In before Trotz benches Vrana, demotes Stephenson to the fourth line, and puts DSP on the Ovechkin line.If there is one thing the Caps have improved in its speed. Pens made Caps look slow last year.

well fwiw, this is probably the first time the pens are favorites, so maybe that helps caps
Should be another great series!
Since Malkin missed the last game, is he expected to be ready for Game 1? I recall the announcers mentioning yesterday he had a leg injury but they didn't say the extent.
Will Burakovsky make an appearance in this series?
Their all time record vs Penguins in playoffs is abysmalThe law of averages says that eventually the Caps are going to beat the Pens in the playoffs. Hopefully it's not this year, but who knows? If Geno & Hagelin are out or really banged up it'll be tough for the Pens to pull it out.
I am saying Pens in 6 but it could go either way IMO. What I do know is that playing the same teams in the playoffs year after year is getting a little boring.
Why are the Pens the favorites, the Caps are the higher seeded team and have home ice?
I'm a Penguin fan but even from the winning side I'm honestly just so ****ing sick of this match up.
I think this is Washington's year, though (to then get stomped by Tampa or Boston, as would Pittsburgh).
Every year I say the Caps will finally do it and it doesn’t happen. So I’m saying Pens in 6

If the Canucks were finally able to beat Chicago, then Washington definitely has a chance against the Penguins. Holtby just needs to be really really good.God damn it I can't take another series loss to the Pens surely the odds finally have to fall in our favor. Right guys... guys?
