“The Caps were a better team...except for all these times where they fucked up and weren’t the better team.”

This article, especially when taken with the other “The Caps deserve this...”, is whiny as fuck. Whines about fluky goals. Whines about injuries. Whines about unfair playoff seedings. Whines about being the better team despite losing (and hilariously getting shutout at home).

Nah. They choked.

+1 Kurt Russell.

They ran into a hot goaltender, which is not a new story in the playoffs. Sucks for Caps fans. Again.

Look, man, I’m just sick of all this winning.

This is what happens to D.C. when you put a Russian in charge of it.

BENGOALZI

Only because “Bitch set me up!”

He openly tried to goad his GM in to quitting. So, I think it is safe to say things are normal for him.

A devastating game-7 loss.

Has Dan Snyder not acted like an asshole in the past four months? Because that would be weird.

Caps don’t get out of the second round? That’s the first normal thing that’s happened in DC since Inauguration Day...

Except in DC politics, the Russian superstars actually win.

I thought he was a waste of a first round pick.

Damn, gotta feel for Ovi, dude’s like the only Russian in Washington with no influence

Over. I am in for $500.

Over/under on number of times callers refer to “those people”: 8.5

Setting my alarm for 530AM to get the full 4.5 hours of Kirk and Callahan on WEEI with the HOTTEST TAKES. It’s going to be great. You’ll get Sully from Carver with his “I have a black friend” take. You’ll get Ben from Manchester who once sat in the out field in Fenway in the 1980s and NEVER HEARD A RACIST COMMENT, so…

Yeah, the mark of a hardcore (American) hockey fan is that you can sing “O Canada” in English and French
