Post-Game Talk: Capitals @ Flyers, 7:00

[Calicaps]

Did Trotz have the sense to call time out?

 

[troyerlaw]

Nice shift, Ovie. Nice leadership

 

[bur and 666 others]

That's what you get when your big gun don't step up and with rookies in D. We don't have depth. I'm not worried about young Ds, i believe in them, but our F is worrying me much. When Kuzya's line is having off-night, we are in trouble

Did Trotz have the sense to call time out?

What for? It won't fix anything.

Did Trotz have the sense to call time out?

You mean the guy that made Chorness happen? No.

 

[Capitals40]

Ouch..Toronto must be licking their chops.

 

[Calicaps]

What for? It won't fix anything.

Just to stem the tide. The last five minutes were chaos.

 

[Langway]

Djoos may have been their best defender tonight. I'm sure that's fine.

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

Come on, make it 10

 

[troyerlaw]

Another nice shift, Ovie

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

Just to stem the tide. The last five minutes were chaos.

That's assuming they even care about winning this game.

 

[GoCaps2004]

this reminds of literal peewee hockey. that rebound sat in the slot with no one going after it for like 3 seconds lmao

 

[Calicaps]

Jeebus...

 

[Calicaps]

That's assuming they even care about winning this game.

Winning?! I'm just thinking of not giving up double digits.

 

[troyerlaw]

what is ness at? like -6?

Nope. -1.

Ovie & kuz, on the other hand, -4.

And at least Ness kept skating hard.

 

[Acallabeth]

This looks like 2 teams from entirely different leagues.

 

[Calicaps]

Poor Gruby.

 

[Calicaps]

Of course the Devils and Pens won today.

 

[AtNightWeFly]

This looks like 2 teams from entirely different leagues.

Flyers are hyped up because its their home opener plus they're better than last year. And Caps are tired and crippled.

 

[Raikkonen]

0 points, Lloyd.

 

[Bladerunner]

Awful, at 5-2 they just packed it in to get blown out. Not completely unexpected - b2b, porous D.

Was hoping some Caps could add to their stats instead Philly is

 

[Calicaps]

Oh thank Christ that's over.

 

[troyerlaw]

Why is Chiasson with Kuznetsov and Ovechkin?

To try to stem the bleeding.

Ovie and kuz finished game -4.

Trotz was trying to keep game from getting out of hand.

Didn’t work.

 

[Acallabeth]

Embarrassment.
Young guys didn't help themselves in coaches' eyes.

 

[troyerlaw]

Ness? Enough said, I really can’t find any redeeming value in the guy.

He has speed, and he hustles. Most of team forgot about the second part tonight.

I get that it was B2B, but we looked slow, sloppy, and tired from opening drop.
