Friday night, the Washington Capitals will take on the Tampa Bay Lightning and play in the third round for the first time in 20 years.
To get there, the Capitals beat the Pittsburgh Penguins – a team they had previously lost nine out of 10 playoff series to. One fan, Vincent Kempski, epicly captured the mood of the series with this hype video.
