The Pittsburgh Penguins may not have played on Monday night, but our second round matchup had been set after the Washington Capitals defeated the Columbus Blue Jackets in 6 games to win their first round series.
The Washington Capitals were down 0-2 to the Blue Jackets but showed resilience to comeback and win 4 games straight. They’ll be hungry for a series win, but I know we’ll be hungrier.
History Has Our Backs
The Penguins faced the Capitals in round 2 last playoffs, in which we won in 7 games. In fact, history has given the Penguins favour over the Capitals in previous years.
