All the anxiety and stress during their funk periods this season, the bad penalties, the lack of scoring on the power play, EVERYTHING. Do it Caps.

If he does this in the playoffs, he’ll become a bigger liability than Sasha….. Semin drives us crazy all the time by showing amazing skill one minute, then taking a stupid penalty the next minute, while all season Backstrom has been sleeping…… I’m equally frustrated by both!

It doesn’t matter anyway, if they can turn it on in the playoffs and play like champions, then all of the frustration they’ve put us through will instantly be forgiven.

On the back of the mighty Neuvy, lead by OVI and Arnott, WE RIDE!!!!! ONWARD TO THE PLAYOFFS!!!!!!!!!!!

Now lets pray we don’t get the Rangers round 1!

And really with the gratuitous shot at Sasha Minor despite his not even being in the line up!? Really RMNB!? I thought this was – at its heart – a Russian player fan blog!

And how is that precious Nicky Poo’s stupid stupid stupid penalty with 9 seconds left in OT missed the editorial cut? Instead the “spin” is that he’s “due” to score!? Come on!

What if it were Sasha Minor taking that penalty? Whats the over/under that would get a mention? Can you see how this just infuriates Semin fans!?

He’d be the fourth goaltender right now on the Capitals depth chart. There’s no way he’s better than Braden Holtby. Right? Or do I have my Caps blinders on?
