GDT: G16: Buffaloes vs Tom Wilson - 7pm EST

[LesDiablesRouges]

Beck gives me a f***ing raging boner. Such a competitor.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Almost a heroic effort….

 

[HTFN]

I just don’t think DK has been settled ever with this team struggling to create a new identity. I feel like DK inserted behind a great lineup could backstop another Cup still.

I think when a fanbase tells you they won the cup in spite of somebody, it might be accurate. That's cutting through the rose tint and just telling it like it is.

 

[Raikkonen]

Almost said that DK strikes back against HFB goalie experts. But they scored one unfortunately.

 

[ClevelandCapsfan]

Darcy never moved. When screened you need to adjust your position in the crease.

 

[SecretaryofDefense5]

Oof.

Fan bases also immediately turn on those who leave….I mean if they won despite him, so be it, I just don’t remember it that way.

 

[Calicaps]

shoot the f***ing puck.

 

[HTFN]

that was trash, just awful.

 

[um]

Trigger shy Ovie is very annoying.

 

[Planetov]

So many passes into Ovie’s skates…

 

[usiel]

Don't understand why Carson can no longer setup AO in the right spot for the one timers.

 

[pman25]

Carlson walks down Main Street and passes up the shot to feed it to Ovis skates on the half wall. Awesome

Yeah I thought he made some good saves during that 5-3 and was about to post how bad the Sabres are then they scored lol

 

[SecretaryofDefense5]

That PP is ass. Good thing their PK is good because a lot of coaches in the league would lose their job for a PP that bad alone.

 

[Capitals40]

Sabres have a player all the way out on ovie...caps can make it essentially 4 on 3 pp and dont

 

[Capsman]

OV is a liability out there on the PP.

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

OV is a liability out there on the PP.

If they keep on blindly flinging pucks in his skates, then yes, he is useless.

 

[PlushMinus]

It is hilarious how we all wanted Blaine gone and the PP is now worse without him

 

[Coldplay619]

If Carlson is struggling to put pucks in Ovi's wheelhouse change the formation yo!

Or put Sandin there!

 

[notDkristich]

i'm behind...but

Don't understand why Carson can no longer setup AO in the right spot for the one timers.

when was he able to do this? he's has always been >75% into OV's skates. proof? read my comment history

 

[PlushMinus]

Columbus up 7-1 over the Hawks after 2 periods. Even Laine has a goal.

 

[VaCaps Fan]

They are selling white screaming eagle Ovechkin rookie jersey!

 

[notDkristich]

PP1 needs to move into 5 Fwd setup

McMichael - Strome - Protas
OV - Mantha

Protas posts up in front of the goalie. Where do i collect my paycheck?

 

[pman25]

I’m begging for anything new on the PP.

Carbs should try his set up with the leafs last year. Put guys on their strong side if you can’t set up a one timer anymore. Move Strome/McMichael/Mantha to the left side wall, Ovechkin to the right side wall and let them catch and shoot or work the puck low. It can at the very least allow for more decisiveness even if you are abandoning the one timer

Instead we are just relying on Carlson to set up an Ovi one timer. Which isn’t working. Ovi has been too picky. Carlson can’t dish it like that lately. So get rid of it
