These two teams meet for the 10th time in their histories, with the Penguins holding a decisive 8-1 advantage. Last year, Pittsburgh won the series 4-2; however, the Capitals did take the regular season series 2-0-2.

This is the year Washington finally punches through in the East.... they win in 6.

I agree with the above, I think Washington finally gets the monkey off their back and pushes through.

I can't help thinking that the Caps are overrated.. I feel that their confidence is quite fragile while the Pens are resilient.
Sid wins this one in 6.

This one has all the makings of an epic series. Caps in OT of game 7.

This is gonna be good (still upset about my Leafs though haha), but I say Sid and the Penguins in 7.

[SenatorCollector]

Only because my Eastern Bracket says Capitals, so Caps in 7. THIS series will be the monster of the entire Playoffs though!

Go Pens Go!! After the series with Toronto i hope the Caps are banged up. I think the Pens win this in 6 games. Ovechkin & the Caps are Choke Artists & if they play like they did in the Toronto series the Pens will make quick work of them. Would be nice if Murray was playing but Fleury has filled in admirably. Letang will be missed too. Go Pens Go!! Send this Heartless Ovechkin led team home...

Crosby and the Pens are looking unstoppable most of the time. Caps have a bad habbit of running into Pittsburgh in the playoffs. I have the Pens even though the Caps are well overdue.

Vegas oddsmakers are basically saying whoever wins this series wins the Cup. We'll see...
