Post-Game Talk: Caps @ Flyers 8pm Rivalry Nightâ„¢

[Capitals40]

Caps still owe one, or two, to Schenn do they not?

Yes they do.

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

People say that a lot here. What does that even mean? It's not good, but how is it unacceptable? Are we returning an item here?

Turd Ferguson always deals in absolutes.

 

[AlexBrovechkin8]

Winnik has been horrendous.

I like Burt but I find him arguably one of the softest players in the league. He's got a phenomenal shot but I don't get how he isn't scoring more.. Then again I haven't managed to see them play nearly as much as last year.

Winnik has been horrendous.

Terrible first period.

He was one of our better players against Montreal though - so hopefully he starts playing like that - b/c he's playing like he's about to get scratched next game tonight.

Wait, we are at the Flyers??? make perfect sense now why the crowd booed carlson for not moving puck at the end of the 1st

 

[Barry Amsterdam]

Lol Kuzy u suck

 

[SimplySensational]

Stick on hand, no penalty....

 

[bur and 666 others]

Kuznetsov can't buy a goal

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

Good goal.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Terrible. Our guys looked like they were on for a casual skate...

 

[g00n]

that overhead view is not directly over the plane of the goal line

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Over paid goalie can't stop wrap arounds

 

[Turd Ferguson]

If only Holtby's arm was a wee bit stronger

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

Not sure why this is taking so long...

 

[Coldplay619]

Terrible. Our guys looked like they were on for a casual skate...

No stick for Williams.

 

[g00n]

damn system

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

Looks like Carlson's stick prevented Holtby from getting his glove on that puck before it crossed the line.

 

[Colin226]

Not for nothing but I feel like a true overhead shot of the post/crossbar would have at least made it seem closer...

 

[Barry Amsterdam]

damn system

Not the systems fault

 

[HTFN]

that overhead view is not directly over the plane of the goal line

It's like I'm taking crazy pills. What happened to the crossbar cameras?, because everything even remotely tight doesn't make that look nearly as obvious as their top down feed.

 

[g00n]

Not the systems fault

the system giveth and the system taketh away

 

[AtNightWeFly]

Holtby has had quite a few blunders this season.
The one against Boston infuriated me for days!

 

[g00n]

fans chanting holtby in a 1-1 tie lol

 

[SpinningEdge]

We had the one chance w/ Kuzy - but this is getting ridiculous.

Caps owned and played a great first period - just like they did starting out VS Montreal.

So in second they literally come out and give up the first like 5 shots of 2nd period and Flyers kept pushing and pushing and now It's tied.

This happens way too much. No wonder this team has blown more 2 goal leads this year than last year ALREADY.

KILLER INSTINCT seems nonexistent. It's a concern Caps very rarely ever blow a team out. Pitt the other night won 7-2 and you get that from time to time w/ them. Caps have been going to shootouts w/ lottery teams and holding on for 1 goal wins consistently. It'd be nice if they could put together a few string of wins in dominating fashion and show us what they can acdtually do in a 60 minute game, because we have NO IDEA. We get one good period, MAYBE half a good game of hockey from the Caps these days. 60 minutes is RARE if ever any more and it's a huge concern.
