Only one game tonight. Who does everyone think the flyers will start in goal?

Boucher has to leave with an injury midway through the 2nd and Bobrovsky is in net for the Flyers. I was sooooo wrong about their revolving door ending this series.

If the B's take a 3-0 lead how uncomfortable will fans in Boston be, lol. They may be hoping for a Flyers win just bc they fear losing another 3-0 lead.

I keed.

I would like to win back some of my cash before I have to pay up tomorrow. I took a big hit taking the Caps in game 1, thinking Tampa would be gassed, having won a Gm 7 on the road then starting a the next series w a rested top seed soon after.

Haven't been able to see much hockey this wk due to work. Someone pick me some winners tonight 

From my understanding Van has dominated so far. Can Nsh and maybe more importantly Rhinne carry the mo to game 3?

Can a reportedly uninspired Crapitols team get done on the road what they couldn't do at home? This is basically a must win. Can they crack the TB D or will the Bolts strangle the life out the craps post season hopes and Brucey B's career in DC?

I think that stuff is way overrated now with the way the playoffs are structured, giving teams at least a day rest before each game.

Nashville and Vancouver is too close to put money on. Actually, i wouldn't put money on any playoff game especially if you have to bet against a spread.

Also, Roloson is playing lights out for the Lightning right now. I think the Caps take one game on the road then lose the series in either game 5 or 6.

Bruins take a two game lead back home too and I have the same prediction about them as i do the Caps and Lightning. Split the next two then Bruins winning the 5th or 6th

That and I don't know that being rested is of any benefit to a team unless they need someone to get healthy. During the regular season, you get into a routine of playing 3-4 games most weeks, so I could see having five days off before Tampa as being a negative for the Caps --- especially when playing a hot team that just won three straight (two on the road) must-win games.

Look at what the long lay off did to Detroit. They've been flat the past 2 games.

Also, if Boohoodreau loses this series I can see him getting canned.

Seems as if the long lay offs only help in the NFL.

It is ruled a goal....

4-3 Tampa with 14:00 left in the game looking to go up 3-0 on the Caps.

Capitals make a big late season push to steal 1st in the east and choke again. So i guess if you beat beat pitt or washington in the first round it's pretty much a guarantee you'll beat the other in the second.

Bruins look to repeat last year and take a 3-0 lead against the flyers...except without the epic collapse this year.
