A different year, a different round

So we meet again, Broadway blueshirts. Ready to have your tushies severely in 13 minutes? I'm going to take that as a yes. Oh, Tortsy, can you manage to make ponchos not necessary? That'd be GREAT.

The Rangers barely got past the first round unscathed with a surprisingly strong show by Ottawa. The Rangers are also facing injuries with Boyle out with a concussion and Dubinsky with a leg injury. While the Rangers may have some key players injured, they're still a strong defensive team, which could bode well for the Caps.

The Caps have some issues too, in terms of defensive presence and going into a defensive shell when they get a lead. If the Caps ca do the like of what they did last game, they should be able to get a W in MSG. LET'S GO CAPS!!!

This is my pregame song! Don't judge me...Oh yeah, it's not clean so childs cover your ears.
