DETROIT in 5 4. Anaheim vs 5. Nashville.... ANAHEIM in 6 As much as it kills me not to pick my Caps to win it all... I've Got PHILLY beating DETROIT for The Cup. The Flyers don't have the goaltending and a very slow defense I don't think they can win it all. If Vancouver can make quick work of Chicago they should be in the finals along with the Caps. I have a feeling the Caps have been playing possum all year and so has Ovi. Their biggest problem is also in net, who of the 3 potential starters do you go with?

I have a feeling the Caps have been playing possum all year and so has Ovi. Their biggest problem is also in net, who of the 3 potential starters do you go with? Having 3 goalies is a positive thing. I feel pretty good about the Capitals' goaltending. I'm pretty sure Neuvirth will be in net the whole way. Goal scoring is what worries me. A healthy Mike Green could be the difference in the first round. As far as the Flyers go... I just think they will wear all their opponents down. They play well as a team. And for the Red Wings... The playoffs is when they start to play their best hockey. It seems as though they just have a switch that they can turn on whenever they want. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I hope the whole Caps-Rangers series isn't like game one though I'm pretty sure it will be ... I'm drained. I wouldn't be surprised to see a couple more overtime games. It also wouldn't surprise me if every game is decided by 1 goal. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Glad the Caps and Ranger play opposite nights then the Canadians and Bruins. I think that will be a great series. If the Caps get eliminate I'll be pulling for Montreal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LV KIX Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 A couple series down: Washington won over the NY Rangers 4 games to 1. Detroit swept Phoenix in a boring series 4 games to none. --- A couple more series could wrap up within the next day or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zrock63 Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 Seems like the Flyers peaked too early this year, I HAVE A FEELING THEY MIGHT BE DONE BY TONIGHT... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LV KIX Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 Seems like the Flyers peaked too early this year, I HAVE A FEELING THEY MIGHT BE DONE BY TONIGHT... Yeah... I know what that's like... The Capitals do that all the time. I really though the Flyers would cruise in their series. Though from the point of view from a Caps fan I'm kind of glad they didn't. Even if they win in 7 it could take a toll on them the rest of the way. Buffalo is actually the team I wanted the Caps to face in round one... Maybe they will meet in round two instead.
