Are we the only team the Caps won't choke against? Like holy ****.

They didn't since we were the favorites back then.

Sens fan here. Just popped over to say you guys have a legit blueliner in McAvoy. He's going to real good.

That he is! And good call not posting in the GDT/PGT!

Ducks already up 2-0.

 

[Fossy21]

Minnesota dominated the first period and lead 1-0, quite the contrast to how Calgary's potential elimination game has gone so far.

Getzlaf with the dagger. Flames get swept

They came close ,The Leafs suck defensively why the Caps would sit back is beyond me.

Admittedly, I wish that B.U. had made it to Chicago and that the Bruins' blue line wasn't so decimated, but watching him jump right in has been fun. His sterling performace against Canada in the WJC gold medal game in a hostile Bell Centre showed he handle just about anything.

The Sabres have canned Tim Murray and Dan Bylsma.

Not surprised on Bylsma, somewhat surprised on Murray. Both of them are trash, so it's for the better for Buffalo though.

What goal was it? I'd like to actually see the boxscore if they counted all seven players as being on the ice.

Funny thing was both teams had to many players on the ice. Maybe they should introduce a challenge opportunity to get those calls right (it did lead to a goal after all).

Seven on seven - imagine how little room you would have to operate in then. Let's hope Bettmen didn't see it as a new concept that would add to the entertainment value for his loyal fans.

 

[Sharp Shooting Neely]

Haha, they're saying Radulov wasn't on the ice?

He was the one who sent them in on the rush, then stayed around the Rangers bench as they scored, whereupon he skated down and celebrated with them

And that will probably do it for the Caps. 5 goals on 26 shots.

Perfectly consistent for the officials as they never saw Radulov on the ice all night. Number of blatant calls on him were simply ignored.

 

[JRull86]

Also, what a horrid performance from Elliott this postseason. No chance the Flames re-sign him.

 

[Estlin]

Not surprised on Bylsma, somewhat surprised on Murray. Both of them are trash, so it's for the better for Buffalo though.

By all accounts, Bylsma had it coming. I am surprised, however, that Murray was let go. I didn't think that he was doing a bad job in Buffalo.

CBJ And Pitts get Peel and Furlatt tonight...

Why on earth would they be allowed to ref together after game 3 debacle

I kinda think Holtby in reality sucks, but golden vs us.

 

[Hali33]

I kinda think Holtby in reality sucks, but golden vs us.

See and I'd pick Holtby out of any of them to try and win it all with. I don't get that ****ing team. I guess it's the curse of having that ****ing goal horn.

I like him I just can't explain how teams can score on him rather easily in the playoffs when we struggle like hell always.

 

[WhalerTurnedBruin55]

Unless we learn how to score goals that count, I think we are done by Saturday morning.

 

[WhalerTurnedBruin55]

More or less, most goalies suck, but becomes superstars against us.

Or at least that's what it feels like.

Nah, he's pretty ****ing good if you ask me.

 

[TMac21]

Let's go Rangers, misery loves company.

 

[missingchicklet]

Nah, he's pretty ****ing good if you ask me.

2nd in the league in GAA. 3rd in save pct. 1st in wins. 1st in shutouts. He is gosh awful in shootouts, so I guess there's that working against him. Overall though he is indeed very good. Certainly a top-5 goalie without question.

Eat this Price.
