I have no comment on Game 2. As dominant as the Caps were in Game 1, the Pens took over Game 2 early. They outshot the IceCaps almost the same as the Caps did to them in Game 1, and Brad Theissen stopped what he saw.
Now, as the IceCaps head to Wilkes-Barre for three, they are going to need at least one win, probably two, to keep their Calder Cup hopes alive. Win one, and you have to win the last two at home; win two, and you just have to split.
Go Caps Go.
