The Capitals constantly tried to apply pressure in all facets of the game from hitting to shooting on net. The only time the Flyers appeared to turn the tide is when the Caps took their pedal off the gas. The Flyers have consistantly played their game. When the Caps play physical and smart they're winning the five on five game. When the Caps let up they soon find their friends up north dominating them. It's difficult to play a style that's not your own when you're still finding your own style of up tempo end to end hockey. Washington must whether the storm and continue to be mentally tough to walk out of Philly with a win. The Caps must win two more games to play someone with a different style for a better match up. Here's to the Caps for a great game on NBC and pushing the series another game.

It probably helped that The Sports Freak and I did not go to the game. Our curse and everything.
Kidding aside, the Caps played much better. If they can keep this up for just two more games, I think they can make it.
