Caps in 7. I think the young leafs push them to the brink. Somehow I did it again and voted for the leafs in 7 but I meant caps.
Set roster weekly in H2H (Mon to Sun) - 16 Teams - start 6F, 3D, and 1G per week - Keep 2

J. Binnington
IR (2 max):
Leafs in 6.
Playoffs make me illogical!
Caps in five. Toronto wins a home game to avoid the sweep, but Washington will be too much for them.

If Andersen has to play through some kind of head/neck injury then this will be short. Otherwise I think Leafs will give Caps a bit of a scare and force this to 6+ games (but ultimately lose)

As I've said elswhere I think this will be a fun series to watch but wouldn't be surprised to see the Caps in 5
Experience is the teacher of all things.
Caps in 4. Caps humiliate the Leafs and leaf land will be preaching "THIS WAS A GREAT LEARNING EXPERIENCE FOR OUR BOYS" and wat not...not that it isn't but yeah lol
Leafs went 1-1-1 with them this yr, 2 games were 1goal games. I think Caps in 7.
