ECQF Game 4: Capitals @ Hurricanes | 7PM ET | NBCSN,TVAS,SN

He'll be back. Canes are down 2 players in this series. You want sympathy?

Canes are down two players for a KO fight and failed hit attempt. Caps are down a star due to a dirty hit.

 

[GIN ANTONIC]

You have the glasses on bud, I don’t even hate the Canes I’ve enjoyed both teams this year. I never deny the penalties on the Caps. There were calls the Canes got away with, absolutely 100%, some equally obvious to at least 2 of the 3 late ignored penalties

So then what’s the difference? Calls missed on both sides, Caps don’t have a leg to stand on when using that as an excuse or a complaint

 

[DaBolts]

Caps screwed up. They needed one win. They just gave the Canes, who are playing with house money, all they incentive they need to steal one. If they win game 5, Canes win it all at home game 6,

 

[Chips]

Caps were lucky that none of their multiple penalties called in the last two minutes. There were at least 3 but maybe even more than that

Well there were 32 calls ignored for the Canes, the NHL and NBC wants the Canes to win

 

[nothingbeatshockey]

If the refs called every penalty, Tom Wilson would never play more than 4 minutes a game.

When’s your tee time?

 

[illicit]

I knew the Caps were dirty pieces of ****, I didn't realize they had the refs on payroll though.

You're kidding right? You must have missed the boarding on Oshie. Yeah, and Washington are the dirty team. Let's face it, it's the playoffs, there are dirty plays EVERY SHIFT.

 

[GIN ANTONIC]

Difference between a couple minors both ways and a botched easy Major.

Not really and watch the replay of the Oshie ‘hit’ again. It was barely even a push. Unfortunate result of losing an edge

 

[dogbazinho]

Lets see if he misses a game before we start planning the pity parade.

Oh ok, didn’t realize it was 32. I’ll talk to the league about having the score reversed and Caps go up 3-1 now.

 

[Tryamw]

Injury was the result of Oshie hitting the boards. That screams Boarding.

So if I legally check a guy center ice and he breaks a leg hitting the boards that a major for boarding. End result sucks. You normally have to be able to fall from where hit into the boards which obviously was not the case

 

[PensandCaps]

Canes again have been the best team all 4 games. Should be up 3-1.

Caps looking very disappointing out there.

 

[CanesFanBudMan]

TT with blood running down his face sheesh

 

[nothingbeatshockey]

The refs didn’t decide this game.
Enough with the BS complaining about the refs.
Neither side was advantaged or disadvantaged.
You’re embarassing yourselves with the whining.

 

[Words Of Wisdom]

I don’t watch many Carolina games but I didn’t expect their crowd to be that loud. They have an awesome home crowd. This series is gonna be fun. Next game may decide it all.

 

[SouthGeorge]

When’s your tee time?

On the practice green waiting for you

 

[PensandCaps]

When’s your tee time?

i really dont get this

 

[Hank Plank]

That boarding play is bad hockey hate to see that. No way to know if it was intentional but players need to use their noggins a little more.

 

[The S5]

Definitely not a boarding on Oshie. Minor was the correct call.
Both teams were allowed to get away with minor stuff all game. I can't count the number of times Wilson ran someone from behind.

Canes were the better team tonight. They were able to transition the puck out of the D zone consistently.

Caps were fortunate to get 1 goal as a result of a broken stick.

I'm sure they will bounce back at home.

 

[Chips]

So then what’s the difference? Calls missed on both sides, Caps don’t have a leg to stand on when using that as an excuse or a complaint

That’s literally what I was saying... people complaining about the Caps getting away with stuff are wasting their breath

 

[bleedgreen]

Last minute and a half the caps got away with a boarding and an obvious high stick.

There’s no point complaining. Both sides deserved more penalties than they got and it should be that way. It’s the playoffs. It’s supposed to be tough. It’s supposed to be dirty.

And the better team tonight won.

 

[nothingbeatshockey]

i really dont get this

Not surprising.

 

[dogbazinho]

So if I legally check a guy center ice and he breaks a leg hitting the boards that a major for boarding. End result sucks. You normally have to be able to fall from where hit into the boards which obviously was not the case

Yes, and if a player gets injured it's always a 5 minute major!

Boarding literally has nothing to do with how a player was hit into the boards and everything to do with the impact of the boards. You realize that right? Completely legal hit can be a cause of a Boarding call. Let alone a cross check from behind within a couple feet from the boards. Aka the most dangerous area for Boarding.

As John Forslund would say, 'She's a series now.'

 

[Master P]

Great job Canes! Don't let them up off the mat.
