What a win from the guys today. Love the next man up vibes. #2 has been awesome this year.

 

[CapsJunkie]

what a game.

 

[tenken00]

Dowd could very well be our 1st line center on Thursday.

 

[pman25]

At this point uhh we gotta start keeping a closer eye on the waiver wire. Gonna need more bodies at this rate

 

[txpd]

And in the coach's post game presser are we getting a dodge on Eller and Backstrom and Wilson?

[txpd]

zzzzzzz

Yea....uh huh

 

[Roughing]

Refs are straight dog shit this year. Really tired of the Caps being targeted. It's clear.

 

[JMUcapsfan07]

Really liking Lavi so far and I think it's great to have Bruce affiliated with the Caps again. I'll always be a fan of his.

 

[GoCaps2004]

There's no chance he hasn't talked to the trainers lmao. his #1, #2, and #3 centers could be out. you know damn well the first thing he did after the game was talk to the trainers

 

[hb12xchamps]

Entertaining game.

Can we put Forsythe on LTIR or waivers?

The PP went 1 for 2 without having the greatest goal scorer of all time. Find a new slant

You think we can trade him?

 

[txpd]

Looked like Lee was not targeted for attention under the circumstances and now Eller has been taken out too. Reading the Islander GDT about how it was no more than a minor was a hoot

The trainer tells someone on the bench what the injury is and that the player is not returning. So that lie has always pissed me off. Just answer the question honest and tell us you wont tell us

Such a dumb move by Komarov too. Gets in his first game of the year and makes a bad hit that didn’t need to be made in a tie game with 10 minutes left in the 3rd. I don’t bother trying to predict what’s a major or suspension anymore, waste of breath to argue about that, but it was certainly a penalty and our player got hurt. That’s enough for me

 

[Langway]

 

[Rob Brown]

Any update on Backstrom?

 

[AussieCapsFan]

Yeah it's not like we were missing anyone important....

Blackhawks legend Patrick Sharp. Teammates had to keep him away from their wives and girlfriends, so the story goes

 

[zappa4ever]

Sure didn't expect 2 pts before the game started

Near-perfect 1st pd. that was impressive, Eller line ruled
2nd was up and down and holy hell with the O-zone penalties, good PK though and helluva shot by Sprong to tie
3rd was pretty good and looked like OT after failing on the 5min PP

Other than Z's bad turnover there were really few mistakes this game, sure they felt great in the locker room post-game after pulling out the W with <30sec. left. Good on the boys for almost playing a full 60

 

[Roshi]

Loved every minute through the game. Well except another wave of injuries. Anything besides that was just great.

This game deserves to be treated as a whole team effort, not going to single out anyone

Just rest everyone whos feeling sour next game. The team pulled it through with 5 points in the bank for the hardest part of it already, anything beyond this point is too much already. Lavi really sold it for the guys and they grinded through it! Just let everyone on the taxi squad to participate and buy in for this russianless train.

The stretch is turning into a real grow-together moment.

Well he is hot...

 

[kicksavedave]

So does Shultzie get both the offense and defense Cobra Kai headbands in the locker room tonight?

 

[AussieCapsFan]

Well he is hot...

Haha yes he's a good looking guy - but imagine what the locker room in Chicago was like after he'd bonked one of his teammate's wives

(in fairness, I don't think those rumours were ever substantiated, and he denied them)
