This is simple. The Capitals have the best goalie in this contest (Huet is better than every Flyer goalie since Hextall circa the late 80's) and the best player. (’07-08 Hart Trophy winner Kvetchin’ Ovechkin) The Capitals have been one of the hottest teams as of late while the Flyers were leading the division a few months ago and barely made the playoffs. Most of the Capitals are healthy. A significant amount of the Flyers aren’t. It won’t be as easy as I made it out to be, but the Caps got this.
The Pick: Caps in 6.
And as for my picks for the rest of the playoffs:
First round: Penguins over Senators in 5, Canadiens over Bruins in 5, Wings over Predators in 6, Flames over Sharks in 7 (Thornton is the A-Rod of the NHL), Avalanche over Wild in 6, Ducks over Stars in 7
Second Round: Penguins over Rangers in 7 (Best series of the playoffs), Canadiens over Capitals in 5, Wings over Flames in 5, Ducks over Avs in 6,
Conference Finals: Penguins over Canadiens in 6, Wings over Ducks in 7
Finals: PENGUINS OVER WINGS IN 5 (No pressure, Mahatma & Yinzer)
MVP: Sidney Crosby

Would you even recognize hockey if it came up and bit you in the ass?
