Post-Game Talk: G11 - Caps - Rags - 7pm-ish

[Ovie's Neighbor]

We have them right where we want them. Let’s let them get up 3-0.

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

I think once VV gets more time these fluke goals wont happen as much. That said hes still on par with Holtby

Always better to be down 0-3 after 1 period than up 3-0 with the Caps!

I would love to see that first line broken up. Need to spread the offensive love around because that unit isn’t working.

Lavi will change it up and I like it

 

[francaisvolantsparis]

Who do you want to play instead? Anderson? Copley?

Anderson. Why sign him, if we dont play him in even one game?

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Anderson. Why sign him, if we dont play him in even one game?

for the Taxi, if he showed anything in practice im sure he would get a game...

 

[TheLegendOfPatPeake]

Because VV has been playing well?

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

Anderson. Why sign him, if we dont play him in even one game?

If he isn't playing at all, he's probably terrible at this point. I think they have him in case both Samsonov and Vanecek can't play and they need someone to fill in.

They possibly cross their fingers that they'll never need to play him.

Plan A was to alternate between Samsonov and Lundqvist. Vanecek starting every game was Plan C, Anderson is Plan D basically.

Our goaltending is a mess at this point. Is what it is.

 

[Carlzner]

Giving Jensen a 4 year deal before he even played a single game in this uniform will forever be a black mark on an otherwise great GM tenure from GMBM

 

[Hivemind]

Huge save by VV

 

[Corby78]

I like this strategy, get our bad period out of the way early

 

[Calicaps]

LOL at the goaltending critiques here. Maybe if our forwards would forecheck and shoot the damn puck.

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

We look better then the Rangers... keep playing hard and this is 2pts

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

The 4th line may be onto something here. Long shot from the point with a screen, Shesterkin can't locate the rebound and Sgarbossa gets a nice opportunity.

They need to get pucks to the point and just throw them at the net. We'll get weird bounces and deflections to go in.

This isn't a game where we will score clean goals on the rush or fancy passing plays.

Yeah it would have been SO much better with Holtby in net

Or Lundqvist who is still playing like he did when he was at his best

 

[AussieCapsFan]

Jensen almost got an assist - for the Rangers

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

not a great PP even with zone time alot

Not saying that but its not a good situation at the moment. But...I'd rather have Hotlby at this point if we could have afforded him.

 

[TheLegendOfPatPeake]

Someone needs to get the caps some coffee. They look old and slow tonight.

but we couldnt so why cry about it

 

[tenken00]

Saved by the bell there! RIP Screech

lol.. Holtby's done brah.

This. I see a bunch of slow, disinterested forwards who refuse to make a simple play.
