Capitals...

They just wouldn't give up. Down 3-2 in matches and 2-0 in match No. 6. Some would just give in and think: "F*ck it..." What did the Caps do? They decided that they had had enough. 2-0 soon became 2-1 (Niklas Backstrom) and. one minute from the buzzer in the second period, 2-2 (Alexandr Semin). In the third period, the Capitals created the most and Alexander The Great (who else?) scored twice to give the Capitals a well earned 4-2 victory. Speaking to Swedish media after match No. 5, rookie Swede Niklas Backstrom came with some nice quotes:
- This is far from over.
- We're getting the hang of it now.
- We'll never give up.
That's just some of the quotes the evermore cocky Swede said. True enough, everything became reality last night. And tonight the decider will be played. In hockey-crazy Washington D.C.
And charging down the Verizon Center, I can not see the Caps failing to win this.

And, Montreal Canadiens got their act together last night. They absolutely demolished the poor Boston Bruins, 5-0(!). There was just one team on the ice. OK, the Bruins had some chances but the amazing Carey (I might have called him Corey earlier....sorry!) Price had simply decided not to let a single puck pass him. I honestly think that's the way it goes. Some nights he just says to his team-mates: "Nah, guys. Focus on offense tonight. I got it."
