I still am unsure if the goal crossed the line from the angles I saw. You see white but I want to see an angle directly above the puck before I say we got screwed or not. Besides, we played a piss poor 1st period and could not score on our PP's so we kinda lost the game on our own, not going to blame the refs for our lack of starts and PP attempts.They actually played a pretty good game Sunday. The first period was complete ****, but they were the better team after that. Too late of course, but they have it in them.
And let's please not forget that the Sunday game was a **** show from the officials who literally gave a goal away while discounting another despite video evidence.
Wilson hopes that Dumo will be able to play tonight. Wow. What a sweetheart. How does this guy not win the Lady Byng?

Oh and if garbage reffing standards hold (and I mean... they always do, especially this time of year), the one upshot to last game's ****show is that the Penguins SHOULD be getting some extra time on the powerplay in this one. Even if they don't deserve a couple of them.
So for chrissakes... take advantage of that.
Yeah, touching on non-Wilson related topics, the Pens PP is one major area of theirs they have to improve on. Right now, the Caps can afford to be dirty SOBs because the Pens don't make them pay on the scoreboard. If the Pens' PP was actually clicking, then maybe Washington would cut back on stuff that might see them in the box.
Hopefully if Geno is good to go tonight, we finally have a weapon from long range since Kessel can't shoot and Schultz won't shoot.
That, and get a lead, which will force the Caps to actually play hockey....goonery will cease quickly....

You are underselling their stupidity. They might continue to throw gatbage hits while behind. There is a good chance there won't be a penalty anyway.

I'm not sure our power play is an advantage right now.
Time to go play some Farcry 5.
