[Euro_Twins 4,476]

You heard it here first folks. Ovechkin with the first ever "Ovechtrick" in Game 7.

He guaranteed a win, and he'll deliver.

So did Babcock

In Game 7s I always go with the team I think will get the best goaltending performance.

Lundqvist > Holtby.

Rangers.

Not according to kuznetsov

When asked about why the Capitals might take Wednesdays decisive game against the Rangers, Evgeny Kuznetsov said it came down to Braden Holtby vs. Henrik Lundqvist and hell take Holtby.

Our goalies better, Kuznetsov said with a laugh. I dont know what you want me to say. Our goalies better.

That is awesome. I hope he's right, but I'm afraid he's not.

I'd love to see Washington win, for more reasons than I care to count.

Rangers will win !

[RedWingsRox 614]

I don't see his quote as a 'guarantee', blowing things up. Media making it into a big deal. All players play with positive mindset, confidence, and vision of winning. If that was a guarantee, then 80% of pro athletes 'guarantee' a win.

Why is this game on Wednesday?

[jimmyemeryhunter 2,747]

Why is this game on Wednesday?

Because for some reason the schedule this year is crazy, how often do teams have back to backs during playoffs?

Pretty much my thoughts exactly.. I don't think holtby is better.. but, he could be on just this night. Either team can win this game though, that's for sure.

Hardly ever, unless you're the Red Wings in the 2009 Finals.

Why does round 2 feel so long and draggy ??? Should have played tonight and settle both series.

[frankgrimes 1,836]

Tampa started a great job, the Rangers and King Henrik will finish it tonight !

Stammer versus king Henrik & Nash that's a freaking great ECF

4 years and two ECF appearances and that with a team that had no defense, goaltending till the Captain took over.

May the best team win. I like both of them.

[marcaractac 3,963]

This is gonna be a good one

[puckloo39 5,686]

Rangers anthem singer just killed it.. wow, he's good. I think a good anthem = a win. Rangers got this...

[RedWingsRox 614]

If NYR win ... interesting story line with Callahan and St. Louis! But let's see what happens tonight first.

Along with the Bolts having Boyle and Strallman as well

[DatsyukianDekes 2,428]

Ovi is simply amazing!

[amato 3,210]

1/9 of the way there. #ovechtrick #webelieve

How do you have that much talent and can't score on a bloody power play?

[frankgrimes 1,836]

Hayes such a great deflection

[e_prime 1,936]

Green with consecutive penalties :39 apart. In a Game 7 ...and yet we're clamoring for him here in Detroit.

Live in NYC would love to continue rooting for a "home team" vs. think Trotz (Ovi? Whatevs.) deserves to get a cup. ...cue some Natalie Imbruglia.

Yea because that automatically negates all the positive about Green....
