It's as simple as that for the Caps tonight. They took the early 2-0 series lead only to fall behind 2 games to 3 but battled back in a nail biter for a victory in Game 6. All of that sets up what should be a memorable deciding Game 7 show down. I imagine the atmosphere will be electric. Big stars shine in big games and I think Ovie is looking forward to tonight. However, just like in Game 6, we will need others to step up because the one thing the Penguins will now allow happen is for Ovie to beat them. Mike Green should have his stick back tonight so it would be a great time for him to show up in the playoffs and make something happen.
Hopefully Varly comes up big as well. It's strange because outside of one game this series, he has been spectacular in the playoffs and I almost feel like we expect to see that kind of performance each game. We all know that you need great goaltending in the playoffs and need for the goalie to come up with 2-3 great saves. I just hope he has at least one more in him tonight.
I said yesterday that the Philly series in 1988 was the greatest. As we get closer to tonight's game, this has the potential to be the greatest series given the rivalry and the stars and the almost Stanley Cup Championship type feel this series has garnered. A win tonight and we will have stolen this series because we have been outplayed but it will certainly rank right up there with any series the Caps have ever played.
I'm looking forward to this game with great anticipation and the nerves are already beginning to flutter. I'm sure the same is true for all Caps fans. So a final call out to all Caps fans...UNLEASH THE FURY!!!
LETS GO CAPS!!!!

PAGING MIKE GREEN! DR. GREEN YOU ARE NEEDED STAT!
I cannot wait. It should be a great game. I'd love to see a blowout by the Caps, but expect to see a tight, nailbiter of a game. Just win baby!
Get the CBC! Get the Chem 7! CLEAR!!!! MIKE GREEN GET THE F OVER HERE NOWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!
I'm hoping the Caps blow them out as well. I just hope it doesn't go to OT because I just don't know if I could go through that kind of stress. If we were to lose in OT, it would be devastating. Of course, a win in OT would be exhilarating. Still, I don't want to be put through that roller coaster.
As you say, just win, BABY!!!!
They need to get the paddles out and shock Green so that his heart starts up again and he can actually play. The guy is a zombie out there.
Frankly a good shock with the paddles couldn't hurt.
