Post-Game Talk: Caps @ Wild

[troyerlaw]

That was a blast of a 1st period. Ovi is stupid good. Best goalscorer to ever play (besides Fiala)

Slow down. He’s no Fiala

 

[troyerlaw]

With these refs Wilson will get a game penalty just for touching the ice. Wize choise by Todd to not play him...

I don’t know. Fun to see Kovy get a chance. But Willy was big difference maker against Pens, and is the beating heart of squad. I’d like to see him back in top-6 real soon. Plus, it’s not like Kovy has been playimg lights out. He has had some boneheaded giveaways leading to goals against. And putting us on the PK at end of period wasnt ideal either

I'll give Todd more than *checks notes .... realizes he doesn't take notes*... I dunno, 4 or 5 games to figure out where to best play Kovy.

Guys have to understand, there's a lot of talent and switching things up should only serve to motivate. Willy has been pretty brutal lately also. I'm sure he will be ready for the playoffs. Ain't going far without him driving the bus.

He did pretty damn well for a guy like 4 inches shorter. I’m guessing Dillon would like a do-over. Just based on the way they clutched up, it was hard for Dillon really to punish him. They were both sorta punching past each other

Hartman showed well, but good on Dillon to single-handedly pull out Hartman after Hartman slashed Kovy and started the whole ruckus.

New Cap looking out for New Cap.

I do love this team!!!

 

[AtNightWeFly]

Kinda nervous for the 2nd.

5 more goals would be fun.

 

[AtNightWeFly]

Willy back on the first line.

 

[AussieCapsFan]

OMG Stalock what a dive - give him the academy award

 

[McVechkin]

Kovy has been all around the net since he got here. He’s bound by to score soon.

 

[SpinningEdge]

Still no ovi assist - but it’s okay. He’s playing g fantastic tonight

 

[HTFN]

Good for Kovalchuk. He didn’t give a shot and then make that dumb face while he waited to see if he would get popped back again, he gave the guy what he thought he deserved.

 

[SpinningEdge]

Carlson hasn’t been very good lately

 

[AtNightWeFly]

Dammit.

 

[McVechkin]

Was that a slash on ovie? Or a good stick play? I think the latter, but want to see a replay

 

[Raikkonen]

How did Jensen decide he should make cross ice breakout pass from his backhand?! Is he Kuzy or who?

 

[OviTaughtMe]

Carlson and Jensen are such low IQ players....

 

[SpinningEdge]

Minnesota on their 4th pp halfway thru the game.

 

[hb12xchamps]

Dillion needs to be re-signed. Sees Hartman hit Carlson and immediately looks to throw him through the glass. Love that

 

[mad4comp]

So carlson gets held and brought down... and then PP to the Wild. Sounds fair.

 

[SpinningEdge]

Carlson and Jensen are such low IQ players....

Jensen has been good lately at least - been a stretch of a couple weeks now

 

[SpinningEdge]

Dillion needs to be re-signed. Sees Hartman hit Carlson and immediately looks to throw him through the glass. Love that

Let’s see playoffs - who knows what happens this spring

 

[pocketrockets]

Apparently Pierre just learned what the world "cerebral" meant

 

[AtNightWeFly]

Kovy back on the first line. What is happening?

 

[Portable Mink]

Game is ok against a hot team fighting hard.
Prob deserved a PP or 2 though.

weird line change ups happening.
