Before this series started I thought Vegas had it in 5. Now looking the otherway. The Caps hit an entirely different level in this series. They didn't look this good against the Pens.

Agreed.
Caps look like they are on another level. They are swarming the net and Vegas seems powerless to stop them.

Already gearing up for game 5. I’d love to see the Caps hoist the Cup at home, but today will do just fine, thanks!
VGK is by no means out of it; I just see something in the Caps this year.

You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.

So Devante Smith-Pelley decides to flap his pie-hole. He won’t show up to the WH to celebrate the Cup if the Caps win. What a slug.
“LAS VEGAS -- Count out Devante Smith-Pelly if the Washington Capitals win the Stanley Cup and are invited to the White House to celebrate with President Donald Trump.
"The things that he spews are straight-up racist and sexist," Canada's Postmedia quoted Smith-Pelly as saying Wednesday as the Capitals prepared for Game 5 against the Vegas Golden Knights. "Some of the things he's said are pretty gross. I'm not too into politics, so I don't know all his other views, but his rhetoric I definitely don't agree with. It hasn't come up here, but I think I already have my mind made up."
Smith-Pelly, one of two black Capitals players, is from the Toronto area. He spoke two days after Trump canceled the Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles' visit to the White House, and a day after NBA stars LeBron James and Steph Curry both said they wouldn't visit.“

Meh...hopefully President Trump ends this "tradition". IDGAS that a championship team goes to the White House, though in the Caps' case, it would be just down the street. Smith-Pelley, Mr. hyphenated , can eat shit. I'm sure many thought the same about Tim Thomas when the B's won the cup in 2011 when Onumb-nutz was occupying our White House.

Insane. This is outside where the Capitals play. The game is being played in Vegas tonight.
Crazy. Happy for the team I've followed since Langway played without a helmet.

Yes but Backstrom's passing makes that play possible. He's so good at making passes you would think where imposable.

Congrats to the Caps, I'm happy for Ov. Both teams had a great season, wish it would have gone a couple more, but still a good series.
