Anna and I bust out this Special Edition of the Triple P to provide coverage of the Caps in their second Stanley Cup Final appearance ever. And evcerybody is making the most of it.
We have a surprise Special Guest drop in us adding his most excellent analysis and information. I'll give you one hint--his name rhymes with Gurney Wheel.
Topics of discussion--The Save (how can you NOT mention it?) and an unlikely (Game Winning) goal scorer.
We also take time to address listener correspondences including one detailed question about the suspension process.
Not unlike Our Washington Capitals, we had our share of adversity during the recording (thank you so damn much Skype) but also like our Caps we have persevered to bring you what we hope is a very entertaining and informative survival guide in the form of a fan podcast. We humbly thank all our loyal listeners for sticking by us and our team.

It is on to Las Vegas. Sin City. America's Playground. However you call it, it is where the 2018 Stanley Cup Final will be played. And our Washington Capitals will BE THERE!!
Anna and I moment to reflect on how and especially what the Caps won this past round---the Prince of Wales Trophy. SPOILER ALERT---there will be a history lesson. But then it wouldn't be the triple P without one.
Other topics of discussion--Is it Final or Final(s)? Is Vegas a 'deserving team"?
We also take some listener questions about the upcoming series. And we make one final plea to our fellow Caps fans to keep up the energy and intensity up and not let up until that glorious silver chalice is in Captain Alex Ovechkin's hands.

Fellow fans Our Washington Capitals have forced a seventh and deciding game in the 2018 NHL Eastern Conference Final. They are very much ALIVE!
Anna and I discuss how the Caps' reinvigorated attitude, and the backing of fans like you, helped the team right the ship and storm back in this series. They now stand one win away from playing for Lord Stanley's Cup, hockey's Holy Grail.
We also talk about how the....excitement...of NHL playoff hockey can affect the minds of its fans and their everyday behavior. Including when to schedule lawn care (for you Doug Loosararian!). Superstition may not be the way, unless you believe in the Washington Capitals.
Let us all band together loyal listeners and continue to support our favorite team on this wild ride!

Welcome to NHL playoff nirvana, my fellow Caps fans!
Yes the deed is done, and it is time to celebrate....or is it? We Capitals fans can enjoy finally beating the Penguins but only for so long. Keep in mind that two more series must be won to achieve hockey immortality.
Anna and I go over, from our own perspectives, how it was done and especially what it means to we the Washington Capitals fans. Enjoy!

We are in Round 2 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs with the Capitals surging past Columbus only to face an all too familiar foe. So far the series is even at one apiece.
Anna and I, in our own entertaining way, go over these first two games and try to keep up the positivity we Caps fans will need for the rest of this round. And also some good things happening ON the ice as well.
Keep your favorite beverage handy and enjoy!

Our Washington Capitals are on the comeback trail. Can they take the series tonight? We shall see. But the recent mass silence in the last home game is giving us extreme pause. So much so that I felt the need to appeal to ALL CAPS fans everywhere. Please listen and take it to heart.

Anna is off for this episode...
Christian Levesque of the True Caps Fans Facebook room joins the show again to provide his seasoned analysis of both the Caps' play of late as well as what to expect for this year's run at the Stanley Cup.
Among other notes and observations he also provides who he believes is the team's X factor going into the first round and beyond as well as his choice for the goaltending duties.
And yes Chris and I discuss the black-and-yellow elephant in the room...or are they?
Please join Anna and I later in the week for our regular show. But be sure to enjoy this one first--lots of quality information here and reason to hope if you're a Washington Capitals fan!
