Capitals Rally in Second

I was guilty of not believing. Shame on me!

It was looking bad for a while there. Caps still need to step it up in the 3rd to have a chance!

I actually still believed, and I am a natural born pessimist

my belief faultered...bad me!

I am continually amazed by the resiliency of this team. PLEASE keep up the cycling...the Flyers can't deal with it. And stay outta the box!

Love the Flyers fans booing...it's music to my ears!

i believed tarik!! ok, sort of. i hope no flyer fans want to talk about diving now. upshall has been doing the bobblehead routine all series. you could see morrison say "nice dive" in the box. i like them coming out 4 on 4 with new ice and well rested. looks like the wiz could use some caps comeback mojo too...

This third peirod needs to be the best peirod of hockey they have played this year.... anything less and I don't think we will have a game 7

Not me..but I love it...I think I'm having a heart attack! Way to go Backie and Semin.

Not me..but I love it...I think I'm having a heart attack! Way to go Backie and Semin.

I'm calling it...Ovie GWG in the 3rd!!

i smell...snif snif..ov scores game winning goal, puts glove to ear to hear the boos ala in buffalo. i'm rubbing my tix for tomorrow night for good luck....

Leeguru:
What's Ovie the Bobblehead saying now??

matt:
Are you in Afganistan?

Caps are playing HARD - they can SO take this!! :-D Who's ready to rock the red tomorrow?!?

First here...Ovie GWG in the 3rd!!

Caps definitely have advantage entering the third, at least mentally. Just don't relax, boys, be as tough as you can.

C-A-P-S CAPS CAPS CAPS!!!!

@ Cap Fan 1

Great call on OV with the big one and the ensuing glove to the ear a la Buffalo. That would rock! Even though I'm relegated to listening out in Illinois. Need some 4 on 4 mojo!

i cant think straight enough to write something coherent. Pi$$ed that Mogulus went technicolor on me though....ugh !!

It is in the cake.

Huddled over the internet radio broadcast in Illinois it was admittedly tough after the 2nd goal. But I kept thinking, if we can just get one... Gotta love that Backs and Semin are really stepping up! (At least that's what it sounds like.) Let's get it during the 4 on 4. Sure wish I could see the dive that everyone's talkng about...

Tarik I've got a Caps contingent that wanted to give up down here in Florida after Briere's goal. I played ice hockey for 8 years growing up and momentum can turn on a dime no matter what level of hockey regular season or playoffs. They're going nuts but there is still 20 minutes left.

KEEP IT UP. DON'T LET OFF THE GAS. COME OUT IN THE THIRD AND EXACT CAPITAL PUNISHMENT ON THIS PHILADELPHIA TEAM.

*claps and stomps* LET'S GO CAPS LET'S GO CAPS LET'S GO CAPS LET'S GO CAPS LET'S GO CAPS LET'S GO CAPS LET'S GO CAPS LET'S GO CAPS

First PHilly goal - lucky bounce and no excuse for Briere to skate in between four skaters and get that pass. GET AGGRESSIVE ON THE PENALTY KILL. Stay out of that passive box crap. ATTACK ATTACK ATTACK ATTACK

Keep pounding them, Caps. DO NOT RELAX FOR A SECOND!!!

Biron looks like a closer with the bases loaded, no one out...

Keep pounding them, Caps. DO NOT RELAX FOR A SECOND!!!

YESSSS!

Please, for the love of God, noone talk about tomorrow. The Flyers are going to come out hard since "it's their game 7" like the announcers said. Just concentrate on 1 period.

Awesome second period.

I hate to bring up the negatives but... I wish something brings back our Ovie. He's a ghost out there. Not even hitting the way he used to, and missed two point blank opportunities :(

UNBELIEVABLE!!!!

C-A-P-S CAPS CAPS CAPS!!!!

Believe!!! nadir, I'll buy you a whole freaking sheet cake for tomorrow!! As long as you agree to share with Lapin & Backs.

OVIE! Way to go.

Ovie scores!!!!!!!!

UNBELIEVABLE!!!!

attack ...attack attack.........hit anything in orange...make them bleed to red...

OMG! OV! OK, MVP PERIOD!

GO CAPS!!

attack ...attack attack.........hit anything in orange...make them bleed to red...

GO CAPS!!

Ovechkin scores the third goal and the go-ahead goal. LOOK OUT. Keep it on. :)

Jonathan

nadir,
I'll buy you a whole freaking sheet cake for the next game! As long as you promise to share it with Lapin, Backs, Ovie, and the rest of the boys.

