The boys at Bleacher Report have an excellent (translation: horrifyingly detailed) recap of every springtime disaster in Caps history.
While Cleveland fans who root for those frowny Brownies can perfectly empathize with heartache, there is NO NHL franchise that has been as consistently great for the last three decades with nothing to show for it as the Washington Capitals. They are easily the most snake-bitten (or, should I say frostbitten?) franchise in the National Hockey League.If you are a Ranger, Penquin, Islander or Flyer fan it's high comedy.
For us Caps fans, torture.
The Chicago Cubs of the NHL.
ReplyDeleteI'd say it's more like the pre-2005 Red Sox...but in either case, the results suck.
ReplyDeleteI've been a Caps fan since I was a kid, and while these have all been painful, the other night was the worst. What a time to take a stupid, high-sticking penalty! They had that game wrapped up if they keep 5 guys on the ice.
