GDT: Caps vs Pens 7pm ET Feb 1st

[Peeri]

I was happy with one point, two is even better. Good job.

As if we needed anymore evidence that Orlov is the 1D on this team.

 

[LesDiablesRouges]

Anyone still against extending Orlov? It needs to happen this summer. Amazing to have two #1D’s.

 

[Devil Dancer]

It's a shame what's happened to 3v3 OT. Coaching has taken a lot of the fun out of it. But the wins are still appreciated.

Also good job to the centers for winning a few faceoffs in extra time.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

That’s a big win for Sammy and the boys….

 

[shtorm2005]

So glad Sammy stopped Crosby on a breakaway on OT. Would have been terrible if Crosby ended this.

 

[kicksavedave]

That’s a big win for Sammy and the boys….

Yeah he caught some heat for one goal, but he let in two total in about 57 mins, and had some massive saves. Well done Sammy.

 

[Capitals40]

Sammy a couple of huge saves in OT

 

[AlexBrovechkin8]

Sammy was terrific. First star of the game for me. You see him play like that and you just wish he could find consistency.

 

[IafrateOvie34]

Someone's Cash King was ruined tonight for the Pens.

 

[LesDiablesRouges]

I think that it’s pretty easy to say that Dima is the BEST defender on this team for sure, IMO.

 

[Misery74]

Sammy played great. 2 more points tomorrow.

 

[Empty Goal Net]

Yes! I was expecting an Orlov deke but I'll take a shot. Huge win! Detroit is climbing the ladder and we totally were dominated.

Detroit?

 

[shtorm2005]

Best part of that Orly goal, he walked Crosby to get open for the shot.

 

[txpd]

Do I get this right? Kapanen concusses Vanecek but Dowd interferes with Jarry by standing on top of his crease?

 

[Chukcha]

9 goals last two games and no Ovi points. Sigh.

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

Sammy stole this one for sure. Man he's so talented but 0 consistency.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

My 4 team parlay hit on that….

Caps+Bruins+Islanders+Bolts….all money line. +476

 

[DWGie26]

I liked seeing Fever out there 3v3. And no 4th liners!

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

9 goals last two games and no Ovi points. Sigh.

That's like the last of my concerns honestly, the team needs to rack up wins and regain the ground they lost in the standings. The points and goals will come in the process.

In another positive note, Crosby won't be scoring his 500th goal against us, we will not be on his career highlight reel for that one.

 

[chilimac]

Sammy stole this one for sure. Man he's so talented but 0 consistency.

got to think he’ll probably have to play tomorrow too

 

[McVechkin]

Not sure what to make of that game. 2 points against the pens is always great to see. But did the pens ever outplay caps for most of that game… but hard to tell how much impact the refs has on momentum.. Sprongs second penalty that was phantom trip, the Deflected DOG and reversed goal were brutal momentum killers.

 

[DWGie26]

got to think he’ll probably have to play tomorrow too

I think so. But because he earned it.

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

got to think he’ll probably have to play tomorrow too

For sure, especially with VV possibly out for that one as well. You gotta ride the hot hand. I'm sure a 25 year old goaltender can handle that workload.
