A possible rare sweep. Islanders gave a better series. These Canadians suck
My Capitals would have beat you if we didn't have to start our 4th string goalie in the playoffs. Maybe excuses are for ####### anyway. Good luck. Enjoy the win whether it's tonight or 3 games from now!!!!!!!

I actually saw the Capitals in there expansion season so I've been there all along. Back then they didn't do what the did for the Vegas Knights and basically let all the other teams in the league protect one player and give them the top 30 picks in the draft. The Vegas team would have had to screw up really bad not to suck and they still haven't won a Stanley Cup.

Tonight is the night. Back to back and doing it at home will be special.

From title and OP, was hoping to see a pic of Glenn wearing a tin-foil hat, playing golf on a mountain during a tropical storm.

Not a huge hockey fan but I will always root for anything America over anything from anywhere else.

Here's a trivia question's answer for you fans: No Canadian team has taken the Stanley Cup back home since 1993. Hell, Canada is becoming the Indiana of hockey. Go Lightning. Keep the streak alive.

Their government guaranteed they would at least make the conference finals this year.

LOL. Sounds like the tepid, weak-*** pronouncement of a half-a-socialist government headed by a silly fop.
Here's what America says to that:

Actually, I am serious. By banning crossing the border. The NHL did it differently this year. They broke the teams down geographically except for the Canadian teams. They had 4 divisions of 8, 8 ,8 and then the 7 Canadian teams. In the regular season and first 2 rounds of the playoffs you only played the teams in your own division. So Canada was guaranteed a team in the conference finals.
Their travel was a lot worse though. Especially compared to the eastern teams. They had a very compressed travel schedule whereas the Canadian division went from Montreal to Vancouver.

I don't think the referees should be able to call a penalty on 1 team and then embellishment on the other. Embellishment should only be called if there was no penalty.

Definitely want Tampa to win it at home after Canada refused to let the Tampa family members come due to “covid.” 🤦‍♂️

The last time the Habs won the Cup, it was against Gretzky’s Kings. That’s how long ago it has been. Granted, a Canadian team has made the finals in 04, 06, 07, and 11. But still haven’t won it.

It’s not completely unlikely that the Rays could win the World Series (probably not though). That would make for a hell of a run by the city.
Baseball used to be far and away my favorite sport. I would watch spring training games on WGN. Then they canceled the World Series and tried to make up for it by turning every game into a home run derby. I just looked up when the Devil Rays started and realized I haven't given a crap about baseball since before the Devil Rays started playing.

I’ll never understand why it took so long for Tampa to have an MLB team. Florida has always been baseball crazy.
