Post-Game Talk: Caps Rangers 12pm

[Vilica]

Man. I'm more worried about our PP than any of these bozo announcers. Maybe it's time to bring back Kuzy.

fwiw Kuzy was on the first wave just then. Lavi swapped him for Vrana for our last power play in the 3p of the Devils game, and stayed with it for this first one.

I'm not sure how much free reign Forsythe has with personnel or if it's Lavi personally, but it's something to watch if Kuzy and Vrana keep switching on the different units.

We can't even enter the zone against the Rags.

Fine. The players need to pass the puck correctly. Once in the zone, though, with Ovechkin being taken away there are 3 penalty killers watching 2 shooting options. Somebody else has to score.

Vrana has had some good looks at the spot, but his best plays have been his one timer passes to Oshie in front. We need him to actually shoot and score from that area though to alleviate pressure from Ovie's side.

I saw someone. Cant remember if the right half wall guy was 19, 13 or 92 but the Rangers let him skate unopposed to the face off dot and the guy still didnt shoot it. Thats how loose the opposing PK is with that player. Its 3 shooters against 4 on the pk

 

[RandyHolt]

Oshie = Warrior

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Dirty Blackwell...

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

lets go PP

 

[bur and 666 others]

We started hitting more.

btw, when they showed Gretzky and Lemieux, I thought they would talk about Ovi, but they talked about Zibanejad...

 

[RandyHolt]

The ranger feigning injury to avoid a call on Jensen

 

[McVechkin]

Real greasy by Blackwell. How was that not called?

 

[crab]

I swear whenever we have the extra guy on a delayed call they can’t make a simple play for the life of them

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Kuz on PP1

 

[g00n]

Of course Olczyk sees no problem with that shove that distance from the boards. Another one that would've drawn outrage if 43 on the other team had done it.

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

PP still bad

 

[tenken00]

Lol bad pass by Kuzy on PP1 after I called for him

 

[McVechkin]

Teams know how to pressure this PP on the entry and setup. No creativity or adjustments.

 

[aonb]

give them 5 more minutes and they'll start jerking off to this rangers team

bring back the sling shot LOL

 

[Eirikrautha]

Great defensive play by Orlov to break up a 4 on 2...

 

[bur and 666 others]

Man, Orlov is such a good defender

 

[kicksavedave]

Their passing and catching is bad right now.... but its an early game, so... expected.

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

Nic Dowd penalty... where have we seen this before?

 

[GoCaps2004]

Blackwell just decided to jump when he felt Dowd's hand on him.... lol

 

[trick9]

We look really bad. Heading towards zero points again if they don't improve.
