Happy girls are the prettiest girls

2 notes - 30 May, 2013

I feel like I find myself doing this after every Caps season, so bare with me as I do it once more. I am proud to be a Washington Capitals Fan. Nothing will ever change that. Unlike most Caps fans I’ve been going to games since I was 3 years old, just so you know thats a lot of disappointing seasons. But this season is not disappointing to the slightest. Did we lose? Yes we lost in the first round of playoffs once again. But disappointing is having an outstanding season, and than losing to the 8th placed team, disappointing is losing in the Stanley Cup finals to the Wings or we could have pulled a Toronto last night and be up 4-1 in the third and lose. This was not disappointing. If you would have asked any educated hockey fan if the Washington Capitals were going to make the playoffs as of February or March they would have laughed at you, at least I know I would have. We were a team with an ENTIRELY NEW coaching staff, a coach that had never been a head NHL coach before. Adam Oates came in and did something that most people thought was impossible. He got Ovechkin to work, to be a captain, which is something the other coaches struggled with. He got a group of boys to stop acting like a All-Star team and just act as one team. That to me is an accomplishment that should be celebrated. Thank you Dad for another amazing hockey season and for once again sharing your passion with me. Thank you for also staying till every Washington Capitals player left the ice last night. To the next season boys.
