NHL Playoffs - Tampa Bay Lightning Sweeps The Washington Capitals (May 4 2011)

[ALEXBENLAK]

At my birthday :(

[BuiltFordTough2011]

Caps always do seem to crash and burn late in the season

[TedLillyfan15]

0:15 is the most awkward crowd shot of all time

[balvinderbagha]

fuck tamby bay they fucking suck the only we got out is because of bad goaltending

[dadeeman1oo]

@balvinderbagha you mad bro? we had better offense than you and the caps did horrible at tampa actually starting from that game 2 in washington.

[IRockstarFilms]

@balvinderbagha Shut the fuck up

[ownwar8]

We were better than the Bruins. We deserved it more.

[thelightningfan4]

This just keeps getting better and better the more times I watch this cause I HATE Washington and Boston and not just because Boston put out Tampa

[crazeedrummer5895]

go bolts, you deserved cup final more than bruins.

[amar43birdi]

tampa is taking it this year.



[dadeeman1oo]

as a ranger fan this is beautiful haha nanana nanana hey hey goodbye!!! we are louder!!!

[ROBLOXovicarlson]

Congratulations Tampa Bay. This loss was upsetting to me at first, but I got over it.

This is the way I see it. If you ever come back from a big differential like 3-0, 3-1, or 3-2 and win the series, the other team choked. If you beat the team in 4 or 5 games, you're just the better team.

[sandwhich14]

Bruins Fucking suck so bad Bruins are Gabage!!!!!!

[MsMofo80]

enjoy it while it lasts tampa your gonna get rocked by the BIG BAD BRUINS!!!!!!! LETS GO B'S!

[ILuCkYxCh4rMz]

@MsMofo80 i wouldnt be so sure....boston hasnt seen Rolie yet and he shut down the caps beastly PP and super lines....and the bolts take the fewest shots but make em count. if TT isn't perfect then tampa will easily take the series. tampa's PK and all around tenacity will wear out the bruins in 5

[BuiltFordTough2011]

@MsMofo80 bahahahahaha your B's got thunderstruck overrated POS's

[MsMofo80]

@BuiltFordTough2011 u guys won game 1 fair and square but theres still plenty of hockey to play

[ILuCkYxCh4rMz]

ok so Guy boucher isnt in contention for coach of the year but washington's coach is.....bullshit. most underated coach in NHL history. this man knows fundamentals, knows how to keep a team under control and most importantly STAY ON COURSE. the NHL really fucked this one up.....GO BOLTS

[treshnefix]

@ILuCkYxCh4rMz dude....relax man, i was just kiddin...oh and i am a canucks fan and i am a proud bandwagoner, the actual team i like because of the players are detroit and i'm not hating.....

[dangleman1]

semin your russian coach doesnt even want you playing for your own country, your a waste of space and your lack of effort and will doesnt belong in the national hockey league, same for backstrom. Its a shame that you guys could give a rats ass about your play yet you take up the majority of your teams salary cap. These guys need out..

[christian1218]

@thugginmcnugget Suck it Ovechkin!!

[ckendall67]

LET'S GO LIGHTNING!! :-D ( From a Leafs fan )

They're a fun team to watch, & playing like they are on a mission.

Reminds me a lot of their team in 2004.... :-D

Good luck in the Eastern Conference Finals vs...well, it sure looks like it will be Boston, because I don't see them choking again like last year.

[timma500]

Let's go Lightning! Good luck and win it all this year! Coming from a Rangers fan :)

[treshnefix]

The Tampa bandwagon is immense.

[ILuCkYxCh4rMz]

@treshnefix bandwagon?! lmao and your a fan of who.... you want to talk about bandwagon look at pitt and wash. look at the jerseys on ppls backs.....come to tampa and see jerseys of ppl from the begining and fans with season tickets since the 90's. its the playoffs dumbass. always a sellout in every building. the lightning are a great team and ppl only talk about the ovechkins and crosbys. so keep hating

[sandman8185]

As a Canucks fan my opinion the Capitals need to be better defensively they can't expect to win cups with just one wonder line of Ovechkin Semin and Backstrom carrying the team.

[BlueBombers4Life]

@sandman8185 Says the guy that cheers for a team with 2 lines of okay depth, one good defensive pairing, and a goalie.

[sandman8185]

@BlueBombers4Life One good defensive pairing? Salo Bieksa Hamhuis Edler and Erhoff are all great d-men especially Edler.

[xXNotoriousXx31]

Guy Boucher is such a great coach

[MannyK8705]

Bergenheim is a beast!

[ckendall67]

@MannyK8705 Who would've thought that Bergenheim would have more playoff goals than Ovechkin or the Sedin twins in Vancouver??? :-)

[striker265]

lmfao caps fans shouldnt be surprised

[nikademis22]

Im going to be honest and say it how it truly is. These teams are like cars and the players like pieces of the engine. If built correctly the capitals are a sweet racing Lambo and the Lighting a Sweet Corvette. The Lambo is faster and will beat the corvette 100% of the time with the right driver (coach). However, if even 1 piece of that lambo engine is left out or not working with the rest of the engine, or the driver is bad, the Corvette will beat the lambo everytime. Caps seemed to not care.

