Post-Game Talk: Caps Rangers 12pm

[Capsman]

What exactly is Wilson arguing? Was a clear trip.

 

[McVechkin]

This is very concerning

 

[max21]

Omg lol

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

We gotta get better at defending our leads though, this has been an issue since day 1

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

F’ing brutal.

 

[trick9]

Why the hell is 40% Backstrom out there taking the crucial face-off?

 

[Calicaps]

I'm really starting to hate this version of the Rags

 

[Melkor]

VV has rebound issues too.

part of sammy is I think he relies on his athleticism too much. I think game is still very fast for him. He needs to calm down - or get more comfortable - which will result in less rebounds.

I miss Korn...

That's the consequences of having holes in the toolbox fundamentally. You can't rely on skill then rely on natural abilities. Samsonov does just that.

 

[SpinningEdge]

No lead ever safe with this team. This team j guess can just never turtle.

makes no sense with the defensive players this team has. We have 8 legit nhl defenders (9 when kempny is back) and good defensive forwards too.

At least it’s fun.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

.789 and sinking....

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Sammy big save

 

[Blitzkrieg365]

Sammy looks horrible, his angles are way off.

 

[Corby78]

I just hope we see an empty net at this point

 

[Roshi]

Well... maybe we can now get the empty netter for both, ovie and willy..

 

[GoCaps2004]

I love this linesman. There have been a handful of plays that could've been icing and he's just been like... y'all aren't skating hard at all, so I'm waving it off

 

[aonb]

boys knows better. now both ovie and wilson can score an empty net

 

[Capsman]

Our d-zone coverage id falling apart. Guys are wide open. What on earth is going on?

 

[TheLegendOfPatPeake]

Sigh.

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

I turned on CBB at 4-1 and come back at 5-4. Thought this would be a statement game against the NYR when it was 4-1. So much for that.

 

[Roshi]

I just hope we see an empty net at this point

tbh im happy to get one point now..

 

[SpinningEdge]

That's the consequences of having holes in the toolbox fundamentally. You can't rely on skill then rely on natural abilities. Samsonov does just that.

Goaltending since Korn left has been a issue. Holtby was way worse... both young guys in trouble a lot too.

lundqvist would of been great just for mentorship here. Would of been a proven coach for Sammy - just unfortunately had luck happened.

not really caps fault. Lindqvist would of been awesome - and now sammys fault he’s the most experienced goalie on this roster too...

 

[Calicaps]

tbh im happy to get one point now..

F that. Cannot blow it after a scoring 5.

 

[Capsman]

We look completely gassed. Wow. Dillon's last play looked like he just bag skated.

 

[SpinningEdge]

We need to acquire a face off winning center at deadline. If dowd or eller are out in playoffs for any reason we are screwed.

 

[trick9]

40% Backstrom again taking the face-off...
