Uh, I assume you mean PAST the 2nd round. He's been to the second round quite a lot. Never the Conference Finals, though. The Caps recent conference semi's/2nd round choking history includes:
2008/9 - Lost to Pens in 7 (had a 2-0 lead before dropping 3 in a row)
2010/11 - Lost to Lightning in 4
2011/12 - Lost to Rangers in 7 (went through Bruins in 1st round. Never forget Tim Thomas trying to make the little kid feel better after they lost)
2014/15 - Lost to Rangers in 7 (had a 3-1 lead)
2015/16 - Lost to Pens in 6
2016/17 - Lost to Pens in 7 (paid $$$ to take wife and daughter, big Caps fan, to game 2 where we were embarrassed 6 to 2 - and surrounded by Pens fans in our row).
Not that I'm counting or anything...
