Post-Game Talk: Caps Devils 7pm

[DWGie26]

Flyers and Sabres about to go to OT as well. buffalo choked a lead too! Haha

 

[LesDiablesRouges]

I can’t overstate how terrible and f***ing lazy that line change by Kuzy and Vrana was when NJ were rushing into our zone on an odd-man rush for their second goal. Literally their laziness left a forward wide open for the goal. It changed the game and was absolutely horrible.

Devils are playing quite fast, you’d think it would also open up things the other way. 8-19-77 had a counter rush there and that was our only semi decent look all period.

Chara - Jensen providing a lot of nothing right now. Put the skaters out there

 

[Coldplay619]

Looks like they are a bit more awake now. Wish OV wasn’t old. Can’t catch and shoot right now.

That's the biggest problem with him right, the puck just explodes off his stick when he's in good position.

 

[Hivemind]

Even Backstrom has forgotten how to pass

 

[Coldplay619]

ANYBODY BUT HAGELIN

 

[SpinningEdge]

Fans should be booing - and I’m always against booing your own teams players. Ridiculous it’s silent there right now

 

[Ridley Simon]

So has Vanacek earned more starts?

 

[Capsman]

Haglin may be one of the worst finishes in the history of the game.

Yeah but didn’t you notice how Kuznetsov was on the ice when Sprong scored?

According to fancy stats that means he’s playing well, apparently.

 

[Raikkonen]

Glanced back. Wtf is happening?!

I have only one theory - guys want to let Ovi score another OTG.

 

[LesDiablesRouges]

Kuzy and Vrana have been benched due to laziness and a terrible line change on the second goal and it’s absolutely the right decision. Neither have taken a shift since their shenanigans on the second goal.

really?

 

[troyerlaw]

How do u blow that lead against this team

 

[Calicaps]

really?

Seems right to me.

 

[DWGie26]

I don’t mind giving them a point as long as we get 2!

 

[LesDiablesRouges]

really?

Yep. Good on Lavi. I’ve been tracking the shifts because there’s no way as a coach I’d let it fly.

 

[AussieCapsFan]

So has Vanacek earned more starts?

Sammy should get the next start. Team hasn't helped VV much tonight, but Samsonov's previous performance was superb and he deserves another look.

 

[Monsterrain]

Nice job guys

 

[Calicaps]

Devils have actually been a decent road team. Caps got complacent.

 

[IafrateOvie34]

Well got a point at least. Didn't have to be this way, but I'll take it.

 

[Corby78]

Welp we got a true loser point tonight

 

[Raikkonen]

Is there anything positive Vrana does besides goals?

I guess, but the other guys didn’t make the most of the extra ice time

I’m good at this point with trading Kuzy. We caught lightning in a bottle with him in 2018, I’m thankful for that. But for whatever reason he’s no longer motivated. Maybe a change of scenery helps him and the Caps.
