that was only a matter of time.

that's the problem with the Caps sit-back style. Sooner or later an aggressive team will break through.

I still think the Caps might win this though.

Not sure they were sitting back, Boston just flat out took over the play of the game.

For the most part they were in control but if they're going to sit back in a game 7 situation, they might as well pack it in. Especially against the defending Cup champs.

They're not getting as many pucks to the net as they could or should

That scramble alone makes an average Tim Thomas look like the better goalie right now. Holby has to be faster to the puck. Get your glove on it

Golf is a skilled activity, like bowling. IMHO

Bowlers are impressive athletes. 300 pound guys who wear clown shoes, eat pizza and drink beer between frames. Most bowlers cross train by running marathons.

This is a crucial point in AO's career. He's, for the most part, been a nonfactor. The Caps have under achieved for the last few seasons. He needs to step up here

Last 5+ periods in game 7's at home the Bruins haven't taken a penalty. Flyers really need to get one of their Fathers working for the League.

this is the most boring game 7 I can ever recall seeing. maybe the NJ/Fl series will top it, but God I hate the Caps style of play.

Defense is great but holy bat poop you have to score to wimn a game. How will you even draw a penalty being so passive?

he does ... though it's hard to see him doing it with the reduced ice time and style of play Hunter has them doing.

he might need to get selfish on a shift. hang out longer than he should, cut short a defensive assignment in order to get up the ice and score a goal.

What does this statement mean exactly? I hear it used all the time. Is it to get it to the high man about to gain the blue line?

I was going to add something like this but I think that plays right into Boston's hands. He tries to do to much, turns it over and the bs rush up ice and score.

To be honest I said it to be an immature goof, play on words.
Essentially it means to pass the puck to the man ahead of you or in other words advancing the puck forward.
