Seriously doubt they get rid of GMGM, the guy has done nothing except find prospect after prospect. Boudreau on the other hand could be a different story but I imagine that he's safe for at least another year. Stat of the night, the Caps have only been in 7 game series since BB became the coach.

Anyone?

Doesn't really matter. We're basically the San Jose Sharks of the East. All the talent in the world yet we fold during the postseason. I don't know if we need a new coach that will better prepare us for playoff hockey but I think not playing against an ungodly goalie should help. It'll be interesting to see if they can beat Pittsburgh. However right now I want little if anything to do with hockey. This loss hurts pretty bad. At least when the Redskins have lost over the past decade it didn't hurt as much because most of the time we knew we sucked, but this was obviously different.
This is one time I'm glad that America doesn't give a crap about hockey as I want have to worry about seeing to many sportscenter highlights.
