Caps Drop Game 2, Can't Worry About Panicking Now, Brunch Is Delicious

I’ve been trying to type this blog for a while now. I don’t want it to be doom and gloom. There’s enough doom and gloom in the world that I don’t need to write about hockey in the same way. It took me too long to realize that. You know who is the master of the anti-doom and gloom? Big Cat. Jay Cutler could throw 5 INTs in a game, and he’d somehow have a positive spin on it. That’s how I feel right now. There’s no point on going on and on and on about what could have been. Like yes, the first period last night was some of the most one-sided, ice-tilting, domination hockey from the Caps I’ve ever seen. And they had nothing to show for it. Some bad bounces, some bad plays, and some bad hockey later, the Caps lost 6-2.

This Tweet from Steinberg kinda sums up what I feel:

It’s just like…we know they are good. We know Holtby is good. He had a bad game last night, but it’s not by accident they are the best team in hockey back to back years. The playoffs are tough, and the Penguins are good. The Caps aren’t out of it yet though. They put together big win streaks during the season, and there’s no reason they can’t do it now. Being in a 2-0 hole sucks, but it’s not over yet. At this point all you can do is keep believing.

I’m now going to go eat a delicious brunch. I will have pancakes, I will have eggs, I will have home fries, probably some bacon, and who knows what else. Coffee, a bloody, water, maybe even some OJ. All the beverages. A nice Sunday brunch is key to reseting a series. Just doing my part.
