Playoffs Recap: Day 6

What a night! Sporting my Bruins shirt I watched the exciting match up with the Sabres. The Bruins started their physical play in game 2 and it definitely seems to be working for them. The Sabres fell in a 2-1 game.
The Kings came back at the Canucks breaking the series tie and now leading 2-1.
But the big story though was the Capitals annihilating win over the Canadiens. 5-1.. 5 TO 1! Four of which were scored in the second period by Knuble, Laich, Fehr and Ovechkin and Bradley in the third. Ovechkin had the best goal of the night with a lightning fast one-timer. It also gets the 'OH MY GOD HOW ADORABLE' award for Nick Backstrom's reaction to it.
Here's the video:

Why are hockey players so darn cute? Ovi looks like a kid on that ice!
Be sure to watch tonight as the Blackhawks take on the Predators in Nashville and Pittsburgh continue their take on the Senators!

Playoffs Recap: Day 4

The Capitals have tied the series at 1-1!!!! What a comeback! At one point they were down 4-1 and they came back! John Carlson gets our # 1 star spot, tying the game nearly two minutes before regulation ended and a big WOOO to Nicklas Backstrom who won it in OT 31 seconds in!!!!!
All we need now is a win by the Blackhawks tomorrow and the world will once again be aligned!!

Also tonight the Bruins beat the Sabres in a 5-3 game and the Kings tied the series with a win over Vancouver.
GO CAPS!

Tomorrow's Schedule

Brooksy Wins it for Caps in OT!

He is officially back! Brooks Laich scored the OT winning goal in last nights game against the Bruins.
Supporting goals: Nicklas Backstrom and Mike Knuble.
Be sure to tune in tonight and watch the Capitals take on Sidney Crosby and the Penguins.

Brooksy is Back!

Looks like Brooksy was all the Caps needed to get back in their game. With Brooks on the ice, behind a cage of course, the Caps beat the Thrashers 2-1 Thursday night at home with goals from Nicklas Backstrom and Matt Bradley. 

No score from Ovechkin in this game. Ovi better pick it up because Steven Stamkos has tied him and both have the second most goals in the NHL behind Sidney Crosby's 47.Weird considering the Lightning are doing even worse than the Panthers. Must be pretty frustrating for Stamkos.

Tickets for playoff games are already on sale! Be sure to visit the Capitals website for more information.  

Tonight I will be at the Rangers @ Panthers game so news on that tomorrow. Hopefully the Cats can reciprocate what they did with the Bruins and win again. 

Rock The Red!
