Really? I would have been interested to see this team play Hunter's style for an entire season. Let's face it, they were a bounce or two away from being in the Eastern Conference Finals. There's an awful lot of talent on that team, just need to tweak a spot or two.

I can't fathom a real fan of the sport of hockey rooting for either Phoenix or LA against an original six team and the Devils.

clearly not enough to persuade a Caps legend to come back and take another swing, which should speak volumes.

let's face it, they've been on the cusp of "something" great for years, and have NEVER made it past the 2nd round. They couldn't do it as a #3 seed or as a #7 seed or as a #1 seed, or as a presidents trophy winner. F*cking San Jose of the east.... i say blow it all to hell and start from scratch, b/c this sh!t aint working no mo!!!

I think there's a fair chance the Caps will get "blown" up in the offseason. Semin is as good as gone, for better or for worse, and their three best defensemen are free agents in some form or fashion (I've been arguing with my Caps friends for five years now that they should have traded Mike Green long ago).

Like I said the other day, it's going to be a good offseason to be a Wings fan for once.

i disagree that the team needs blowing up, or that mcphee needs to go. hunter has home and family in canada. that spoke more volumes, along with his knights, than wanting to coach in d.c.
and we have made it past the second round-i distinctly remember getting swept by detroit in the stanley cup finals.
