All it takes sometimes is hot goaltending. The Rangers are not that good but Lundqvist had a hot stick and got in the Caps' heads during the first couple of games. After game 1, we pulled our inconsistent goaltender in favor of the very young AHL rookie and he got in their heads (posted two shut-outs). Tim Thomas had the hot stick in Boston. I'm guessing Hiller got in the Sharks' head and that was all she wrote. If a team can't figure out the goaltender, they'll never recover.
I'm looking forward to the 'Canes - Bruins series. The 'Canes are a hot team and the pathetic Habs didn't do Boston any favors by giving them such an easy series. Boston could be in for a nasty surprise.
Pens - Caps will be good too, if only because of the hate we have for Sindy Crosby. I know the Caps can beat all the teams in the East--we took the series with all the remaining teams. If we make it to the Cup final though, we probably lose--unless it's Detroit. The Caps don't do well against West Coast teams.
