That's only if he Caps also lose. The Rangers will lose if they're going to think about the next round now. They still have a game left this round.
Nah Caps had their chance and blew it: leading with less than 90 seconds remaining in game 5 and then going home for game 6 and running out of time, they had the chance to snag a 2nd win in New York already and blew it, so they are done.
Montreal last year in playoffs won 4 straight against TB, while the lightning reeled off 8 in a row in the regular season (all 5 regular season games) and the first 3 games of this series. They may as well not even take the flight to Montreal.

We'll see. Tonight it's winner take all game 7. What happened in the previous 6 games means nothing. It's not over until the fat lady sings...
Capitals could easily have won that game if Lundqvist had slipped up for even a second. They dominated the first 8 minutes or so of overtime. No real Ranger fan thinks that was a win to gloat about by saying the other team choked...they didn't choke. Choking is losing that game 3-0 in game 7 after being up 3-1 in the series..they lost every game by 1 goal and Rangers only came back in series after a lucky skate redirects Kreiders shot (that would have been wide) at the end of game 5. Prior to that they were getting completely stifled by the Caps.
I think the Rangers will do better against the smaller Tampa Bay team that plays more like they do, even though they are a better offensive team than the caps. They can't be as physical as Washington was.
Capitals outplayed Rangers throughout the series, no doubt.
But the Rangers did it!!!
Time for Tampa.
