Lucky not to be trailing, but I really thought we needed a lead into the 3rd. We'll see, but this game now has the feel of 1st goal wins. Overall outplaying them again, but doesn't mean sh*t really.
On the one hand you figure the Rangers will be tight knowing any mistake could be/will be the series. On the flip side just let it fly now man. I mean do we really have anything to lose at this point? For the love of god, at least force the Caps to play with a lot of pressure in a virtual must win for them in game 6.
To play this game with no confidence is a loss in the making. Caps in the head of the Ranger team. Rangers need to make their own breaks. You get the feeling the Caps will break through as they did in period 2....believe me, they need positive luck.
Not that the Rangers shouldn't be scoring some goals but Holtby couldn't be more on top of his game right now. That's why missing open nets and things of that nature are the killer.
I still had a little hope before game 5 that they can get to Holtby or Holtby runs out of gas but I don't think it will happen. I just cant see it happening. This team scored all of their goals in the regular season.
