Post-Game Talk: We don't need no stinkin' heroes - the whole team is made of Game 7 heroes.

LOL. So true.
In a series where the Main Board preliminary thread was littered with Stepan/Richards vs. Ribeiro/Backstrom, Brassard won.

One goal and one assist in seven games.
Brian Boyle had a better stat-line than him in less games.

"Boyle/Dorsett won't have impacts" (Paraphrased) was one of my favorites, though who could have predicted Boyle would have been that good? The whole point of 4th liners is to go out and try to change the momentum of the game.

I posted this last night, on the post game after Hank was interviewed and praised his teammates, Leetch said how classy Hank was and how he never wold say anything like Holtby said.

I really wish Dubinsky was still a part of the team. Dude got a lot of flak around here but he always stuck up for his team mates.

Damn. NBC ripping into Ovechicken. I didn't think he was that bad in the last 5 games. I honestly think that McD/Girardi/God did that good of a job on him.

They ripped in to him for what he said. Ovi once again proving to be a cry baby who can't pin the blame on himself and his team for not showing up and/or producing.

Yeah. The conspiracy for "escrow" was too much.
He did give a lot of credit to Hank.

I think Crosby is one of the only guys he's ever criticized. He attacked a Hab but I don't remember him saying anything bad about him
I noticed several times when shots last night in game 7 were fired the Dmen made it a point to lift Caps sticks and really bump em. The GWG in game 5 both guys were left totally untouched in the crease by Moore and Stralman

It just shows the deep down losing mentality that comes out of playoff performances like this. Getting bounced early can lead to two things: 1.) a lesson that you accept and work to grow with and 2.) A woe is me everything is negative attitude.
You can't let bad officiating, past results (previous games in this series and previous series experiences) and whining influence your play. As much as people don't like Callahan's bland post game interviews after losses, that's how you want your captain to be. You want him to know they didn't perform how they should have and to know that they have the strength to come back and play better next game. Always keep your head up. Hockey is very much a mental game and letting negativity creep into your mind is the worst thing to happen in the playoffs. Unfortunately for the Caps it seems that all their early round exits and whining was very much ruining their psyche for the games. I'd rather have my captain give a boring interview where he says "we weren't good, we need to be better and we will be better tomorrow" than one who will whine about officiating and conspiracies.
Btw, anyone catch Fehr in his postgame interview in that video start by saying Hank wasn't anything special last night? They had 35 shots, a few breakaways and odd-man rushes as well as many point blank opportunities. He was indeed special in games 6 and 7. Fehr was talking like all of their shots were blocked or were unscreened from the outside. If only more players were like Backstrom. No whining, knows he needed to be better.

When do we start constructing the Lundqvist statue in front of the Garden?
Pigeons would not dare to desecrate this statue!
