ECF Game 7: Washington Capitals @ Tampa Bay Lightning | 8 PM ET | CBC, SN1, TVAS, NBCSN

[Captain And Coke]

Holtby with the shutout and Ovi with the GWG. Fitting end to an awesome series.

Congratulations Capitals!!!

I'm not a Guins or a Ning fans. I'm completely unbiased and I say it was a good clean hit and the officials agree.

Your posts say otherwise "he hockey world needs a Tampa win tonight. We need a team that we can actually root for in the finals."

Nope..

 

[deadinthewater]

I've never seen someone so happy.

 

[amethyst]

Washington is the team of DESTINY. Go get that cup!!!

 

[Atas2000]

So happy the real lightning are on display. Fake tough guys led by Kucherov who disappeared and shelled up when punched right in the mouth. Kudos to the caps and GL in the finals

So salty.

 

[Aoko]

Congrats Washington. Go win the Cup.

Do our conference proud.

See you in October, Bolts.

 

[JCRO]

at least much respect to the bolts fans who have stuck around to see their team off for a pretty good season unlike the bruins fans that emptied the arena faster than the speed of light

I’m so glad to see you’re still salty.

This just made my night.

Congrats to the caps!

Go get that cup Ovie!

 

[KCC]

Wow Tampa’s fans aren’t even cheering their team for reaching it this far lol

 

[PromisedLand]

Congratulations Caps fans. Well deserved!!!!

About the same amount of times you’ve contributed something intelligent, informative or insightful to HF.

Yet, you compared Raef Lafrenz to a guy who is an all rookie first teamer....

Congrats to the Caps! Better team, won this series. Was pulling for the Bolts but am super happy for Ovy finally getting to the ECF.

 

[Drakon]

They were blocking shots up 3 with 6 minutes left to go. That tells you everything you need to know about how badly this team wants a cup.

 

[Chairman Maouth]

Post series talk open.

 

[saffronleaf]

wow stamkos looks dazed. imagine if he signed in Toronto! he'd be skewered.

 

[canuckster19]

Lets not overlook one thing, Barry Trotz is in the final

 

[Del Preston]

why on earth would tampa touch that puck. Just let that clock run out and get out of there

To improve their PK stats.

Tampa is lifeless as my wife in bed 3 years into marriage.

It becomes a bad contract after 3 years. Dump and rebuild.

No ring - UFA
Ring - RFA

Actually, I do. I also like the Lighting.

That being said, their model isn't going anywhere. With the talent they have it's obvious to me that Yzerman doesn't have what it takes to put them over the top.

Maybe he falls in love with his players? Maybe he likes hearing how great he is without actually accomplishing anything of merit in terms of Cups won.

I never said he wasn't a good GM. He is. He just might be better at building a team then actually being a GM who can build a Cup winning team.

He is probably the most pro-active GM in the league. If you watched the game tonight, you would've seen one team that suffers from poor coaching and one that plays the right way when it actually matters.
