it’s amazing to me how many people are telling me that of all the teams they’re scared to play against in a playoff series, the best in the East, the Washington Capitals are not one of them.

Here are some reasons I think you should be afraid of them….

1. Next to John Cooper who is who is the Washington Capitol coach, Spencer Carbery may be the next best coach in the NHL.

2. They have that balance of Veterans and young players which always seems to win Cups…

3. They have figured out their goaltending.

4. They have effectively specialized Ovechkin and keep winning despite the focus on the Gr8 race..

5. Tom Wilson is a rarity and pretty much the perfect playoff player.

6. They go very deep in scoring on their top three lines.

7. Their defense has some great experience on it as well as some fantastic.Youth,

So yes, you SHOULD be afraid of playing the Caps in the playoffs,,


But are you? And if not, why?
