The Capitals were shocked by the Rangers as they were better than 2-1 choices in each of the first two in this series and came up short at home in both, to fall down 2-0 in the series and heading on the road. It certainly served as a wake up call as the Caps came roaring back on the road and won game three by an easy 4-0 count. The Rangers have struggled offensively as they have now scored just one time in the last two games,and now find themselves in the role of a home underdog once again, a role where they have not responded having gone just 4-9 in their last 13. The Caps have now built their record to 35-16 when allowing two goals or less in their previous game. I look for the Caps to regain home ice advantage with a win to even the series here.
