Nobody despises the Rangers more than I do, but they gave the Caps all they wanted in the first round. It was mostly due to Lundqvist, but Washington had to work for everything they got...plus they got a HUGE break by having Callahan out.

So the Flyers and Caps are now in deep holes. Coming back from 0-2 when the two games were roadies is hard enough; coming back when both losses were at home seems nearly impossible.

Yeah, at least the Wings have home ice, but they better get this next one for sure.

I really hope Draper or Modano make an appearance tomorrow. Throw one of them in rather than Miller or Eaves even. No quit in Draper.

Really, it's just shocking the Caps have completely imploded in the playoffs.

I'd think the Eastern Conference team that makes the finals will just be fodder for the Canooges or the Sharks.
