Their physical play has really kept Washington's offence from being effective. Philly is tough, Washington isn't.
Playoff hockey is all about grit and toughness, if Philly plays as physically tonight as they are capable of Washington cannot beat them, period.
Physically the Caps are soft, they are better suited to the regular season.
The Capitals had an amazing run at the end of the regular season that got them to the playoffs, they over-achieved and that is starting to show. They have already played their hearts out and the tank is getting low.
Against other teams I'm not sure how the Flyers would fare (right now), but I'm convinced that they are the superior playoff team in this series and will lay the wood.
Flyers -130 [More than a ten unit play for me tonight.]
