Post-Game Talk: Pre-season game 3 vs Flyers

[TheLegendOfPatPeake]

I don't disagree but is anyone surprised? It's got to take, like... weeks and months to shake off the amount of rust he's accumulated

He literally had the puck flat on the ice and on his forehand...rust or not that should have been cleared. I don’t think he would disagree.

I totally forgot Ristolainen is now on the Flyers lol

You're not wrong, but I think the guy is just in his own head. When it's not the speed of the game it's trust in his body, it's all going to take time.

Hope they try Leason and Protas together some as those two were great on the same line in the WHL. Sum-of-the-parts synergy with them...

this might be a Hershey line combo

 

[tenken00]

The Flyers really really hate Hath a lot huh. Lol

 

[Cappy76]

Hathaway worries about his spot in the lineup? He’s stirring it up a lot

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Pilon still sucks

 

[ArmadilloThumb]

this might be a Hershey line combo

And maybe a Caps one in a couple of years, if Leason/Protas can regain and build on the chemistry and production they had together!

 

[HTFN]

Sheesh. I mean who cares about preseason refs but between the scrum and this soft ass call Caps aren't getting many favors.

 

[tenken00]

I love Fever's game. Makes mistakes but he's always at least in position to make it awkward for the opposing player.

 

[HTFN]

Snively's got something. He makes good plays even when the walls are closing in and has pretty good hands.

 

[tenken00]

Pretty chippy for a preseason game.

 

[IafrateOvie34]

Protas looks like a giant on the ice.

I forgot the Flyers have Atkinsson now. He was a Caps's killer in Columbus.

 

[Eirikrautha]

Lot's of Flyers shots, not much happening on the Caps offense. The PP was a bunch of passes. Meh.

Well it is the Flyers full opening day lineup pretty much lol.

Considering that, we should be losing soundly. So I don't know if it's a positive for us or a negative for them...

True. But they still can shoot (theoretically)...

Sammy has been playing pretty well. Some wild rebounds early on, but good showing so far.

 

[tenken00]

Whoaaa Kempny. Watch where you put your stick lol. Right under Sammy's helmet lolol

 

[TheLegendOfPatPeake]

Geisser has been decent.

 

[Eirikrautha]

Pretty good recovery on the stretch pass and a good save by Sammy.

 

[tenken00]

What?! Lol. Wells Fargo gets a lighting issue in the upper bowl so they just end the second period?

If it's an expected delay they just roll the time on to the beginning of the third, although in the preseason they may just scrap it for kicks since it doesn't matter.
