GDT: Game #44|Jackets@Capitals|Stanley Cup Revenge Game|1-12-19|7:00 P.M.

[MFRONE]

Z is having a hell of a night exiting the zone with tbe puck

 

[aRussian]

Need to muster some shots on net, getting stuck and Washington getting better chances. Can’t try to sit on 1 goal

 

[MFRONE]

Jackets still can’t hit the net

 

[aRussian]

Need to shore this up, play continues to slip. I hate how the team is comfortable letting play tilt to opponents when we have a lead

 

[MFRONE]

That line got absolutely dominated, lucky to still have the lead

 

[NotWendell]

Nick... maybe you should drop the gloves???
Yeah, you're right, f*** this! (And then he starts wailing on the Papa John's guy)

The Papa title will be passed

 

[Robert]

A nail biter.... Jackets are on their heels...

 

[Johansen2Foligno]

I keep on thinking Stenlund is Calvert aka Toilet Seat

 

[NotWendell]

Love these quick counter-attacks

 

[Viqsi]

I... would not have expected Sedlak to win that puck race. Wow.

 

[aRussian]

Duclair seems hell bent on getting ahead of play to exclusion of all else. Seems to ruin the offense of that line by forcing a pass to him and the entry ends up being poor

 

[MAHJ71]

really? I think Stenlund has looked more than fine so far. he’s definitely holding his own against the top team in the metro.

Wasn't saying he wasn't contributing. Just reminds me of how Milano plays. Fast but gets pushed around.

 

[Robert]

I... would not have expected Sedlak to win that puck race. Wow.

He didn't, it was relative to the mud the Cap was stuck in...

 

[MAHJ71]

Really wanted something good to happen for Sedsey there.. heckuva attempt

 

[MFRONE]

The offense is just a dumpster fire right now

 

[aRussian]

Well at least these last few minutes we haven’t been sitting. Really want us to figure the backup goalie

 

[MFRONE]

Orpik was playing the pass the whole way and Dubois refused to shoot it...just terrible

 

[Cowumbus]

Maybe why Torts was mad at him earlier this year?

 

[NotWendell]

I don't know. We're playing sound defensively then pouncing on the scoring opportunities as they're presented. All the good teams do this.

 

[Robert]

Orpik saved a goal... He's making up for his blown give away earlier..

 

[Viqsi]

I don't know. We're playing sound defensively then pouncing on the scoring opportunities as they're presented. All the good teams do this.

I just presume folks are dissatisfied that we haven't been converting those opportunities, and so the negatives are getting magnified.

Agree, but the shot setups and shots at the net have been marginal at best..

 

[Johansen2Foligno]

Sweaty palms time coming up

 

[NotWendell]

I just presume folks are dissatisfied that we haven't been converting those opportunities, and so the negatives are getting magnified.

I presume you're right. The Caps have also been positioned well defensively.
