I see online some pretty funny references about " the long suffering Vegas fans " or references like that I like that kind of humor
 . Vegas has some time to rest we'll just have to see for how long . My gut tells me Bolts win it tonight but we'll see what the Caps are made of . I think for the Caps to win they can't let Tampa score in the first 10 minutes . I'm hoping for a great game .

I'll start off by saying Vegas was full value for the win. I can't help but wonder if the Jets/Preds series
took most of the steam out of the Jets. The "Knights-Vegas" save the first game, had the Jets chasing them in the 4 straight they won. Also as far as yesterday's game goes, they were in complete control of that third period & contained what was to all intents & purposes, a tired team out of gas. Damn - they are a fun squad to watch. Congrats to them. Should Ovi & the Caps prevail & get to the cup final - I wonder what might be going through his mind as he looks down at the Vegas end & sees an old nemesis between the pipes: "Aw crap! - I thought we'd already beaten these guys this year" So who calling for the Bolts to punch their ticket to the dance tonight? Cheers JB

First of all Holtby at 3.49 needs to beat Vasilevsky who is at 2.00. Not so easy. Plus Tampa is very strong on the road right now and Washingtion is negative at home, I don't know the W/L number. Frankly Ovi really needs to step up or someone else must. The Caps need Keeping and serious offense to get through. They're light on both.
I'm hopeful of a miracle but fully expect that Tampa goes through tonight.

If the Caps played 3 games ago like they just did this first period tonight they'd be on their way to Vegas. I agree that they need to get ahead and stay ahead or it will be too much of a hill to climb mentally.
If they lose tonight, sadly you may see Trots packing his bags. I don't think it is fair to blame him but he would be the scapegoat.

The Caps final get a PPG. Oh baby this 3rd period could be special.
edit: well Ovi still has only a few shots and no goals but somehow they got their miracle. Game 7 baby!!

Well well well the Capitals showed up and now each team has one home game win in this series . I'm happy to see it go 7 and Wed. night I'm sure the Tampa arena will be rocking . It doesn't get much better than this ! In the mean time I'm sure Vegas players and coaches are watching a LOT of tape of these two teams , that may be an advantage for Vegas .

Game seven will either be huuuge or a blowout. It won't take long to figure out which.
In the meantime, while the Caps and the Bolts beat each others brains in, the Knights are resting. Looks like Vegas has an edge going into the finals.

Heart says one thing. Head (and history) say another. Caps don't have happy game 7 record...

I would like to see the Ovi curse broken , I think he has been good for the league . He is a one man wrecking ball and can do it all and will . Having said that I think Tampa squeaks this one out .

This one could go either way. I'll make my prediction about 10 pm eastern time.

I'd rather see the Caps take a 3-0 win with Ovi having at least one goal.
As an added bonus, we won't have to see Crosby's face tonight.