Let's go Caps!!!!

i smell...snif snif..ov scores game winning goal, puts glove to ear to hear the boos ala in buffalo. i'm rubbing my tix for tomorrow night for good luck....

WHA?!?!?!?! GOOOOOOOAAAALLLLLLLL

god damnit, why do we want them to tie this?

No need for the sheet...just one piece.

Caps need to get a goal on the PP to get a 2 spot. I don't like being a goal down with them pulling the goalie.

STAY OUT OF THE BOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ugh bad penalties.......

Good penalty kill!

What are the symptoms of a heart attack?..Go CAPS!!!!

How about Semin with an insurance goal?

How about a PP goal? Green?

hey a bench penalties on filthy!?

my last post was submitted before the period started...i hope i'm right...

Ryv, just cheering for the Caps is a symptom. Other than that, bad chest pressure, numb arms, etc...

Time for another Washington Capitals.....POWER PLAY!!!

The Stekel line is playing well out there. The are humping and getting to the pucks.

Flyers seem a little tired. Caps need to start taking the body a little more.

we need a breather goal...so we can all breathe!!!!!

MONEY

WOW, OVIE...how about a hat trick?

YEEEEEESSSSS! AO!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OVIE AGAIN!

BREATHE!!!!!!!!

MAMMA MIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
O-V-E-C-H-K-I-N!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do not sit back...attack ....attack...ATTACK

Ovie scores again!!!!!!Conn Smythe?

Finally, THEY get a too many men on the ice, and OVIE scores!!!

WE WANT WINGS!!!!!!!!

For those of us relegated to listening... I'm guessing the OV IS BACK! ! !

Now I can gloat over the Flyer fans in my midst!!!

Where are all the Flyers trolls commenting on how bad we suck now?

Ovie's the greatest player on the planet. Caps in 7! MVP MVP MVP

lucky non-call on Huet...

Yesterday at 3:34pm I posted my prediction of an Ovie hat trick today.

Still sticking by my prediction. :-)

Holy. Crap.

I swear, I have replayed the HD slo-mo replay and I still cannot see the puck in between the time Ovie shoots and the time it hits the net.

Holy. Crap.

lets play in there end

Keep pouring it on guys!!!!

Ovie is back :) FINALLY!!!

How pathetic some Flyers fans leaving with 9 minutes to go. Oh I get it, they have to rush home to whine on our boards...

OK. Will all the trolls please just go away. Go insult Geno/Cindy or Ilya Kovalchuk on the Pens or Thrash boards (thrash boards??). Pull down your pants and have at it with the Avery demeaning of Brodeur on YouTube.

OV rules.

Let's go CAPS !!!

Boston is down 0-3 with 3 minutes to go. Too bad - they had a valiant come back! They should be proud, regardless.

We need the Delorian...time needs to move faster

i have to say again - why the f*ck hasn't eminger played this year??? he has been MUCH better than schultz.... come on...! what the heck did he do???? some caps insider spill the beans man....

Thanks for the visuals (mauree, strongbad) on Flyers troll fans exiting and OV's shot. Love the help when exhiled in the midwest with no video recourse. GO CAPS!

Flyers fans over on the Flyers main site are bailing on the team and saying that they will lose the series.

Then that talk about how all the Caps fans down here are "band-wagon" fans.

lolz

If the Flyers are tired today; they better rest up for tomorrow.

Worried about Greenie and Poti......

Boo, Habs just scored too...

The trolls have crawled back under their bridges ...

Hey! I'm actually watching Comcast - as I'm sure many of you are - but for those that have not, have Versus gotten off their knees about the Flyers yet? NBC was bad enough, and probably the most pathetic coverage I've ever seen.

What a game so far.

5:00 and counting.

just hang on...

JMU:
Poor Bruins ... never thought I'd say that!! ;-)

I'm gonna drink some Vodka in honor of the great Ovie! Gotta love the crushin' Russian

anyone have any fave Flyers boards we can go agitate on?

Who will be there tomorrow night? I will...it will be Rockin'

I didnt feel bandwagon when me and my fiancee went to the Cap Centre to watch Al Iafrete, Kenny Sabourin and Sylvain Cote; or when I took the family to the MCI to watch stalwarts Kip Miller and Joel Kwiatkowski. I guess I'm bandwagon now, AND LOVING IT !!!!!!1

HA HA HA HA

Mike:
I'm SO there and will be rockin'!! :-D Anyone notice that Joe and Craig are rockin' the red, too?!?

Boo!, Oh, I know how you feel. I always root for the underdog if I don't have a preference. And I kinda wanted to see the Habs get knocked out, just for Huet.

