There's a lot less rawness when you expected the team to finish with 75 points at the beginning of the season. I'm different than some people, though.
I was there, I stayed to see the presentation, I watched most of the guys skate the cup, I left my seat and shook some Caps fans hands, I took a shower, I ate some food, and I recalled how I told my girlfriend to not get excited before every game we went to early in the season because "they're not really this good, the bottom will fall out. Just be ready."
The season was more than I could have asked for. I hope we'll get another shot soon.
