M1. Washington Caps vs W2. Philadelphia Flyers

Recommended Posts

Just turned to game on. Can't believe it's this close and Philly is on the verge of getting back into the series.


I'm getting nervous if I'm a Caps fan.

Yep. Looked like a sweep, but now the history of choking is starting to rear it's head.

A lot of choking going on in the 1st round...

Teams like Washington, St. Louis and San Jose have a lot of demons to overcome in their franchise history. That's tough to do. Teams like Chicago and LA who have championship pedigrees are always tough to put away.

Actually, it looks like everyone is tough to put away except for the team Kenny assembled.

But you're forgetting, they took the eventual Stanley Cup champions and Finalists to seven games in 2013 and 2015, so there's no need to change anything.

Have the Flyers done anything right in this series to deserve to be in game 6?

Apparently more than we did as they forced a game 6, however that might be. Besides, they're underdogs and I wouldn't mind them giving Washington the shakes by forcing a game 7.

They didn't force jack. Their goalie has been bailing them out the entire series. They're averaging even less GPG than the Wings did.

I would call that forcing another game. Obviously you don't. By that same logic Mrazek didn't force Tampa to 7 games last season. It was an illusion, or at least something else than force according to you.
