This is all I'm saying after watching the Caps do a complete fold job in Game 7:
No one expected the Caps to even get out of the 1st round (let alone the 2nd). No one thought Braden Holtby was a NHL-caliber goaltender.
And no one thought we would be treated to 14...count 'em, 14...memorable games from this Caps team.
Now let's have Dale Hunter return as coach, so that we can "Unleash The Fury" yet again upon the rest of the NHL...
Being a lifelong Caps fan--and by that, I mean SINCE THE FRANCHISE BEGAN!!--I guess I needed a place to devote space to writing about them. Oh, and for the record, Joe Beninati coined the title of this blog in describing Ovechkin's sliding-on-his-belly goal a few years ago against Phoenix. Apt description, AIN'T IT?

Load of shit, part 2
Short one.
Braden Holtby, how the fuck dare you allow yourself to wander out of position in overtime to leave an open net?
Because of your stupidity (and yours alone), the Caps now have to go to Boston on Wednesday night to play Game 7.
That's all I have to say.

We're toast. Let's face REALITY, gang.
Let me see if I have this right. The Caps take a 2-0 lead on Carolina, give up 3 unanswered goals, come back in the 3rd period to tie it up...
And Mike Green can't get his stick up to deflect a 2-on-1 break??
I hate to break this to my fellow Caps fans, but...any shot we have at making the Stanley Cup playoffs went bye-bye tonight.
