GDT: Washington vs. Car

[Tryamw]

4-1 Caps.. backstrom EN

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

Snooze

 

[Canes]

Pathetic 3rd period.

 

[dogbazinho]

Yeah Aho was coasting there. Very disappointing.

 

[A Star is Burns]

Pathetic 3rd period.

Wasn't a great game in general. They better figure out what they're fighting for by Thursday.

 

[Canes]

Ovechkin will just get his 50th on Thursday in PNC Arena.

And maybe his 51st and 52nd.

 

[AeroFishOne]

I like how Aho just watched that puck behind the net

 

[w e l o s t b o y s]

doesn't even look like the same team

 

[Navin R Slavin]

Not nearly good enough tonight. Take a lesson and play way harder on Thursday.

 

[Cardiac Jerks]

Hockey god hates canes..

You make your own fate. Canes sure didn’t look like a team fighting for a playoff spot in a game against their likely first round opponent.

 

[The Faulker 27]

Well we knew they wouldn't win both, so I'd much rather it be in Raleigh.

 

[A Star is Burns]

Yeah Aho was coasting there. Very disappointing.

He certainly didn't look like he cared that the puck was easily attainable by him. Very weird.

 

[Finnish Jerk Train]

A well-deserved loss. Just have to put it behind us and get after them on Thursday.

 

[Lempo]

We lost Cotton?

 

[AeroFishOne]

Pathetic game really. Everyone seemed a step behind.

 

[Canes]

You make your own fate. Canes sure didn’t look like a team fighting for a playoff spot in a game against their likely first round opponent.

If they keep trying to come from behind every game, we'll be lucky to be Tampa's sacrificial lambs.

 

[Ahoy there]

Good game to show that we really need more talent. No jumping off a cliff here; I still see us in the p/o and making a little noise. Just noooooot quite there yet.

 

[My Special Purpose]

Yeah, if I'm a division-winner, I'm not scared of facing the Canes. We just don't show up every night.

 

[My Special Purpose]

Good game to show that we really need more talent. No jumping off a cliff here; I still see us in the p/o and making a little noise. Just noooooot quite there yet.

But we had plenty of talent playing 20 games over .500 the past 40 games, right? It's not talent. We didn't show up.

 

[Navin R Slavin]

Yep. Talent gap was clear tonight.

 

[Ahoy there]

If they keep trying to come from behind every game, we'll be lucky to be Tampa's sacrificial lambs.

f*** the way we looked against them compared to tonight, I'd rather play them. They're dangerous as f*** but not the possession mongers like the Caps. We weren't dangerous at all tonight

 

[Canes]

Not me. The only time I want to play Tampa again is if we manage to make the Eastern Conference finals.

Kucherov and Point look like they're going to score every time they touch the ice.

 

[WreckingCrew]

Not nearly good enough tonight. Take a lesson and play way harder on Thursday.

Low bar to set lol

 

[HisIceness]

Not a good night to lose, especially in regulation. No help from the Cats or Islanders tonight. At least we're still in our spot.

But Columbus and Montreal play each other Thursday night, and you know that one is probably going to be a 3 point game, so we better win Thursday night. There's no alternative, have to win Thursday night.

 

[Ahoy there]

But we had plenty of talent playing 20 games over .500 the past 40 games, right? It's not talent. We didn't show up.

Yes and no. I agree we did... but as I look at our recent play against TOP contenders, it's a very different game (and this isn't even the p/o yet.) There have not been many games over the last 20 were it seemed like we had virtually zero possession time in the offensive zone... all game. We were simply outmatched tonight. I don't see that as a knock on either our guy or our effort, just not quite up to par on the talent level. Not Ottawa off, mind you
