Gee, thanks, NHL. I had figured that the pencil-pushers just fell asleep mid-schedule.
The Sharks and Flames are already a pair deep in their Pacific match-up, and the Flyers and Capitals are still waiting in their stalls with their special Stanley Cup patches by their team’s crests. But as a Philly fan that calls DC my residence, I can tell that this city is ready. Release the puck already!
All the talk this week has been directed at the Caps destined Hart winner, the Russian that wears number 8. And while his Segway is benched in this series, I expect him as the central figure in NBC’s man-crush in this series. Still, I think that this series has many angles that the media’s missing. They are:
- The Flyers are better than the Caps. That’s it.
