Game 7 Preview:

The Washington Capitals and Pittsburgh Penguins will meet in a Game 7 for the 2^nd time in the Alex Ovechkin and Sydney Crosby era.

Although the Capitals dominated in Game 6, Pittsburgh does have a slight edge over them in Game 7’s, outscoring the Capitals 12-3 in those previous games. However, this could be the year that the Capitals could get rid of their playoff demons. But then again…they could lose, and all the hope that the Capitals have given their fans in Game 5 and 6 will be lost. Let’s try and keep our cool as Caps fans, think positive and remember that we have Mr. Game 7, Justin Williams. Who has 7 goals, 7 assists, and is 7-0 in Game 7’s. With that said… Caps win Game 7 by a narrow 3-2 margin, with goals from Kuznetsov, Ovechkin, and the Mr. Game 7 himself.
