NHL: Round Two, CAPS vs. pens

I grew up in a strictly football and basketball household and as such have never been much of a hockey guy, but I have to admit to being drawn in by this series (interestingly I called my dad this week, who to my knowledge had never seen a hockey game in his life, only to find he had been following it closely too).

So Go Caps!

I've followed the caps very closely my entire life. Going to caps game back in the day was similar to going to farm team baseball games, people were just there. I love how this young team of stars has built a fan base up and put some money in Ted's pockets. It seems that I see people wearing caps jerseys all over the place now. Anyway, I'll be at game 1 tomorrow wearing my old school Dale Hunter jersey. Hope yo see you all there!

GO CAPS!!!!!

Ovechkin is the best player in hockey. and this is coming from a flyers fan. that dude can flat out ball

For anyone who went to the game on Saturday - I'm going tonight with 3 friends, 2 of which are pens fans. How much crap should they expect to get? Are we talking about a lot of arguing and trash talking, or should they expect to come home bloodied and bashed?
Knowing them I don't think they'll start s*** unless they end up getting trashed, but since it's a Monday night I doubt they will. I just want to be able to enjoy the game and not feel like I'm going to need to try to break up a fight every 5 minutes, especially since this is the first playoff game I've ever been to.

man i am jealous, should be a great atmosphere and intense game.

i wouldnt worry too much about caps fans being too rowdy, unless your pens friends like trash talk and playing up a crowd im sure no violence will break out. the nail that sticks out gets hammered down.

GO CAPS!!!!!That's what I figured. One of them has been to Caps vs pens reg. season games in the past so I'm sure he knows how not to act.

If your friends walk into the Phone Booth sporting Pens gear, I don't imagine you'll have to say a word to them. The crowd will handle that for you. As long they know what they're in for and stay cool, everyone should have fun. However I am hoping your buddies walk out of there tonight really disappointed with the outcome.
