In this edition of the hotstove, we share our picks for the Washington Capitals vs Tampa Bay Lightning series. The Capitals lead their second-round series, 3-2 and can advance with a win tonight. He ranks fifth in the National Hockey League for goals-against average in the playoffs at 2.04, one spot ahead of Lightning netminder Andrei Vasilevskiy (2.20 GAA), who never allowed two or fewer goals in a playoff start coming into the 2018 postseason but has four starts surrendering just one goal already through 10 games of these playoffs. The Capitals won 6-3.
"You've got to give them credit", said coach Bruce Cassidy. To make matters worse, Washington had been eliminated in the second round by their rival three times since 2009.
After being tied after three periods, the teams went into overtime when F Evgeny Kuznetsov scored the series-winning goal at the 5:27 mark of overtime.

It's nearly unheard of during the postseason that teams have as much time off between series as the Lightning have had during these playoffs. In recent seasons the powerful Penguins have stood in their path. Otherwise, a Game 7 awaits the Nation's Capital later this week.
The Capitals have gotten the much-needed support from their secondary lines as well as their top-unit.
David Backes - The veteran Bruins forward was knocked out of Game Five on a hit by Lightning LW J.T. Miller. Oshie recorded 13 points. It's a good feeling getting by the Penguins because there's a lot of skeletons in the closet.

A London ambulance service spokesperson said: "We were called at 1:42pm today to Brixton road to reports of an incident". The victim has been taken to hospital and police have confirmed her injuries were not life-changing or life-threatening.
"It's a four-line effort. We're gonna win a game", Subban told reporters after the Jets routed the Predators 6-2 in Game 5.
Despite the newness of the Conference Final for the Caps, the Lightning expect this series to be the most hard one yet. The Bruins played three nights prior to Game 1 in Tampa in a do-or-die Game 7 against Toronto to keep its season alive and were already at peak playoff intensity. His playoff numbers are also superb; he has 105 points in 109 career games and is almost a point-per-game postseason player.
Beyond the Taylor and Timberlake concerts, there are no events planned at Amalie Arena for the remainder of May when the Eastern Conference Final is played.
Well, the answer is Sidney Crosby and the Penguins, along with poor goaltending in key situations.
Pittsburgh has won the last two Stanley Cups. Going into the 2017 NHL Playoffs, Holtby had statistically the best goaltending stats in postseason history with a.938 SV % in a minimum of 20 starts.
The Washington Capitals are moving on. Pittsburgh spoiled Tampa Bay's aspirations of a second-straight Stanley Cup Final. The Bolts swept the Capitals in the second round in 2011 when Washington was the top-overall seed. But they ran into a team that was both better on paper and on the ice. This series will come down to goaltending and whether or not Holtby will be able to out-duel Vezina Trophy finalist, Andrei Vasilevskiy. The puck will drop at 8 p.m.
Ryan Reaves - With William Carrier injured, the Golden Knights turned to the enforcer (rather than Tomas Tatar or Tomas Nosek) to fill a fourth-line spot in Game Six at San Jose, and Reaves had a strong game (16 for, 9 against, 64.0 CF%, 9-3 scoring chances).
