On one hand I want to watch the game, knowing it might be the Caps last game of the season (hopefully not). On the other hand, literally the only time we win games in the playoffs (Wizards/Caps) is when I don't watch. Last weekend, I was in FL, I got to my rental room outside Orlando and turned on the Caps game to watch the last 10 minutes of the third. The Pens scored 2 goals with the empty net to tie the game and force OT. I go to the bathroom to get ready for bed and we scored the OT game winner. Then 2 days ago I turned the game on in the 2nd, the Caps promptly gave up a PP goal to go down 2-1. I change the channel and they scored 3 consecutive goals to take the game.

I'm not typically a superstitious person but this streak of me watching games and the DC team losing has been ongoing for a bit now. I turned on game 2 between Wiz/Celts and the Wiz promptly blew their 4th q lead and lost in OT. That was the last game I've watched to completion (not including Nats, which I typically keep on in the background).
