Post-Game Talk: Game 12 : Flyers @ Caps : 12pm ET

[ovikovy817]

All together, Washington has played 30 games on Super Bowl Sunday, earning 17 wins, 11 losses and 2 ties, but have lost the last three dating back to a loss to the Vegas Golden Knights in 2018.

This Sunday will be Washington’s 28th game in the last 34 Super Bowl Sundays, missing games in just 1999, 2002, 2004, 2005, 2006 and 2008, and having played on every Super Bowl Sunday dating back to 2009.

Just win.

The Flyers have been really bad this year. Even with the absences this should be a win.

So many regulars out..it’s going to be tough to beat the boys in orange.

They have more points than we do...

7-3-2 is really bad?

What the hell is going on with Samsonov?

What the hell is going on with Samsonov?

is he still on covid inactive list? everyone reacts differently to the virus

 

[BallardEra]

I just want to see a good combined team defensive effort.

 

[Ridley Simon]

Do we know the lineup yet?

Good sign at least.

 

[zappa4ever]

Do we know the lineup yet?

Either they're in, or they're out, or they got Covid, or they didn't

 

[tenken00]

No Oshie or Vrana but Eller probably will be back.

 

[Random schmoe]

Do we know the lineup yet?

Best we've got I think. And apparently they may not have enough cap space to recall anyone to fill in for injured players.

 

[ovikovy817]

And of course NHL will not ppd the game.

 

[Devil Dancer]

Guys, I'm available!

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Why does the NHL hate us lol

 

[pman25]

So much for the “maintenance” days. I’ll keep that in mind for whoever else has maintenance day going forward

 

[TheLegendOfPatPeake]

I’ve got my skates and stick. I’m ready to hop in. Club team, Western Michigan 2003, let’s go.

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

Are we able to call up players from Hershey? I’m thinking we could use CMM right now.

 

[ovikovy817]

At least it seems like Caps boston and Philadelphia are a lock for the PO in the east because other 5 teams are big mess.

So the most important thing is to be healthy r1g1

I hope Eller is 100% ready today and Caps don't rush him because of Oshie's absence.

 

[pman25]

Right now I’m really wishing we signed more reclamation project league minimum types. Is Maillet any good?

 

[MintyFresh88]

Are you guys anticipating Vanecek to start? Thanks.

 

[Melkor]

Sensing another shitshow..

They have more points than we do...

I am serious. They've been riding some pretty ridiculous percentages and even still are only 7-5, plus they have some injuries/absences of their own.

Not saying I'll be shocked if the Capitals lose, just saying if I were a betting man I'd pick the Capitals.

It's the same reason why I expect Pittsburgh will rebound and likely be a good team down the stretch: they've been incredibly unlucky this season and their goaltending numbers will certainly improve.

 

[Ridley Simon]

With all the missing players? Caps are doomed I tell ya — DOOMED
