Powerplay Powerful, But Other Questions Remain

To make a long run in the playoffs teams need great goal tending and a powerful power play. While the jury is still out on the Caps goal tending, the Caps are guilty of having one of the league's best power plays and I think, the best power play unit in Ovie, Semin, Backstrom and Green. The Caps rank second in the league on the power play and in the last two games alone have five power play goals. The last time I remember something being that potent I was in the Cologne department of Bloomingdales. Last year's playoff birth was a surprise and the Caps fell just short of going to the second round, but this year the team was expected to go to playoffs and with the offensive firepower to take down any team, the only question that remains is how well will Jose and the D holdup against the league's best.

Let's hope Theo is ready. But how about that come back against Atlanta the other day? Three goals in the first five minutes of the 3rd period? So sick. It just shows the Caps are never out of a game.
