Why would I be the least bit mad?
I said many pages ago I wanted the Caps in the playoffs and hopefully to face the Penguins but that division is too shitty for that to happen in Round 1 it appears.
Just not a believer that the Caps are back or even good, just beating the weakest teams in the Conference. 8-1-1 last 10 games, 3 games against playoff teams, beating 2 of them in a shootout and losing to the Isles at home in regulation, while also losing to the Flyers in a SO.
Not enough of a sample size against good teams to see the Caps as any more than a 7 seed and first round exit, hence the tough 3 games coming up in next 5 as the real test as to how good they are.
Excuse me for being skeptical.

that is fair but let me remind you......regardless of seeding.............when the playoffs start it is a new season and anything can happen. Remember 2002? The 8th seeded habs knocked off the #1seed Goonins in 6 games! 2004? The 7th seeded habs beat the #2 seed goonins in 7 games. 2010? The 8th seeded habs beat the presidents cup champ #1 seeded caps in 7 and then went on to beat the defending stanley cup champs pens in 7! never count any team out of the playoffs if they get in. Like the great Patrick Roy once said "when Zhou get in da playoffs dings happen"
