The Carolina game was incredibly loud, but the last 10 minutes or so of the playoff-clinching win over Florida was jet-engine deafening. I agree that there are other games worth revisiting, but if they’re only picking 5 they selected pretty well IMO. Regardless, it’ll be great to see Capitals hockey in mid-June!

I’m really surprised we won’t get to see the 4 goal montreal game or the carolina home game for that matter, that night against carolina was the loudest regular season game i have ever been to…..the energy was ridiculous, it’s awesome they are showing this in the summer though, i’m fiending for some caps hockey right now

I’d love to see Ovie’s 4 goal game against Montreal, except for one thing that everyone keeps forgetting … Huet was in goal for Montreal that night.
I think if the Caps are trying to keep him around, maybe not showing that game is a good idea right now

I’m Suprised they didn’t go with Ovie’s 4 goal game against Montreal where he got the game winner in OT from Schultz. Eh, either way it’s hockey in June, a much needed fix.

Nice to see that Game 7 included even though the adverse result. It was a great game and we can complain about the officiating and whatever, but that does not change the fact it was some event. BTW, and somewhat off-topic, CSN is rerunning DC United’s Championship games this week.

@ Chanuck — oh so sad, but oh so true.
(but i did get a chuckle out of reading it).
And does anyone else think that game 1 was the loudest the VC has ever been? I don’t think I’ve ever heard it louder then the last 5 minutes of that game? I’ll find out on Thursday.

Yea Good hockey in the Summer.
The only good thing about Angleos screwing over the Nats and baseball in general.
