Yeah, of course it is easy to pick Capitals as the team to wish from top4, that goes without saying. Bad form and with the physical style VSV play you can easily take out Gratton or M. Rodman...and Capitals is like a dead fish in the water.
However I still think Capitals will beat VSV, Alba Vola or Zagreb in a quarter finals. KAC will be harder.
if Capitals really beats VSV (and I mean rather after the full series of matches) then they defenitely will have used up all their energy (e.g. injured or suspended players) and they consequently will be an easy victim for the next opponent. Myself I hope for the Capitals in PO, whatever the result will be it will be a great fight.
