Post-Game Talk: Wilsonton Capitals vs Parallaxed Penguins - Game 2

[NoMoreChoking]

Orlov is not in lineup tonight. Chorney is in

His 6 min of ice time last game says it all

They were pissed at him and rightfully so

 

[philip]

I thought Schmidt was just as bad

 

[hockeykicker]

Dan O’Halloran and Kevin Pollock are tonight's refs

 

[strungout]

Win it for the Pierre/Penguin gif!!!

Hopefully it wakes him up. He's been terrible. Schmidt should wake up quickly or he's going to pay a visit to the press box too.

the **** is going on here?

He's been playing with zero confidence and almost cost them G1. As Trotz said before the playoffs, the team doesn't have time to let guys work their game and get the kinks out. Either produce or sit. Schmidt is about there as well. Very happy that Orpik is back or this could be a big problem.

 

[BrooklynCapsFan]

Wow.

The Corsi King is in???? 43-0 Caps.

 

[ForzaItalia]

It's all about confidence and right now it looks like Orlov has very little of it.

[Carlzner]

Win.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Tcb....

Win.

 

[Capathetic]

Just keep wearing them out with possession,hits and clogging up the neutral zone. I think this is the game the second line breaks through. 3-1 Caps.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

2nd line must contribute on the scoresheet. Play simple, don't overpass and get pucks on net and crash it.

Keep taking the body and the Pens will wilt again. I want home ice defended. Make it so.

 

[ForzaItalia]

Yep. Second line needs to start finding the net for some goals. Going up 2-0 in the series would be huge.

This thread was posted at 1:56 AM Atlantic Time here in Nova Scotia. Hopefully that should be enough to keep us safe.

Ready to see what Playoff God Oshie has up his sleeve.

 

[Blades of Steel]

well at least they notice too

@SWhyno
Williams on #Caps' 2nd line struggles: "We’re certainly aware of it and we’re looking to respond and introduce ourselves to the playoffs."

The Mike Green tactic that other teams would use on us. Dump the puck in to Letang's corner and then just punish him along the boards when he goes to retrieve it. He had something like 35 minutes of TOI in the first game, diminish his role through physicality and you remove an important asset to their transition game.

I read an ESPN article yesterday where Letang says he knows it's coming and doesn't mind it...lol

yeah he doesn't mind it until he feels it

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Of course he knows it's coming. He has no choice but to deal with it. If they can physically diminish Letang, the Pens should crumble from the back.

Well, hope to see Orly in Pittsburgh.

 

[JenniferH]

It's OK, guys. The noob did it, it's his welcome to us all! I'll do it for our next home game. I am going to do one with enough info so it can go on the main board, but I'm not gonna do stupid stuff like crazy links to hometown interviews with cousins of their 3rd grade teacher's boyfriends, and their favorite ice cream flavors and dumb stuff like that. It will still be fairly simple but still I wanna have fun. I gots plans.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Well, hope to see Orly in Pittsburgh.

Trotz and company have been MORE than patient with him. He was bound to find his way to the press box. He doesn't just make mistakes, but makes highlight reel mistakes. Pulling for the guy, but man, something has to change.
