And the Hobbit all but seals it. What a series (again).
Well 3-0. No way the Captials score 4 on Lundqvist. Great series by the Rangers to shut these guys down. Should be interesting to see what happens in Washington next year!
And the Hobbit all but seals it. What a series (again).
It's amazing to me that the Rangers will win this series. They scored one goal or less in four of the games.

wow the Caps kinda forgot to show up for this one...hate to see this in a hard fought series but they fell apart
I don't think they played too badly in all honestly (though the wheels did start to fall off a bit at the start of the third).
Just outclassed by the Rangers tonight, and ran into the best goalie in the world imposing his will the last two games. Lundqvist is just filthy good.

Ovechkin sounds like a sore loser:
http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nhl-pu...035215761.html“The refereeing... You understand it yourself. How can there be no penalties at all (on one team) during the playoffs?
“I am not saying there was a phone call from (the league), but someone just wanted Game 7. For the ratings. You know, the lockout, escrow, the League needs to make profit... I don't know whether the refs were predisposed against us or the League. But to not give obvious penalties (against the Capitals), while for us any little thing was immediately penalized...”

Pretty hilarious how this just won't end despite the second round being well underway...

Now it's getting personal.
Washington Capitals coach Adam Oates is not happy about New York Rangers coach John Tortorella characterizing the Caps' complaints about officiating as whining.
"Well, I think he's out of line," Oates said on Washington's 106.7 The Fan. "[Tortorella] should be worried about his own series. We didn't whine once during the series. I never complained. I don't know, did you guys ever hear me complain about officiating?"
Oates seemed so frustrated that he was asked whether he could beat up Tortorella.
"Yes," Oates said, "easily."
Caps star Alex Ovechkin had already criticized the officiating in the series, which the Rangers won in seven games. The Rangers received 28 power-play chances in the series; the Capitals finished with 16.
Tortorella responded Wednesday.
"We've got everybody and their brother whining out there in Washington about what happened in that series," Tortorella said. "And I think that's a big reason they lose that series."
