Ha, yes. I'm sure many feel that way. I do to at times - which is why I try to and do enjoy the reg season.Sadly I am at the point in my Caps fandom where I just want a 50 goal season or a Rocket for Ovechkin. Anything else is gravy.
At any rate, wherever they finish this season, as long as below EC #1, they'll have less pressure on them compared to being reg season champs.
They'll still be lots of pressure, just less. Let the Bolts or the haughty Leafs fans deal with great expectations !