Iafrate.....

Au Revoir, Monsieur Brier

This is a beautiful thing!!! The boos are music to my ears - sing on, boo birds!! :-D LET'S GO CAPS!!!!!

Wow!!!!

Where can I get tickets for tomorrow's game 7?! Will Ticketmaster be releasing tickets? Important to get Caps fans in the stands

GO CAPS GO!!!!!!!! WHAT A WIN!

WOOOO HOOOO OOOOO VEEEE & THE CAPS ! ! !

Will be stopping and getting the same dinner tomorrow on my way home from work.

There were tickets on Ticketmaster at the beginning of the game - try now, now, now!!!

WOW!

I am so fing psyched! VC is going to be rockin! I wish I could be there. Great job by the guys. Ovie is a machine.

Oh and

choc. cake > yellow cake

incredible, just incredible.

I'll be in the arena for game 7 if I have to come in through the roof.

*cough, cough* I think I'm coming down with something that will keep me from going to work tomorrow night. :-D I must have caught a dreadful case of Gocapsitis.

Ahh!!!! I'm so excited!!!!!!

Let's go Caps!!!

nadir:
LOL!! :-) Get enough cake for everyone, including the Caps - LET THEM EAT CAKE!!! :-D

See you all tomorrow night. I can't tell you how glad I am to be able to say that!

TARIK....enjoy the ride back listening to the flyers fans whining ........and whining.......and of course choking on a cheese steak

The Flyer fans aren't booing, they're chanting:

HUUUUUUUUUUU EEEEEET

DSB

Oneal

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rg2EiSBZ6Y

No time to celebrate.

We have a game 7 to win.

Did someone call Dale Hunter, get that sweater down from the rafters, if nothing else at least get him in the building.

was guilty of not believing. Shame on me!

Posted by: Kurt | April 21, 2008 8:46 PM

Ditto

I loved it on Ovies goal that Biron ended up in the net. All the momentum coming from Ovie messed with the energy fields and pushed him in. Let's go Caps!

in the words of the late great jack buck...SEE YOU TOMORROW NIGHT!

I believe! Game 7 here we come...

...we're not done yet.

Game 7 baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You could feel the shift during game 4, the Flyers felt it too. The Caps discovered they could play playoff hockey (ref's sucked). We were the better team the last three games.

Не прекращайте верить

(Don't stop believing.)

WOW! LETS GO CAPITALS!

To hell with my wife...I want to be Mrs. Ovechkin!!!

I got 2 for tomorrow.. nose bleeds here I come...

Part of my post following the Game 5 victory:

"I have my tickets for Game 7. Can't wait for this tilt. Monday night Alex will score his second and third playoff goals and lead the Caps to victory!

Go Caps!"

Great game boys. Do we get Pittsburgh or the Rangers if we advance?

Steve:
You're right - they may be young and inexperienced, but they learn fast! They have definitely figured out how to play playoff hockey.

Alex just said (with a big smile) that it loves it when they boo him - HA!!! Guess the Flyers fans helped us tonight!! ;-)

That's it. I'm going to visit Russia for my next vacation.

Eminger +3 17min. Nice.

TJ2... no speak of our next opponent until we have one guaranteed....

Well the only thing worse than being a winner living in Philly is being a loser living in Philly! Did you hear those no class idiots BOOING?? After finishing last last year, they should have given that team a standing ovation. I will cheer for the Caps, no matter what tomorrow night and I expect all to do so with me. Win or lose this has been a great team! But I do think we win tomorrow, why would the Flyers even bother for that bunch of pricks? Like I said, if you lived in Philly you would be pissed about it too! My God I would rather cut my wrists!

Cardiac Caps deliver AGAIN!!!!! Tomorrow night is gonna be NUTS! I can't wait ... man, it's gonna be hard to work tomorrow. LET'S GO CAPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@ King Huet

Here's more dap for you. You told me Caps had momentum after Game 4. I scoffed. You were right. Big ups to you.

Hey All!

I've been running back and forth from Greaveys and Velocity 5 between periods here in Falls Church all night. Don't ask.

Yeah Boys!!!

The Crushin' Russian. I like it. What a great ring!

Lets Go Cap-I-Tals!!!

briere will be mrs. ovechkin by the end of tomorrow night. go caps

I think tonight I'll doze off, with a big smile, reading today's game Flyers' blog

Great game boys. Do we get Pittsburgh or the Rangers if we advance?

Posted by: TJ2 | April 21, 2008 9:50 PM

Get the Pens.

