Round 1 is complete. Great hockey so far. Round 2 starts tonight, meaning I'll be standing in front of the TV yelling at it. Caps gotta get through the Pens to move on. (Haven't done it in years) The Golden Knights have played great all season, but I don't know if they're gonna be able to keep up that intensity and stay healthy. I'm pulling for them and their smash mouth style. [popcorn]
Caps/Pens
Jets/Predators
Sharks/Knights
Bruins/Lightning
Caps scored while typing this. [clap]
It's almost May.
Ice sports should be done. ;D
Eat some prunes and take a nap. :-*
[bang] Caps owned game 1, then boom! Pens own these guys.

Bite me you old make the beast with two backs.
[laugh]
Knights came out on fire like I figured and they're all over the Sharks. If you haven't seen them play this season.....'Check it', they're for real. Gotta stay healthy.
Man! I hope someone was watching that VGK/SJ game. [clap]
TB jumped on the Bruins early tonight and didn't look back.
SJ is jumping all over VGK.
Lightning moved on to the next round beating the Bruins and the Vegas Golden Knights beat the Sharks.
Caps/Pens
Predators/Jets
WSH and WPG lead their series 3-2
Caps finally beat the Pens to advance. Last time they did it, gas was $1.01 and it was at the original arena in Landover Md. [clap] [clap] [clap]
Predators force a game 7. [clap]
This goal by Forsberg the other night was awesome. [bow_down]

Come on Preds! [popcorn]
Jets are moving on. Preds looked flat at home tonight.
Pekka Rinne gave a pretty humbling post game interview. If that doesn't make the room dusty, you ain't a sports fan.
VGK is 1 game away from playing for the cup. Man! these guys are fun to watch. I don't think the Jets are gonna go away quietly.
VGK moves on to play for, The Stanley Cup in their expansion year. [clap] [clap]
Caps face elimination tonight. If they win I'll never survive game 7. [popcorn]

They poached the best players and/or draft picks from every team in the NHL. This isn't some amazing come from behind feel good story. It's an unfair advantage story.
But still great hockey to watch.
Incase anyone is interested in how an expansion draft works.

This game tonight is wide ass open. [bow_down]

Correction. In case anyone is interested in how the 2017 expansion draft worked. Unlike any previous draft. The 500M the owner paid off the NHL with surely helped.
Like I said, fun hockey to watch.
Caps played well tonight, so game 7 here we come.

It's not like they drafted multiple star players at every position. They did get some talent, but everyone has great talent. They were 500-1 odds at the beginning of the season.
Game 7 tonight. Nerve wracking sons of pregnant doges. [popcorn]
I hope Wilson beats Coburn's ass again tonight. Bullshit play. I could hardly wait for them to get out of the penalty box. [clap]
Game 6 the Caps played great. Tonight was a masterful performance. make the beast with two backsing finally. We haven't been since 98. Enjoy the next day or so, then get down to business, VGK ain't no joke. [clap] [clap] [clap]
Hi5's on Caps, and yeah, good luck with those Knights...
Ok boys & girls, Game 1 in Vegas is getting ready to start. I've been pulling for VGK throughout the playoffs as well as the Caps. LETS GO CAPS!!! This has potential to be a great series. [popcorn]
They were both Wide Open tonight. Oh and the opening ceremony was pretty damn impressive.
6-4 VGK
I'm never gonna survive this series. Holtby's save with 2:00 left in the 3rd was simply ridiculous. Damn!! What a game.
Caps 3-2

I thought the puck just vanished when watching in real time. [bow_down] [bow_down] [bow_down]
I'm with you brother. I came flying out of my chair. It was out of control in real time. I've rewatched it 20-50 times and I have no clue how he reacted that fast. He was all the way to the left of the crease then POW! Like a cat.

Caps dominated tonight. The hiccup by Holtby was all him. [clap]
3-1 Caps
Caps lit home ice up tonight. Jumped on VGK early and often. Things got a little chippy late in the 3rd.
6-2 Caps [popcorn]
Heading back to Vegas.
YESSSSSSSS!!!! Caps win The Stanley Cup. Congratulations! VGK had a great season as well.
4-3 Caps
Greatest team sport period. I just listened to multiple interviews and every single one of those guys were as humble a man as could be.
Hi5's to Caps & their fans!
