even though it doesn't seem like it.I'm happy to see new teams in the playoffs. I can only take the red wings for so long. Now when does Boston, Anaheim, or the Rags miss?
Watching the first two periods of the Caps game.
They have no killer instinct. Like they looked like they could easily dispatch the Leafs, but they just refuse to go at full speed.
If they can't turn it on now, then when? They are the better team too. It is evident to me watching them. Leafs are really inexperienced and have clear holes.
I want to almost say the Caps look lazy
I'm at the point where I can't care any less if Washington loses the series.
It's fun to obnoxiously laugh at them.
Other than that, I hate the Leafs and their fans. My condolences to NJD82 and all the non-Leafs fans living up in Toronto. I'd wanna lock myself in my house until after they're eliminated if I lived up there.
They've had little to cheer about since the mid-1960's. That last cup team was Johnny Bowers - Terry Sawchuck era (Keon, Mahovolich, Ellis, Armstrong) - a lot of those guys were born in the late 1920's as a point of comparison. I don't begrudge them the pleasure of at this point one damned win against the Caps. They've been wandering the wilderness for so damn long.

Where was this Parise in the playoffs in NJ
