Hi there Rangers fan here coming in peace. You got Boils name wrong.. if it was on purpose, ok... if not, change it so you don't have people complain i guess?

 

[johan f]

Burakovsky

 

[EHCler]

Send them golfing.

Preassure is on the Rangers tonight, just continue to play honest hockey and we will win the series.

Ovi with game winner.

Wilson scores. Caps win.

 

[stanleycaps18]

I would love to see this be a NEW Caps team and close it out. I am not sure my ticker can take another tight one.

 

[Portable Mink]

The King is dead. Long live the King!

4-1 Caps

Hit hard, hit early, get it deep.
Need Ward to up his physical game for that top line, not getting enough zone time.

Those are all from the Photoshop thread. Credit to IPW and MIG mostly Guys are killing it.

Holtby scores an empty netter tonight...Caps earn much needed rest.

 

[Maruk moustache]

And what a film, Glengarry Glen Ross was. Very good. Let's go Caps.

 

[Backstrom #19]

Just ****ing win.

 

[Backstrom #19]

Caps haven't lost 2 games in a row since mid March. No way they lose 3 straight against the Rangers. Just finish it off tonight boys.

 

[NobodyBeatsTheWiz]

Is this the game when the Caps finally put it all together this series? It happened in game 5 of round 1. Proper forward support on the breakouts and I think we score 4. Hank's been very good, but not unbeatable.

 

[RandyHolt]

Coin flip games continue. I am sure they will come hunker down in our bunker once again. Books have FINALLY adjusted and lowered the O/U to 4.5.

1 steal by Bura, 1 mistake by McDonaugh, and that is the game. PPs are meaningless at this point.

[Pigskin]

as mentioned, to win this game would indeed be the dawn of a new era of Caps



Lets Go Caps !

 

[NoLookPass]

Not asking for much, just score more goals then the raaaaaaaaaaangers.

 

[Midnight Judges]

Just keep doing what you're doing.

 

[KevinM]

I'm curious about how the boys come out tonight, you've gotta think the Rangers will bring it at home in an elimination game. Our depth guys need to match their intensity so they don't get hemmed in all night.

 

[Blades of Steel]

no expectations

As a Caps fan for 30 years, this has to be one of the oddest statements I have seen another Caps fan make.

Of course they can lose 3 in a row, they do it almost annually.

Hoping for one more win, but nothing is guaranteed. The captain needs to play a hell of a lot better than he has in these last 2 games.

 

[LGB51]

Don't let up, hunker down and end this series tonight in NYC, Backstrom with the GWG! Go Caps Go!

The last 30 years has nothing to do with this year's team.

I'm really digging these mash-up avatars
