Carlson is most likely gone. He will be fetching huge money on the market as there are basically no other high end defensemen out there this year. There are trade rumors around some guys but nothing else in the free agent market to speak of.
And I don't find the past two months to be a waste of time. There were some great series and performances. The only disappointment for me is that the playoffs are over and it is 4 months until puck drop.
At last, school is over. My written exam is tomorrow and the practical is on the 29th. I am half between "I got this" and "oh god what if I fail". But excited to be almost there.
Regardless what side you were on, it was a great series. I know a lot of people talk about how great of a story Vegas was. I think Washington's was equally compelling.
Watching Ovi almost cry at getting to lift the Cup made me melt a little. Unbelievable season for both teams, I wonder if any of the Caps are gonna leave in Free Agency...
Howdy,
Bummer to have the Vegas dream season end that way. Happy for Ovi to finally get a cup and happy for the Caps fans, even if I'd have preferred to have all their dreams dashed by Vegas going on a 3 game run and stealing it. :-)
