We’re a squadddd

 

[IafrateOvie34]

Shepard great game

Him and Lindgren keep this up they can sell DK to the Oilers lol.

 

[Langway]

Gutsy win. Not sure what to make of a team not led by their top six or PP. Strange dynamic, albeit nothing entirely new. Onward.

 

[Marshall]

I am officially on-board with this coaching staff - the Caps are winning games they shouldn't.

Impressive stuff.

 

[troyerlaw]

Part of why we had this lineup was the injuries to Mantha and kuemper. Right now it really feels like Lindy & Shepard battle harder and keep us in games.

To me Malenstyn is first star, even without a goal. He was heart and soul guy tonight. But i’m guessing first star will go to 8 or Shep

 

[Eirikrautha]

Ehhh, off by one on the score and got several of the scorers wrong. But, hey, they don't call me Nostradumbass for nothing!

Good win. Good showing by the young'uns. Ovie gets two (including an EN). What else could you want?

 

[twabby]

Another tough game puck tonight. Going to review the numbers and award shortly...

It’s not that tough….

 

[Empty Goal Net]

Screw the #s, go with your gut

What if his gut wants to puke from too much mead?

 

[twabby]

My game puck goes to Nick Jensen with a 55% xGF in 22 minutes of work. Honorable mention goes to Aliaksei Protas, Hunter Shepard, and Rasmus Sandin.

 

[hockeykicker]

and now time for a lot of days off as caps have only 2 games in next 11 days

 

[895]

I haven't even been this optimistic about this team for 2 or 3 years.

 

[hockeykicker]

time for keumper to grow a mustache?

[Brian23]

I'll give Shep credit tonight, man was locked in and was out standing.

I still worry about him long term, but I could easily be wrong. Maybe he can man the pipes as the back up goalie to a true #1.

 

[McVechkin]

Gutsy win on the back end of a back to back, banged up/inexperienced D, and 3rd string goalie.

Mitch Love did a heck of job shuffling the d-pairs with all the Hershey call ups!

 

[SherVaughn30]

OV now tied with Gretzky for most Empty Net Goals with 56!

At the rink, the three stars were:
1. Shepard
2. Protas
3. Ovie

 

[SherVaughn30]

Chucky Sideburns 2-1-0, 2.35 gaa, .927 sv%
Shep 2-0-0, 2.50 gaa, .915 sv%

Kuemper 3-3-2, 3.07 gaa, .893 sv%

Clay Stevenson with Hershey, got the 2-0 shutout(2nd shutout for him this season) tonight on 24 saves. He's now 4-2-0, 1.67 gaa, .932 sv%

Kuemper better get his act together or he could start to be expendable. He's the type of goalie that I expect to be a .920+ sv% goalie.

It amazes me how good of a goalie factory the Caps are. They have produced more NHL goalies in the last decade than any other team.

 

[Ovie's Neighbor]

and now time for a lot of days off as caps have only 2 games in next 11 days

We always gets these long stretches off when we are playing our best hockey

 

[zappa4ever]

Helluva win. Proud of these shitbirds


Doom and Gloomers, come out to play-ee-aayyy

Him and the other Hershey graduates are making this a fun season for me.

 

[YippieKaey]

Good game and very good feeling to see Ovi getting ENGs again. Things are right in the world.
