Man, if Montreal wins, so many people will have to eat their words after bashing Ovechkin for losing to the 8th seeded team.

I'm not eating my words.

Ovechkin and the Caps choked.  They were up 3-1 up to the 8th seeded team and then blew it.  That's called choking.   

The Canadiens should have been gone already, but the whole situation is hilarious.  Most of the "experts" were saying that they wouldn't even win a game against the Caps and now look.

Yeah, but Washington did everything they could to win those last three games. They got 134 shots, and only scored three times, yet Ovechkin, more than any other player on the team, was laughed at. Now after Montreal shut down the defending champions,  it's obvious that Montreal won that series by their own merit instead of Washington choking.
