Post-Game Talk: Capitals vs. BJs at 7pm

[twabby]

Grubauer is getting the start so that Holtby can play the Penguins. The lines were something like this:

8-83-65
90-19-77
82-92-14
26-20-43

Apparently Chorney is in for Schmidt again tonight per Isabelle.

I feel a losing streak coming....

Hard to see them getting up for this game...

Final score: CBJ 10 - WSH 0.

You heard it here first.

Wennberg and Dubinsky are on my fantasy team, so maybe it's for the best that they don't get up.

Maybe it's just me but i feel pretty confident about that game. Brutal last game and i'm sure Trotz has paid some attention to the scoreboard for CBJ's last 3 home games. 8 goals scored on the Blues and 10 on the Habs. If they crap the bed again and have to listen to that cannon 5+ times tonight, heads will roll.

Predicting win today and then return to the comfortable mediocrity with a loss to Penguins tomorrow.

they're on mine too, that's a pretty big coincidence.

Eller will play 4C minutes? What about his confidence? I thought he came here to be our 3C

 

[Old Guy]

CBJ Fan .....here in peace.

If you haven't seen him watch #8 on the other team. We can't help but watch your #8.

Zack Werenski shows real promise on the blue line.

I'm just wondering how on God's green Earth Tortorella is coaching an offensive team again. I thought he was done with the run and gun since he won the Cup with the Lightning.

Werenski has been the biggest surprise of the year so far. I didn't know about him this summer.

 

[twabby]

Columbus is a bad team on a hot streak. I'll be disappointed if the Capitals don't carry the play.

 

[Langway]

Some of us got to see a good bit of Werenski in the Calder Cup final series. My only question was how long his defensive game would mature because it was clear he had dynamic offensive instincts. He's proven the later early on. I haven't watched their games but his advanced stats at least are very strong.

CBJ's second and third D pairings are pretty bad. That alone should help with territorial play.

 

[trick9]

Zach Werenski really caught the eye and was really good at the last WJC. Propably the best D on that tournament along with Juolevi. Provorov was good there too but i've always been bit surprised of the praise he was getting all along when Werenski in reality was always right there neck and neck with him.

The Pens game is looming....kinda hoping our best performance is the next one if I have to choose, and with this team, you usually have to choose on some nights....lol.

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Lots of goals with the new lines

[Calicaps]

Is anyone still awake?

 

[twabby]

So many whistles

 

[GoCaps2004]

****ing snoozefest. I'm falling asleep.

 

[Blitzkrieg365]

These lines confuse me

 

[HTFN]

Niskanen looks like garbage. Three bad clears through the center of the ice already.

 

[Calicaps]

WTF was that shift?
