Tampa Bay Lightning vs Washington Capitals Series Prediction

[puckhead31]

Lightning in 6 games.

The Caps get frustrated and emotionally destroyed more than the Canucks.That Lightning's one-three-one is going to frustrate guys like Ovie, Semin and Backstrom which will lead to turnovers and stupid penalties on the Caps part. and when you have guys like Stamkos, St. Louis, Gagne and Lacavlier to jump on those loose pucks due to turnovers, it's a wrap. I don't see Neuvirth stopping these guys.

Remember guys, Neuvirth shined in the Quarter Finals because he faced the Rangers...the Rangers...a team that pays Gaborik $8mil a year to never score and choke every playoff run he enters...

This Guy Boucher coached this team into a deep playoff run

[EDDIE MONEY LINE]

I'm routing for the caps...as they are my team for nhl11'

[StraitShooter]

Hope to God your right man. I think the Lighting have the offense to go all the way..Good luck with this pick..Hope you win win win!!!

[BigOrangeTitans]

I think the series goes to whichever team can win at home.

Two pathetic teams with a slight edge to washington. Soft, mentally lacking, not made for the playoffs.

Tampa got lucky to beat a 4th line Penguins team or else they'd be swept in 4 with Malkin and Crosby.

Washington has open door finally now, we'll see what they do with it.

Not true. Remember now..the Penguins were still winning in the regular season without those two guys..and beating the Lightning...

What happen was, players like Stamkos and Gagne finally woke up 5 games into the series, and those two players is what sparked this Lightning team to come back from being down 3-1 in the series.

Lighting are my home town team. I am not a hockey guru like a bunch of you.

So let me ask you.....
Did Tampa play over their head and take advantage of a injury ridden team
Or
Are they legit and a true contender?

Opie....puckoff:..

If your not going to ask for my opinion why ask it in my thread?

They beat an injured Penguins team yes, but people are forgetting that that injured Penguins team still kept winning in the Regular season and had a 3-1 series lead, that eventually they blew....with that said, they beat the Penguins fair and square..

and yes they are a legit contender as long as Roloson does not get hurt and keeps playing like he has.

[StraitShooter]

only thing that can jinx the Lightning is if they show that Albatroos Dicky V in the stands. I think the guy lives there and everytime they showed him or talked to him a few years back when the Lightning were a Stanley Cup contender the other team would score..True story the guy is a bad luck schleprock

Lol sorry I assumed since it was your thread. You were the top choice. The others were just additional hockey guys I could think off.

Ovechkin sucks..he has no heart. Actually so does Backstrom. Semin is starting to come through finally.

[The Bet Master]

Lightning Vs. Canucks in the finals should be good.

No he is NOT. Him and Backstrom are heartless, they have no balls or heart to win in the playoffs. They cause more problems then solving.

Ovie is just a ticket seller.

I hate Ovechkin but it's an absolute joke that you can't admit he's awesome. First the homer thread, now this C'mon man.

I will call him awesome when he plays in the playoffs like he does in the regular season. What is the point of calling a player awesome if he never shows up in the playoffs? WHERE THE SEASON MATTERS MOST!?

[Nevada]

Lightning Vs. Canucks in the finals should be good.

I agree

[puckhead31]

haha Mike Green is so OVERRATED and so is Niklas Backstrom and Ovie is NOT a captain haha

Caps suck again 2-0 hole!
