Series 1 will be the only series for the Caps. They fell 2-1 tonight to the Montreal Canadiens. The Habs fully deserved the win, and the winning of the series all in all. There is no doubt that the Caps and their fans are gutted completely.
This year was the best in Caps regular season hockey. The post season was heart breaking but nothing can be denied that the regular season was fantastic. A cruel way to end it for a great team. The 09-10 Caps are no more and from the sense of the team it seems that many of the familiar faces will be gone in October.
For better or for worse I am proud of this team, in the regular season at the least (perhaps not so much in the low points of the post season), and anyone trying to discount that has no appreciation of hockey as a sport.
I give my best to the Canadiens in the post season, I hope they do as well as they did against us against their second round opponents.
Our Weagle Scout of the Game?
You all
As corny as it is we, I and Anna, really do want to thank you all for having stuck it out with us for our first whole season of Caps hockey, it was rough surely at the beginning. We look forward to an interesting and fun off-season. We aren’t going anywhere. You have our opinions of the rest of the playoffs, “Better Know a Prospect” and more Development camp shenanigans to look forward to before October begins. And, we’re hoping to stick around a while on the blog-o-sphere and hope to have big things planned for the future.
This team gave us a lot of hope, it united a city bruised by our sports teams briefly, and they broke more than a few hearts but they have a lot to be proud of and we the fans have a lot to be proud of them for.
It was over far too quickly but there is always tomorrow to look forward to. Here is to the future and what ever it holds.
You’re stuck with us Caps, you have been for years and will be for years to come.
If we can make it through the truly dark days we can make it through this. This season was remarkable, and I hope caps fans remember that. Unfortunitly it’ll be forever tainted my the 1st round exit. But hey, the 3 best goaltenders this season took an early curtain call too.
I just found your blog last week, but I love it! I’ve been reading the older posts and I love hearing your guy’s take on everything. Gotta love a girl caps fan that’s not a puck bunny. What kind of changes do you think are gonna be made to the line up? This was such a great year, it’ll be hard to see any of my boys leave.
