    The Washington capitals put a big dagger in the pens tonight

    This series turned on ovys late goal in game 3. There is no looking back now.

    Capitals ml +140

    I agree, Wash is very hungry and you can tell Ovechkin wants this win more than Crosby

    Same reason the Pats lost the superbowl this year, not hungry anymore

    Pit doesnt have the same level of desperation to win

    Afters years of choking the Caps have finally turned the corner, you could tell in the CBJ series. Down 2-0 losing the first 2 at home in OT, that would have ended the Caps for sure but this year they battled through and won. Ovechkin is finally developing that clutch factor he never had early in his career but Crosby was born with.

    Ovechkin is the best player in the NHL this year, in years past he was always a great scorer but never a clutch performer. He is hungry to finally beat his nemesis Crosby and he will do it this year, just watch.

    Ovy goal late in game 3 was all I needed to see. He had that look of hunger and killer instinct I've never seen out of him before.

    Going by stats alone yes but this year he has the clutch factor, the intangibles on his side.

    Caps and Sharks are the only teams with a history of choking, so you can imagine they are the hungriest to win. You can prob add Nash to that list also.

    Penguins aren't talking like 2 time defending champions. They seem intimidated this series and I don't think that is a good sign for them. I'm afraid the Caps have broken them this year. Gm 1 Pens used their shear talent to win thinking this was going to be a skating series. Game 2 and 3 Caps turned it into a ruggedly brutal slugfest and Pens haven't found their will to respond.

    Caps win tonight 5-3 to go up 3-1!

    Pens can't lose this or its over. I can't trust the Caps like the Rockets.

    I'm a little worried about pitt so I'm sitting this one yet. That last goal was fluky for Ovy but it appears to be a very tight match

    Vegas didn't even want to be there last night.

    nobody mentioning tom wilson is out 3 games for a legal hit. hes ovi's linemate now they have to put a lesser player with him. im sure wilson plays 20 minutes a game this will really hurt washington and might cost them the series. NHL wants TB-PITT for sure

    He only plays 15-16 minutes, his average got exaggerated because of bunch of OT games with Columbus.
    Makes no difference if he plays.

    Only a healthy Malkin makes a difference.