WHAT A GREAT GAME!!! WAS AT BUGSY'S AND THE PLACE WAS GOING NUTS!!!! THREE WORDS FOR YOU:

DALE HUNTER FLASHBACK

GOOOOOO CAAAAPS! OV IS BACK!

Great comeback from two goals down. All four of the Caps' goals were terrific! Happy to see Ovie get his second playoff game winner and the insurance goal, too.

Those Flyers fans were wonderful! They wanted to spare their team the embarassment of seeing their fans watching the rest of their loss, so they left 9 minutes early.

Game 7!!
Yeah, baby!!
Let's go Caps!!!

Watched the game in sports bar in the ATL w/ no sound. Is Poti OK? Could not tell if he made it back on the ice.

3 Stars

1. OV
2. Huet
3. Richards

OK, WTF? Either Semin or Backis deserves over Richards. Is there a rule that the team with the most punks has to get a star? Puhleaze....

I called it...OVIE with the GWG! I wish i'm in DC now

Damn...
unbelievable...
wild...
OUTSTANDING!!!!
I'm spent...
Just wish I had Tix for tomorrow...
Just imagine what THAT will be like...

The Caps SHOULD -- I stress should -- win this series now. I never thought it would get to this point after that crushing 2OT loss in Game 4, but here the Caps are. Glad to say I was wrong.

Poti update please

Poti is fine... he continued to play.

Yeah, what's up with the Flyer fans leaving 9 minutes early? I thought they were the super fans? Way to give up on your team.

The booing was nice, too.

Looking forward to tomorrow.

Thanks Caps!!!!!!

I'm going to go iron my Semin jersey, now....

thanks

Another three words for you:

FLYERS CHOKING DOGS.

(feels so good to be mentioning the Caps in the same breath)

Wow, it really IS 1988 over again(?) We can only hope! Best yet, the rally occurred in Game 6!

Here's hoping for a whitewash like the Habs pasted on the Bruins tonight in their game 7.

ROCK THE RED, BABY!

repost from earlier...

If I go to Summers, I'll be there at 6:30... I'll need a couple vicodin...

No prayer Leeguru... my last 2 were met with losses.

Here is a Haiku

Briere can eat ice
OVie gets two goals tonight
Coming back to DC

Posted by: JSchon | April 21, 2008 1:00 PM

Great predictions RIT & Caps Fan1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Loved the chants Johnathan
LETS HAVE DALE HUNTER SING THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER TUESDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GO CAPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gee, looks like I'm gonna pile a few more miles on this-here bandwagon...

Wish I could've seen tonight's game on TV. I listened to the radio feed over the Internet while watching the Wizards. I would've much preferred to see the Caps because the Wizards aren't worth anyone's time or money at this point. You think Philly is a choke dog? Watch the Wizards. That's the true essence of choking.

But I can't wait for tomorrow night's game. Vs. is going to show that one on TV.

Flyers Suck!!!!!!!!!!

Here trollie, trollie, troll ... ;-)

That...was awesome.

I did not believe in the 2nd. But they came through. Wow.

See everyone tomorrow night at the Phone Booth!!! Rock the Red!

1> we will hear from a teary "the man" again.

2> These guys have figured out playoff hockey (and a lot faster than the team the winner of tomorrow's game will face).

3> Backs and Sasha are tearing it up and pulling pressure off Ovechtank.

4> Ovechtank is scoring now that he's only being double covered.

5> Youth is an advantage in back to back games 6 & 7.

6> THIS IS GONNA BE GOOD!

7> I'm putting some game 7 tickets in my wallet and going to bed...tomorrow's gonna be a long day.

By the way, I jumped up and smashed my living room chandelier when OV scored on the breakaway. Glass showered down all over my boss's pork chop (he was over watching the game). But it's all worth it.

@Colin

I did feel it that way, but I didn't like the third period of the last game. So all of a sudden I was not sure. And then comes awesome goal by Backstrom. What a great player for years to come. He is as good as both Alexes (not ot mentions Green, this kid is superior). After that goal Fleyrs were cooked.

IF they bring this game intensity for tomorrow, Flyers will be smoked.

The future is bright!

Sorry guys, I was so nervous tonight, I could not blog and watch. WHAT A GAME, at least from the mid point on.

I know we need to win another but any word on when tix for 2nd Round go on sale? If we win, we play the Pens and they infiltrate our building more than the Flyers fans.

As soon as I am able, I am buying them.

Caps sent me an e-mail on Saturday selling seats to Caps fans only. You needed a password to buy them (I am on the Caps mailing list). I hope they do that for the next round.

