For somebody who seems to detest hockey as much as you do you sure do seem to post a lot in this thread :wink:
Anyway, the post above pretty much sums it up. The caps defense is being exposed for what it is, mediocre. I'm not all that surprised at Green's postseason thus far. The guy was never more than decent in his own end all year long, so expecting him to be more than that in the postseason is just unrealistic. That said, he's still young, and I think his game in his own zone will come around in the next few years. Dmen tend to mature slower than other skaters anyway.
Personally I think the Caps are going to pull out the game tonight and force this series to go seven. If they don't though there's really not much you can say. Yes the officiating has been questionable, but the Caps have been (as a team) outplayed by the Pens in almost every game this series. I have a feeling that they won't go w/o a fight.
