Last 2 goals were poor defense but I still don’t think they’ve played badly at 5v5. The Bruins have 3 grade A chances at 5v5 and have scored on 2 of them (and then have one softie too). Once again, goaltending and special teams are the problem. They’re fine at 5v5.

Any of our big guys feel like doing anything? Kuzy? Oshie? Wilson? Ovi? Backstrom? Feel free to contribute anytime

Does anyone else think the Caps have laid off the physical play, if not all season at least lately? Hath is just about the only player who regularly takes the body. A few guys hit here and there, but this team doesn't seem to lay a heavy forecheck on anyone. Maybe they don't have the personnel. I certainly don't want Ovie taking the lead in that aspect of play, especially if Lavi is going to keep putting him on the ice for >21-22 minutes a match.

Is that Ovie or Oshies goal?

Edit: deflected off Oshies foot

It’s like Wilson has forgotten what got him feared.

They don't play heavy. That's not Lavi's style unfortunately.

I was hoping they might run up the score so Mac would get us a goalie.
