Caps players’ thoughts on tonight’s game:



Trotz’s take on tonight’s game:

 

[Herbert Lewis]

I am no troll,I just root for the underdogs, and if you beat my Bolts later on down the road, well I can live with that as long as you win the CUP!!!!!!!

 

[cbj21]

Not much sleep last night as it ended in the early mornings for me but well worth it.
Fantastic game and comeback. Never say die Jackets!!

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Has anyone been able to dig up highlights that features the USA Network broadcast? Every highlight I find has FSO or the Caps guys. I want to hear how Gord Miller called the game.

 

[EspenK]

Just watched the 3rd period & OT thru the miracle of dvr'g and me remembering to record the next game in case of ot. Panarin's goal was a thing of beauty. Possibly the best goal I've ever seen a Jacket score and definitely one of the, if not the, most important. Hopefully that breaks the Caps spirit and the Jackets can win again Sunday. Great game.

 

[CharlotteJacket]

Haven't heard too many fire Brad Larson comments lately.

 

[CharlotteJacket]

Jackets and Sharks were the only visitor winners for the first game.

 

[Socks]

I have awakened on this, the morning after we took our first lead in a series. And it is good.

I’m going to f***ing hate my life in about 12 hours. But it’s worth it.

I had a nice night

[Double-Shift Lasse]

Apologies if I'm late to the pun game, but a friend of mine just said #YeastMode.

 

[MoeBartoli]

Hmmm....that's quite counterintuitive. One would suspect winning the firstborn game on the road would produce the higher number, but maybe it's because being on the road means you're the underdog and also lack home ice for game 7.

 

[Speedy Sanderson]

Some similarities to game 2 of the 2014 playoffs against the Pens (which I attended). Gave up the first two goals of the game on the road, got a couple power play goals, including one late, to send the game to overtime. Panarin's goal was more dramatic than Calvert's, but both will be remembered.

 

[Monk]

It's really reasonable. Only an MFRONE "SERIES OVER" post that I recall when Caps up 2-0.

That was the post I opened my phone's browser up to this morning. Got a good chuckle out of that one. What a sad sack.

 

[Inglewood JACKets]

What a fantastic game to watch. The Jackets were controlling the first...up until the penalties of course. Bob looked good. I can only put one of those goals on him. Let's go take game 2. Go Jackets!

 

[KJ Dangler]

If bread resigns here, I predict he’s the first player to have his name hanging from the rafters. Kid is an elite player , and man was Jones , and Dubois absolute beasts last night. Bob looked like regular bob, and played very well, has to be huge for his confidence. Jarmo has put together a very good team

I would say Bob would. He's older and would retire first, most likely. Can't see another 72 here if he re-signs.

 

[DEF]

According to every website but CBC, we didn't win this game, Caps lost it.

 

[The Jones Zone]

Good, let them believe that, and the team we play next round too

 

[ReggieRed]

Interesting stat I hadn't heard before: CBJ are 3-1 all time in PO games going to OT, 1-11 in games ending in regulation.

 

[CarolinaBlueJacket]

Nobody talking about Foligno's save last night? That was incredible!

 

[JacketFanInFL]

Series over

Way to no show Jackets

Never forget.

 

[JacketFanInFL]

The announcers didn't even mention it. I've watched it a couple times and it was a huge play.

 

[JacketFanInFL]

Cam could play goalie.

 

[CarolinaBlueJacket]

It happened so fast that I don't think anybody noticed it but I am calling it the play of the game. Without this there is no Panarin goal in OT.
