[...] the first period of their last two games, the Capitals have mustered only four shots on goal. This statistic is compelling evidence that the team is not focused on the games [...]

While a small sample fo games is usually not reflective of a team’s overall performance in the regular season, that’s not true come playoff time. Have a few bad games in a playoff series, and you’ll find yourself playing golf a lot sooner than you wanted or expected.

Yes, we all know that a team’s performance in a small sample of games is not necessarily reflective of their overall performance.

The more games you attend, “regression to the mean” will take place and the winning percentage will approach the team’s actual winning percentage.

I strongly disagree with most of the posts on the Curse. According to Seinfeld, everything evens out. Therefore, you should exorcise the curse by going to all the remaining home games. Then, after the curse is purged, you will have omnipotent Caps mojo, so you should attend all playoff games except the first away game in each series, thus assuring that the Caps will win each series and the Cup on home ice (assuming they win the President’s Trophy; if not, adjust your game attendance for Cup finals).

Or should I start wearing green to games instead of red?

We need to find someone with good magic to break the curse BEFORE the playoffs. Or if you keep your promise to attend no more games, and we end up winning the Cup, make sure you get to kiss it in return for your sacrifice.