I don't want to get too overconfident, but boy has this team matured in the past few games. It is like watching a new star form in the galaxy. Beautiful and breathtaking.

I honestly was not impressed with the Flyers fans. Even at the beginning, it seemed relatively quiet. Was it just my TV? Did anyone else hear it differently?

Seriously, I've followed this team the majority of my life and I've never been more proud to be a Capitals fan than I am tonight. To rally back from 2-0 down on the road in Philly to win a game going away and force a game 7 is just absolutely incredible to me. Unbelievable. That was just simply incredible, and lets just all hope for another win tomorrow night!

katzistan:
LOL!!! I jumped up and hit the ceiling fan ... at least I did not break anything!! ;-)

@ SuperCaps,

Amen. I have been a fan since 1974 and I can not agree more. I think the way they came back throughout the year and the fact that this is just the beginning.

WOW!

I am from Montreal and a great fan of Huet, Green has the greatest move for a defenseman and Ovechkin just got his machine going.
Good luck Caps!

Wow, I have watched probably 80+ games this season, and this one _sounded_ like one of the best on the season.

Of course my cable company in Manhattan completely F'd me... they bungled the center ice feed so I had to listen to the game... but what an amazing come from behind victory. This team deserves to win tomorrow, but honestly, whatever happens I feel genuinely grateful for the season. So much excitement, so much heart, so much fun. There is no better team to watch.

Let's bring it to them tomorrow night an settle this thing for good. GO CAPS!!

(By the way, you had to just know Ovie was gonna break out... Philly may win tomorrow, but they've got to be kicking the sh*t out of themselves for not sewing this up earlier... you know, back when we didn't have the fire lit under us quite as much and when they thought they had "shut down" Ovie... which of course is utterly ridiculous given he was a force on the ice in every game in my opinion... just because he's not lighting the lamp... stupid commentary)

@ jean-pierre,

Nice win for you all as well. Good luck in the 2nd Round. I hope you beat those Rangers (as I have to feel we will advance to play the Pens).

@Boo!
Wow either you're really tall or... you can jump really high!

Where are the trolls...there were both Flyer and Ranger trolls here earlier this afternoon...What Losers!

tonight was a tough test, tommorow will be as well.great job CAPS. i hope we put the nail in the coffin,(and the puck in the net),tuesday night.iI have faith as i'm sure the rest of you do.

Guys,
Did u notice how Jason Smith, the top Flyers d-man , was checked into the board by a Caps player (I didn't even noticed who he was)?

The hit was do hard that Smith ran around for another 30-40 secs like a chicken without the head

@ MikeR,

The Flyers trolls will not be back. Can't wait to hear a report from Jack though. I am sure he will come on.

mauree:

Or ...

C) My ceiling is low
D) All of the above

new thread

@ King Huet

The future's so bright, i gotta wear shades!

I'm gonna rock the red and wear shades to the game tomorrow!

@ jean-pierre

Good luck indeed! Thanks for Huet, What other man's garbage is another man's treasure... Thank you...:)

@CT
lol I think you meant Jeff?
I bet he wasn't happy by his own team fans booing and leaving like that.

Yeah Baby!

"70% of teams who score first in game 6, win. The Caps are in the 30%," I said at the beginning of the game. I knew we would tie it when Backstrom scored the first goal. They were poised, collected, perfect. I just knew that they were going to score again, and Philly wouldn't. Then, when Richards leveled Ovechkin I turned to my friend and told him that Richards had made a huge mistake. You could hear the floodgates open after his first goal. When Fedorov kept the puck in the zone after trying to stickhandle it in I started cheering, i said "that guy made a mistake and then quickly corrected it," and then BOOM, we're going to 7!

5 believe. I truly, truly believe.

new thread

Any news on Poti or Green? will they be out tomorrow night or not?

WHAT AN AWESOME WIN!!!

I can't believe this team. I don't care what the score is tomorrow, this sh*t transcends hockey. The Caps have given DC an epic season. I'm gonna be standing up in front of my tv all game tomorrow -- how can you sit down as a fan when these guys are clawing for every inch out there!!!

STAND UP DC!!!

Has anyonelse noticed that Semin is playing great hockey,agressive hockey

Backstrom is a scoring machine as well with goals in 3 straight games...he is playing great!

The hardest game is tomorrow night. I like the caps have ended my Monday night celebration.Like I said in a previous blog, Biron has been terrible on back to back games this year. SHOOT often and early tomorrow night.LETS GO CAPS!

Yes Backstrom is playing great as well.and he is showing the signs o f things he will do in the future.if he's not rookie of the year i don't know who is?
