Going down without a fight
I was not surprised the Caps lost to Pittsburgh. As a Caps fan losing to Pitt is a way of life. I am surprised that the boys in red just rolled over. Never did I think they would just lay there and let Sid kick them in the face. But that is what happened. Does anyone know why it happened? There was no hate. There was no hate in this series. No anger. Early in the season, when there was hate, the Caps spanked the Pens. In this series...nothing. So much for the big rivalry. It was the playoffs. You don't skate around the opposition. You skate through them. Another point, outside of a couple of guys, the defense sucked. This off season, the Caps need to get better on D and find someone with a little sandpaper in his soul. Dale Hunter where are you.

A loss is forgivable (clearly the Pens are the better team at this time), but to come out flat is inexcusable. I'm tired of hearing about youth being the reason they aren't ready to play-the Pens are young too and they seem to have no problem showing up for the opening faceoff.
