Ovechkin haters counting how many empty nets he has
It was only 4 goals, what was the worst that could happen?I dunno why you guys were so worried we had this the WHOLE time, never doubted it
Man if the Caps can just figure out that ugly 2nd periods, then they might be alright!
Bench the following: Backstrom, Oshie, Sandin.
This surprises me
10-0 shutout.Away net had a shutout
Sadly I agree about Phillips. Especially seeing him in person and how easily he gets knocked off the puck.Phillips, I get. He brings nothing.
Fairly sure Malenstyn and Protas are trustworthy.
Me too, that was a bit of a surprise. I don't think he was bad at all and he even created some chances.Beck is fine. Surprised that Protas got benched. Mantha was good. For all the haters out there we need that.
When he isn't on to the point that he's killing it (which hasn't even happened yet, but he's had some lucky touches) he's just an easy mark. He can't keep up on the boards and they can't afford to roster a winger who can't do that with how they play. When defensive players look up and go "oh that's the tiny guy" they just paste him to the wall and let the rest resolve itself, it's not tenable.Sadly I agree about Phillips. Especially seeing him in person and how easily he gets knocked off the puck.
If other teams want to play that ragged and porous, yes. The Devils were still really close to tying it, though.Are the Caps back?
