Post-Game Talk: Capitals def. Canucks - 5-2 (Stecher, Baertschi)

[Billy Kvcmu]

The guy who plays for Minnesota?

That one scores 60~70 pts

 

[thekernel]

Dammit Ovie I wanna see you break Gretzky's goal record

 

[hellstick]

Ovechkin killed and ate us for dinner tonight.

 

[EpochLink]

Summer breeze, makes me feel fine...

 

[Pastor Of Muppetz]

Canucks had no jump in this game..still look gassed

 

[thekernel]

it bothers me that john garrett is 67.

Is he actually? He's doing great for his age.

 

[Addison Rae]

This is not a good hockey team, simple.

 

[Melvin]

John Garrett is in my top ten things I love about hockey.

No I don't know why. Just love the guy.

 

[Cheeks Clapinski]

John Garrett is in my top ten things I love about hockey.

No I don't know why. Just love the guy.

He was wholesome before it was cool

 

[Melvin]

This is not a good hockey team, simple.

3-4-2 regulation record.

*ducks*

 

[ATypicalCanadian]

This team just seems to freeze up when the goalie is pulled. Seems like it's always a guaranteed goal for the other team.

 

[y2kcanucks]

Well I enjoyed that game.

 

[Soups On]

This is not a good hockey team, simple.

Yep. Completely static in the offensive zone so chances are simply one and done. This coach also loves to play the 4th line when the team is down by a couple of goals in the 3rd

 

[krutovsdonut]

worst effort of the season i think. don't care if they lose but not interested in watching that crap.

 

[Josepho]

Is he actually? He's doing great for his age.

He's a year younger than Scott Oake, who's been a 70 year old man for like 20 years now.

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

This is not a good hockey team, simple.

Defending Stanley Cup champs make rebuilding team look like utter crud. Shocking.

 

[polarbearcub]

They hung in there for playing not great. Thought the reffing was god awful .. basically gave the caps two goals

 

[Melvin]

Yeah because both him and Brock are not great hockey players. BB had an anamly year last year. He doesn’t put up 20 this year. No chance.

Yeah yeah, we know. You randomly turned on him after his first slump.

More seriously though, when is it acceptable to worry? Two goals in nine games including a 3v3 after a brutal pre season is not encouraging.

I can't believe Eriksson is getting paid 6 million dollars

I think they actually tried quite hard. Just the talent difference is massive and shows how far Vancouver still is from competing

 

[Svencouver]

We play so much of our game glued to the boards which leads to pretty easy defense for the other team

 

[Serac]

On the plus side, Gaudette finished with 11:49 of ice time with 19 shifts, and didn't look out of place at all

 

[polarbearcub]

This. At the game .. they worked hard.. were in it.. just caps too much and bad reffing

 

[Melvin]

I can't believe Eriksson is getting paid 6 million dollars

7 million.

And he's already pocketed the first six as a signing bonus. On cruise control for that 1m salary. Good contract Jim.

 

[Addison Rae]

Defending Stanley Cup champs make rebuilding team look like utter crud. Shocking.

Imagine thinking I'm basing it on a 1 game sample size.
