That was a nasty moveLol Oshie removing jocks lol…..wooooo!
I know he’s a 3rd-pair guy at best, but i dont care — I like Irwin. Gives full effort, sticks up for teammates, will fight if team needs him to (as it occasionally did during 43’s long absence). Seems like a steady, team-first guyLol well done 52…
Just when I thought I was out...they pull me back IN!
What about the tank?Ovechkin goal
Capitals win
I thought he was solid.good game from my boy 27 thats what we like to see
What about the tank?
If this season has taught us anything,If this season has taught us anything, the opponent is meaningless in determining a Caps win or loss. It's all about how many f***s the Caps have to give on game night
Sweet comeback. Random observations:
Wilson's tying goal was the first time in a while I audibly cheered. Winning is indeed more fun than tanking.
There is a lot of potential in the Cap's young defensemen. A few hiccups aside, these kids are good. Alexeyev had another strong game. His outlet passes are accurate and hard. Sandin's vision and passing is such a huge addition. He does get caught from time to time, but he really facilitates offense in a way this team hasn't had in a long time. Both aren't afraid to battle either.
Sheary and Oshie lost the puck a ton. Oshie gets a pass because of his absolutely filthy shootout goal.
Cool to see Ovechkin score off an awesome tip.
Still wish Mantha and Kuznetsov would play with more purpose near the boards. Sometimes the puck is just slightly out of reach and they just don't go for it. Insane.
Backstrom had a strong game. Looks better each game.
Lindgren wasn't at his best, but stopping both attempts in the shootout was huge.
