It's such a legendary tale that Washington Capitals coach Barry Trotz has heard all about it. ''Justin just started chuckling when it was pretty tense,'' Trotz said. Jerod Mayo Jersey''Everybody looked at him and (he) just said, 'I'm going to enjoy celebrating a Cup with you guys tonight.' Sometimes that's very powerful. It's not a big speech. It's knowing the moment.''

He talked about erring on the side of enthusiasm and not apprehension and exuded calm confidence. ''This time of year, it's the intangible qualities that the team brings together,'' Williams said Friday. ''The confidence that everyone can bring. The not-hanging-your- head attitude.
