    The Caps are back in Philadelphia and on this lovely Sunday afternoon we’ll see if they can cash in on their 3rd opportunity to eliminate the Flyers and move on to the 2nd round to face the Pittsburgh Penguins. The effort the Caps put out on Friday was phenomenal and if they can repeat it again tonight, I have a feeling dancing will be going on in the postgame.

    The stonewall that is Michal Neuvirth is still in net for the Flyers, Brooks Orpik is still hurt and I just woke up.

    Pregame

    Weber is in for Chorney. I don’t know why either.

    Caps lines for Game 6:
    8-19-77
    65-92-14
    25-10-90
    26-83-43
    27-2
    88-74
    6-9
    Holtby vs. Neuvirth

    Let’s hope his aim stays this way.

    Jake Voracek just shot a puck at the Caps' net to end warmups. He missed wide right. 20 years ago that would have sparked a brawl.

    Joe B only speaks truths.

    Mike Weber in the line-up today, has to play tough, but most importantly clean — penalty free. #CapitalsTalk pic.twitter.com/u3PDkXMUmd

    First Period

    Another lineup change. It looks like 90 and 65 have switched places.

    Burakovsky (0 pts) dropped to third line with Richards and Chimera. Johansson bumped up to second. Good call by Trotz. #CapitalsTalk

    — Chuck Gormley (@CharlesAGormley) April 24, 2016

    Again.

    Michal Neuvirth looks like he's wearing two left gloves. Trouble with rebound control. #CapitalsTalk

    — Chuck Gormley (@CharlesAGormley) April 24, 2016

    Let’s see if any of these end up on the ice today. That would be nice.

    CFTC: I’m so tired of Michal Neuvirth playing way above his actual talent level. Fine first period, have to score on this powerplay, because the calls will start going the other way. 0-0 after 1.

    Second Period

    The entire officiating crew has lost their minds.

    This entire officiating crew, including the linesmen need to wake up

    Backstrom slams one home to make it 1-0 Caps.

    Brayden Schenn jumps off a trampoline into a check targeted at Oshie’s head. Honest player.

    — Danny (@recordsANDradio) April 24, 2016

    CFTC: Another good period. Survived the utter nonsense from the refs and beat Neuvirth. Keep it up. Flyers will start taking more chances and we need to capitalize. 1-0 Caps after 2.

    Third Period

    Sit down 25.
