This game wasnt pretty every minute but the volume of work Caps did is significant. I was extremely calm watching this. Looks like things are going into right direction.

It feels so weird to see Melkor absolutely positively radiating and sparkling
I noticed goal differential last night and laughed because it was +13 after our 6-0 thrashing of BuffaLOW. Doubled our margin in one game. Haha
Certainly not a knock on Wilson. More of a tip of the hat to the overall team picking up the slack! Good times!

It's nice to have a competent head coach. And I like this team

The depth on this team. You could almost say that the pandemic has helped the Caps by allowing us to get impact guys when we were cap strapped. Having guys like Ovie, Backy, Oshie, Carly gets guys wanting to play with them. Even Lundqvist.
Even “Nick the Dick” on NBCSports is giddy.

Samsonov taking his rightful place as our top guy IMO.
Super impressive win against a really good team.
Super impressive win against a really good team.
Pens lose in regulation to the Bs is the cherry on top.
We have 1a and 1b for sure right now. Hope it continues because i really don’t want to have to trade for a veteran goalie at the deadline.

Who has the Ov in the rear view mirror image?
A month ago people on here were like "We have no goalies".
Chara signing for 750k thanks Boston

Similar to how this team played early on during the COVID suspensions

Completely agree. Young, Cheap and Good. Can’t ask for more right now.

Noted. That thing tonight was ridiculous. BTW....that entire series on the pp was an example of Backstrom's under the radar magic. His control of the puck and the play was masterful

He’s the type of player that if you haven’t played a ton of hockey you don’t really appreciate what he does. But those of us who have played are able to pick up on it. All the little passes to get out of the zone, the board play and puck protection, the surveying of the ice right before you get the puck so you can move it right away, the times he doesn’t make a pass because it’s not a smart play. He is a coach’s dream.
