Hockey is as much effort as it is skill. To paraphrase Boudreau, the Caps had the want yesterday but they didn't have the will. Philly had both.

Hopefully more than just a round, but I think expectations might have been getting a little unrealistic heading into the playoffs and especially after game 1. I don't think I can see the Caps beating Montreal or Pittsburgh, the latter of which makes me sick. This is how young teams do it. Whatever happens this season, so be it. Next year I fully expect to be fighting for the #1 seed in the east and moving deep into the playoffs.
