Post-Game Talk: Caps Isles 700

[4thTierSport]

You'll read here that it won't mean anything. Isles stink and are tired from playing 3 in 4.

I meant the comical way the Pens played that game. It would be nice to see the Caps win by 2+ but really 2 points and I don't care.

Glad Vrana's wearing a decent number. #getoffmylawn

It won't happen with Trotz, but I really wish he'd tell the 65 - 92 - 13 line to just go be great. Let them get loose and try to reign them in instead of making them play super hard systemically and trying to grow from their.

I think you would not like the realities of cutting these three players loose to play how they wanted to have the two defensemen trying to read and figure out. Odd man rushes against all night

Sorry but we can't be afraid of going on the rush. We score a lot of goals that way.

You pay your Vezina goalie and stock your top 4 defense so you can attack.

Getting pinned in your own end is the bigger concern.

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

At this time of the year last season, the Caps almost put Papa Johns into bankruptcy by scoring 4 goals every damn game. I'm hoping to see our offense back.

Sweet starting the 4th line...

 

[Brian23]

Lets hope he keeps that up. Good creativity for that backhand shot.

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

Vrana already with a great chance. Love it

 

[g00n]

You can tell the n00b, using the backhand sticks out

 

[Hivemind]

1:20 into his first NHL game, Vrana has already generated as many high grade scoring chances as Sanford did in 19 games.

 

[Dream Big]

Jakub Vrana.

Welcome to the NHL.

May you have a long and successful career.

 

[hockeyfan88]

Vrana looked good on that first shift!

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

Great pressure by Wilson on the PK

 

[Brian23]

I wish PK Wilson played the entire game. No idea why he can't generate the same when he's got an extra man on the ice.

Kuz with the one-touch pizza right up the slot

 

[aonb]

curious if ladd is as bad as everyone is saying

 

[Carlzner]

Kuz with the one-touch pizza right up the slot

Way too strong of a pass from Carlson.

Way too strong of a pass from Carlson.

It wasn't meant for Kuzya. It was going cross ice to someone up at the blueline.

 

[RandyHolt]

I prefer a lot less graciousness in my losses.

Parlaying the under will cause one to want a team to lose graciously...

 

[Hivemind]

2nd line was starting to get something going, then Nisky bombs it into traffic despite having Kuzy open to continue the cycle. *sigh*

 

[Hivemind]

Keep those rotations going. It's causing chaos among the collapsing, passive Islanders defensive zone coverage.

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

We had a good PP, 2 full minutes of zone time but Ovi missed two great chances and Nisky was only hitting shin pads.

 

[hockeyfan88]

Good PP by the first unit.

Halak is playing well so far.
