I would say of the three Semin has been the biggest disappointment - he has completely disappeared after scoring 5 goals in the Rangers series. For the series I have seen a lot of people complain about the refs but overall it really looks like the Caps are out of gas and playing on their heels the whole time. It seems like someone from the Pens is camping out in front of Varly the whole game, yet noone on the Caps is screening the Pens goaltender that much. What is diappointing is I think Fleury is very beatable and we could have really gone on far. What sucks even more is I think Carolina is going to advance and we could have had home ice in the Eeastern Conference Finals as well.

The refs have been pretty awful again tonight.