[erimac1000]

@nikademis22 The Lambo will be ahead for the first 100 mph but pass that point will see the 'vette coming through and where will be the Lambo... in the mirror... with any driver. They lost because Green took bad penalties Backtrom was almost never there and all the team didn't follow the intensity of Ovy. Not that I like him, I think he's not a good team player. Boudreau as nothing to do with that, but is head will be cut.

[nikademis22]

im going to be honest and say it how it is. These teams are like cars and the players are pieces of the car. Put all the pieces of the Capitals together correctly and you have a sweet Lambo. Put all the pieces of the lightning together and you have a sweet Corvette. Yes a lambo is better, faster, and will beat a corvette everytime with the right driver (coach), but if even 1 piece is missing from the engine or put together wrong then the lambo will lose everytime to the correctly built Corvette

[SSKAIKSSK]

Awesome! LETS GO BOLTS!!  FUCK OFF OVECHKIN!!! BUUUUUUUUUUU!!!

[elegance99]

what's up with Roloson leaving his mark on during the ceremonial handshake?

[prorobo]

@elegance99 He probably didn't have time to lift it from the celebration until the handshakes started.

But seriously, what a stupid question to ask.

[elegance99]

@prorobo there is time - not gonna argue....I thought it as unprofessional but kudos to Roloson nonetheless, he deserved the cup with Edmonton

[Britex123]

idk why this reminds me of when the ducks swept the favored Detroit team in 03.

[Andragon90]

Boucher - All Business 0:44

[VuuDoo13]

Can some one upload Pierre Mcguire talking shit about Semin?

[prorobo]

@VuuDoo13 No one gives a shit about what the incredibly annoying Pierre Mcguire says. How that guy still has a commentary job is vexing.

[JDiVito094]

Goodbye Boudreau

[NasreenN101]

too bad caps..maybe next year :) GO NUCKS GO!!

[maplestoryroad]

SWEEEEEEEEEEEP

[prorobo]

Yeah it was interesting watching this on TV...... OH WAIT, VERSUS DIDN'T CARRY THE FUCKING GAME!

THANK YOU NHL FOR 10 MORE YEARS OF VERSUS BULLSHIT HOCKEY COVERAGE.

[BakingPizza]

@prorobo NHL Network showed it?

[prorobo]

@BakingPizza NHL Network isn't free?

[prorobo]

@BakingPizza And actually my point is that the NBA, which has a REAL TV deal with ESPN/ABC, doesn't have important series ending games NOT on ESPN, ABC, or TNT where most people can actually watch it.

[Saints9211]

funny how all you ppl talk crap about ovi and the caps. it's real funny considering how your teams did (or rather didn't do) so eat a chode...

[tbl35]

@Saints9211 awww someone's sad!

[ILuCkYxCh4rMz]

@Saints9211 OVI is a dirty player and a crybaby just like crosby. but hey with all that high sticking the caps did and how they got called for goalie interferance 4 times that game really shows how solid they play. they knew going into tampa that it was over. so they started throwing elbows and sticking the bolts in the face...not to mention diving. so keep those tears falling chump lmao. GO BOLTS

[Saints9211]

@ILuCkYxCh4rMz ya know, i had respect for the bolts fans until you virtually approached me with your vast level of ignorance. if you knew any better, my comment was aimed at fans of teams who are out of the playoffs and talk smack about the caps...and thanks to your high level of unintelligence, you're in the same boat...and unlike you, im not an internet tough guy who likes starting crap over the internet. do yourself a favor and pay attention in school. IM OUT

[ILuCkYxCh4rMz]

@Saints9211 your out?! lmao ok loser. making personal attacks while i stated facts and then calling me the internet tough guy lol. did i hurt your fragile little ego lmao. calm yourself and the next time you post an idiotic comment and get told, think really hard about what you have to say before just insulting someone lol. looks immature. and about you having respect for bolts fans....please. you dont know them. go watch international hockey and rage about it next lol. loser...

[Saints9211]

@ILuCkYxCh4rMz hey moron, your ignorance is showing! i know bolts fans who don't make themselves feel good by taunting people (especially via internet) so you, my friend are looking immature. also, how was my comment idiotic? was it because i defended my team and called out all the haters whose teams have been eliminated? i'd love to explain why i did so but you're probably too much of a bonehead to comprehend the message im trying to get across

[ILuCkYxCh4rMz]

@Saints9211 first off, its professional sports. if your ego is bruised then im so truly truly sry. but hey keep making personal attacks on ppl you dont know. bc thats what trolls do. kudos chump...your gonna make me cry now

[chubbyjenks]

ovechkin will have major offseason back surgery for carrying the no heart capitals on his shoulders the whole playoffs.

[SonicXisnow2009]

Bye Ovechkrap and the Crapitals!

[oilers000]

I didn't pick Washington in my hockey pool for 1 reason they always choke in the playoffs. GO TAMPA!

[nOOb1hunter]

caps are the biggest chokers ever

[oleHABSole]

@nOOb1hunter not if Philly wins 4 in a row again... lol

[nOOb1hunter]

@oleHABSole almost impossible 2 years straight lol

[oleHABSole]

@nOOb1hunter I know and 2 same teams, odds are like 1 in a trillion.
