They had 6 rookies starting PLUS a rookie goalie making his 9th freaking playoff start. Not to mention their "big guys" barely even showing up to play in the series.

I had Caps season tickets for three years… I enjoyed every game EXCEPT Penguins, Rangers, and Bruins. Fanaticism at its scariest. I  literally feared for my life at those games.

Always thought Pens fans were the worst. Never had any problems with Bruins fans. Really thought Pens and Flyers fans were the worst of the worst.

booooooooooooo:

"The 2016 Stanley Cup Final was one of the lowest-rated National Hockey League title tilts since the sport returned to NBC 11 years ago. And while partisans can offer up more excuses for the weak turnout than there are gaps in Brent Burns' smile, the fact remains that hockey simply is no longer a consistent TV draw."
