$\"\"$ The irony of my interest in tonight’s NHL playoff Game 7 between the Washington Capitals and New York Rangers<\/a> is that the Rangers got me interested in the sport, but I want to see nothing more than their painful demise tonight.<\/p>\n

As I wrote a year ago<\/a>, a cable channel showing the Rangers in 1979 sparked my hockey fandom. I have gone up and down in my interest in the sport, but after a year or two watching the rangers, I gravitated towards the Caps. I believe that you need a real connection to the team you support, and the Caps are the closest team to where I grew up. I got a chance to go see a handful of games in the early 1980s at the old Cap Centre<\/a>, and followed them via the old Home Team Sports channel.<\/p>\n

The arrival of Alexander Ovechkin and some playoff excitement from last season had me keeping an eye on the team this year. I have gotten more interested in this playoff series and plan on watching Game 7 tonight. I just hope we don’t have a repeat of last year’s playoff series against the Flyers<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If that happens, there is no way I am returning to following the Rangers. The thought turns my stomach. Let’s go Caps!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
