Who could doubt that the Caps would comeback and WILL Win the series. We are EXTREMELY LUCKY to have this team and a great player like Ovechkin. He is the equivalent of LeBron or Kobe playing in our backyard. WOW! I think we will win the Cup this year. Won’t be easy but it’s more fun this way.

What? No comment about Sather calling the team out in his letter to Bettman?

It’s a pleasure to be rocking the red here in london, england. Your plan for the team was clear from the beginning and it’s been a pleasure to watch it unfold. Congrats on building a fantastic organisation and a special thank you for making it so easy to feel connected with the Caps from thousands of miles away.
Dream Team. Right here.

Not enough give-a-aways? What does the guy want, you to give him a car… or a house?? lol I’ve been to a number of games over the last few years and have no complaints with the give-a-aways…. especially on ‘kids night’. You guys really go WAY above and beyond for the kids!

LETS GO CAPS!!

I would have expected some kind of public response to the ugliness Friday night. The actions of Washington fans behind the New York bench are no secret, and they have nothing to do with good tidings or class.

Granted, you can’t do much to prevent individuals from misbehaving; they’re everywhere, at every venue. Clearly Madison Square Garden is no exception. I was a season-ticket holder and was embarrassed to be associated with many people at those games, but I digress.

If security received word of deplorable, ejection-worthy behavior, especially when it’s all being directed at one of the teams competing against your team, something has to be done.

Things like that cannot be ignored.

Between the hubristic on-ice displays from your team — think the Ovechkin-Backstrom mock stick salute after Game 2, the trash-talking, the taunting — and the take-this-into-our-own-hands approach of your fans, the Capitals are prime for a fall.

It might not be the Rangers knocking the team off this pedestal, but someone surely will and no one will have to dig deeply to find out why.

What a fantastic weekend for all Caps fans!
We all knew the Caps were the better team and now our chance is here on Tuesday! Leaving work extra early just to make sure there are no delays getting to DC from Baltimore. Thanks for being a caring, intelligent, and accessible owner. How refreshing that is in pro sports.
See you Tuesday! Rock the Red!

You and the CAPS are doing a great job - now for a very nervous evening at the Verizon Center on Tuesday - I have been cheering the CAPS for many years and it does my heart good to see them play like they did in period 1 and 2 today. Thank you for making all this possible!
