They need "unlikely heroes". Too much talent loaded on their top 6 and I feel like just grinders filling out their bottom 6. Teams with skill on their 3rd line just seem to grind these close kind of playoff series out. Seeing it this year with Hagelin-Bonino-Kessel becoming the Penguins "go-to line", and saw it last year with the Hawks' third line (Sharp-Vermette-Teravainen) getting them through the wars. Go back every year and those third are becoming the difference.
The Capitals should have tried calling up Jakub Vrana for this series.
