A great Game 7 to watch last night.
The refs “let ‘em play” with only one penalty called.
And the Islanders went down to defeat with an O for 14 in PP attempts.
With my Penguins out I will be pulling for the Capitals now. Many of the players were at one time playing at my local rink - the Hershey Bears - where I have season tickets since 2003.
Here’s bad news for Red Wings ...
Wings’ Kronwall suspended one game for charging ...

The dump truck didn’t quite reach the full “back-up” position before delivering the load.
The Caps are a well built, well coached team. Will goaltending be an issue due to Holtby playing too much? The Rangers will have to play better to beat them.
In the east, I hope Tampa wins (just for a southern team to make it) still like Montreal and in the west, Anaheim.
I’m also looking to watch some WC games. Team Canada is stacked with great looking forward lines and Team America is going to play Jack Eichel.
