Post-Game Talk: A hockey game will be played tonight vs the Sharks

[Corby78]

Vrana is really starting to find his place. I was honestly worried that we were going to kill his growth.

 

[Ridley Simon]

And FAK Joe Thornton. He knew what he was doing. Should be suspended for that. You don't hip check someone's head into the boards. Period.

I only saw the replay but didn't the shark player have the puck? Oshie checked him but never had the puck. Why was he taking a hit at all?

No the puck was gone

It’s Big Willy style tonight! Atta boy Jake!

 

[troyerlaw]

Wilson with anotjer beautiful pass (on the Eller chance). He is playing a hell of a game

 

[Corby78]

Why are the Caps back on the PP, I'm watching without sound?

Braun pissed at Wilson and hooked him

 

[txpd]

Ovy is almost never challenged.

Ov is not challenged not just because he is a star. He is a tank. He doesn't intimidate. You cant even knock him over. Not sure
they really want to mess with him

 

[MrGone]

slight over reaction based on 40 minutes of play

I have been saying this for a while. I am not sure if it was the 3rd or 4th time Holtby was out played by a lesser goalie in the playoffs. It was always sell high and now even more so with Gruber being ready.

Maybe we can get lucky and Holtby can reach the Craig Anderson level someday.

The Sharks are rattled, they're taking penalties left and right.

 

[maacoshark]

Hard working #43 and #13. First time in years that the second unit scores.

That was excellent work by Wilson. Gets the primary assist and draws a penalty on the play

He drew 3 or 4 penalties tonight and has an assist. He's my first star of the game.

Let's get Ovechkin another goal here. Grind down the Sharks

Yawn. You and your haterade. Like clockwork.

Dude I'm sorry, you don't trade a franchise goalie in the middle of his career, and especially not the best goalie your franchise has ever had. We keep him, his number goes up in the rafters.

 

[maacoshark]

Please sell high on Holtby and let Gruber be the man guy. It could be a win on many levels.

Give it a rest

 

[g00n]

lol every time Grubauer doesn't get shellacked someone shows up to start the "trade holtby" argument. Like clockwork.

 

[Corby78]

reminds me of when the pens self destructed and went all hanson brothers a few years ago.......or was that last year, I don't remember

 

[maacoshark]

I've seen it, its troubling. I'm not asking for "Slap Shot," I'm just not sold that banning fighting is really going to make hockey safer. And no I don't have the answer....

It doesn't make hockey safer. The reason fighting was allowed in hockey was because each player us carrying a lethal weapon in their hands. It was so guys wouldn't retalliate with their sticks.

I'm stuck watching the Sharks feed ("Joe didn't know Oshie was down....it obviously wasn't intentional?!?!") ---

Any news on TJ? I'm assuming concussion and a few weeks missed. Ugh.

 

[troyerlaw]

boyd looks good IMO

Sharks broadcast team sucks.

 

[Zusammenhalt]

Congratulations to Travis Boyd on his first NHL game!

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

f*** the Sharks. Garbage team.

 

[g00n]

It's almost like the Sharks don't like having their guaranteed win in DC taken away
