Post-Game Talk: Washington Stanley Cup Champitals @ Yotes 9PM

[CapitalsCupReality]

2pt night!!!

I hope Ovie scores 15 empty netters this season.

Let me reiterate, I love that Reirden puts him out there, he has earned it.

 

[Blitzkrieg365]

The GOAT takes his rightful place at the top of the list again.

 

[Bladerunner]

Love Ovi getting the ENG

 

[kicksavedave]

Ovi!

Bura!!!!

Great win vs a good team. Yotes had won 4 straight.

 

[Corby78]

2 points, moving on

 

[Sam Spade]

Ovie was not coming off the ice until he got that goal

Well technically he couldn't come off the ice.

 

[AtNightWeFly]

My witchy powers are still in tact.

 

[Empty Goal Net]

I hope BMac was taking notes!

 

[troyerlaw]

Solid third period. Much needed win. AND an Ovie goal. AND a Bura sighting. Hurry up and get the hell out of town. (And if you can trade Bura on your way out ... even better.)

Feed the beast

 

[shtorm2005]

don't trade Bura, he's scoring when nobody is waiting from him, that's what u need in playoffs.

 

[twabby]

Nice win. A bit shaky to start but they locked it down toward the end. Copley is looking more comfortable of late too.

Also lol at that Vrana penalty shot attempt. Just skate fast and shoot next time.

 

[Ovie's Neighbor]

Well technically he couldn't come off the ice.

Agreed but he had a chance at the one minute mark and guys were standing at the bench waiting for him lol.

 

[Devil Dancer]

Love seeing Vrana score, he has a chance to be a big part of the future offensive core along with Kuzy.

 

[maacoshark]

Orlov looks worse, to me

Orlov has been brutal all season. Not as bad tonight though.

 

[Sam Spade]

You can really tell Vrana has so much confidence this season. Winning the Cup and being a contributor, not a passenger, has been huge for him I think.

He is coming along just fine.

really wondering whats up with him

 

[Sam Spade]

really wondering whats up with him

Now he is one player I could see being fatigued from all the hockey he's played.

 

[Islands]

i dont want bura to get traded. we need depth scoring in playoffs

 

[Bladerunner]

I like heading into Cbus this Saturday 1 pt above them instead of 1 pt behind them

All considering, a good come from behind W.

 

[maacoshark]

I think a lot of the problem might Niskanens play. His game seems to have regressed this year and I think its affected Orlovs game. Reirden did split them up for awhile and Orlov actually played better when he was paired with Carlson. Niskanen didnt play better with Kempny though.

 

[Sam Spade]

The secret, well not really a secret, is to avoid long periods of not getting any points. So far so good with the Caps, haven't lost more than two in a row yet.

So yer saying you don’t like Niskanen?

Hmmmmm......where have I heard that before?

(Oh and btw — Niskanen had 2pts and was the ”Player of the Game” from the broadcast booth....but carry on, my wayward son)
