Caps vs. Rangers.
And we have been here before. In previous seasons. And if records are true, the Caps have a slight advantage in this one. Since in the previous two seasons we have eliminated them. Though this year they are the higher seed. They have home advantage. And we are once again the underdogs in the series. Despite us knocking off the current Cup champs, they Rangers are expected to win.
Of course this sounds all too familiar with this.
Game one found the Caps up at Madison Square Garden on a Saturday afternoon. I, was far from the area, and watched it from my sisters home in Hurricane territory. My husband thought this was in the bags. I was a little skeptical. And I had every right to be, they didn't look like the team that played against Boston, in fact I didn't even know where that team was....they looked a little to anxious at times. And the Rangers, seemed to want it a little more. Then again they were at the home.
There of course were moments. Moments where they were so close to scoring, but Lindquist wasn't having any of it and denied some what would have been gorgeous shots from Ovi, and Johannson. And for a moment we were so close. It was tied for a while. And yes I thought here we go.
Was it going to be one of those series again? Time will tell.
In the end game one went to the Rangers...3-1.
Come on boys, tomorrow is another day...
