Caps Take 2-0 Series Lead

Caps surround Varlamov after final buzzer.

Opening drop of the puck.

Thanks to Big Cat for the pictures....wouldn't have killed him to take a few more.

A few quick thoughts about the game...

- Varlamov is the real deal

- Ovechkin and Crosby are BOTH living up to the hype. You don't see that too often in hockey

- Ovechkin and Crosby BOTH had hat tricks...which is even more uncommon

- Caps have now won 5 playoff games in a row

- Caps can't keep falling behind 1-0 and 2-1 or else they will not win 6 in a row

- Varlamov now has a .918 save % and 2.37 gaa

- Game 3 Wednesday @ Pittsburgh. Caps need to get on the board first
