Post-Game Talk: Bolts @ Caps, leftovers edition

[Corby78]

Boom

 

[AtNightWeFly]

This game is fun. Bolts are fun.

We've been the hungrier team in this first. If we keep this up, we'll be on the board soon enough.



They're constantly rotating.

Yes they are but Kuzy isn't as good as Backstrom in that spot

We complained last year about the lack of movement on our PP. This new rotation is more than welcome.

[trick9]

Should have been up by at least 3 goals with all these chances.

 

[maacoshark]

The Caps played with a lot of energy. Stephenson looked good in that period.

 

[ovikovy817]

Best period of the year.
Could be 5-0 with a little bit of luck

 

[Capsman]

One of the best offensive periods we’ve had in a long long time.

 

[trick9]

Tampa look absolutely brutal defensively.

 

[Ovechclutch]

Ovi is still pretty damn good when he tries

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

We've been all over the Lightning. The reason why we're creating that much offense is that our centers are now driving to the net on the rush instead of sitting back for a drop pass. We exit the zone with more speed as well with the indirect passes.

Unfortunately it's just 1-1. We have to remain physical against that Namestnikov-Stamkos-Kucherov line.

BB couldn't get our D to be that aggressive and responsible at the same time

Shots 16-7 for Caps

We like to yell when we are badly outshoot. So When it s very good, we need to say it too

haha very true

I had to do a double take when I saw that stat.
What is this? A new system?

Trotz evolved from the Cretaceous to the Paleogene era

 

[4thTierSport]

Ouch, that was the jaw right to the dasher!

Why would you say that?

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

Ouch, that was the jaw right to the dasher!

Orlov missed the hip check as Namestnikov was trying to dodge him. Unfortunate.

 

[Calicaps]

So far I stand somewhat corrected, but the score, given the shot differential, isn't super impressive.

 

[maacoshark]

Trotz evolved from the Cretaceous to the Paleogene era

Everyone thinks Trotz is an old school coach but I wouldn't say he is.

 

[4thTierSport]

Yeah, didn't think anything was wrong with it. Just saw the replay and the dasher lip hit right in the side of the face.

Why the 4th line plays against the Stamkls Line at home?
