Post-Game Talk: Cup Champions vs. The McJesus’ Team

[Alexander the Gr8]

You got in too deep. His options were limited. Ive noticed he goes for the 5 hole on his breakaways. He scored on a couple of them last season but he might need to try something else.

I think goalies expect the backhand five hole now, he should try roofing it top shelf on the short side once in a while.

He seems to have no confidence for that, unfortunately.

 

[Drakon]

His skating and stickhandling abilities are pretty bad at this point

What?

 

[Dr John Carlson]

What?

Do you disagree? He's not very quick anymore and he fumbles pucks a lot.

 

[shtorm2005]

Lol they should have asked about McDavid from Eller. "He's no special"

His board work reflects the urgency that comes with... early November. Would anyone dispute that 8/92 aren't playing as hard as they could/did in June? Nope.

On replay Ovi accelerated to some point (puck wasn't on the screen at that moment), and I think he started just when Carlson shot the puck, not after it bounced his way. So he is kinda stationary but always makes little movement right before the future goal. So basically knows what will/could happen.

 

[Drakon]

I do actually. He's extremely quick, he just does it in a more controlled manner than he used to. Fumbles, yeah, but I think that's focus more than lost ability.

I'd love to see the Caps not give up a goal in the 3rd.

Copley has played well, kept them in the lead, and deserves a regulation win.

 

[VaCaps Fan]

Ovi is our Russian god emperor!

 

[marcel snapshot]

At game - live, that Nicky pass to Oshie for the 3rd goal looked pretty Matrix-y. Liking Kempny and Bowey tonite and 4th line obviously. Jaskin so close to scoring in 1st. Hands are pretty Chimera-esque

 

[troyerlaw]

Whoa, Ovie trucking guys on that shift. Did something piss him off? He looked like Angry Ovie there

 

[Silky mitts]

Djoos creates another scoring chance

 

[AtNightWeFly]

Over-passing again.

 

[troyerlaw]

Overpassed that one. 92 needed 2 shoot

 

[DrewGl]

Bura with a sick non shot, non pass play...

Followed by the giveaway in neutral zone later in same shift. ‘Good job, good effort!’

 

[Raikkonen]

Bura is sinking

 

[Calicaps]

Maybe the Oil will take Bura when they go and leave us someone... but who?

 

[Calicaps]

Zero shots on net this period. Yuck.

Chaisson!

 

[AussieCapsFan]

Just popped over to the Pens GDT for a chuckle - looks like they're going to lose their 4th straight

Should make for an interesting Caps / Pens game on Thursday
