GDT: Game 51 | WSH @ CBJ | 1/31 7:00 PM

[MoeBartoli]

A Peeke-a-boo goal!!! Needed that

 

[ThirdPeriodTurtle]

Bemström fumbles on a wide open net. He's snakebitten, you need to bury that even if it's not perfect.

Lol Peeke almost scores again after passes from Laine and Johnny. Not even a bad shot honestly, Lindgren makes a great save.

 

[Cowumbus]

Sigh, if that pass isn’t in his skates that’s a goal

 

[MoeBartoli]

Bemstrom with his patented whiff!

 

[KJ Dangler]

Bemstroms time is probably done here . Great play by Foudy

 

[Cowumbus]

Bemström fumbles on a wide open net.

You ever tried to one-time a puck in tight between your skates?

 

[KJ Dangler]

Peeke with 5 goals on the season

 

[MoeBartoli]

You ever tried to one-time a puck in tight between your skates?

the puck had enough speed on it that just a redirect was needed. He really didn’t need to shoot . It was another example of Bemstrom clutching

I have yes, and I'm sure I'd fail the same. But he should be way better than me. I mean it happens, it's just that when it starts becoming a habit (of not scoring on chances) it's bad...

Silly with some nice stickhandling. He's quietly gotten a bit better lately I feel. Which is maybe not that great because maybe they'll keep him up instead of sending down...

Haha Johnny ducking behind the goal when he sees Boone shooting at the mask of Lindgren. Could make some memes of that.

Anyhow a pretty even period, stuff happening on both ends and some chances for both (I feel we got the better ones).

That does not change the location of where the pass went..

 

[ThirdPeriodTurtle]

I wonder some years into the future if we could have a VR/AR experience where we could just step into situations and see if we could do better. Would be awesome and we could have these argumentative face-offs trying to prove our points.

 

[ThirdPeriodTurtle]

Silly to Marchenko hits the goal post. Good work by this line again, KJ starting it all.

 

[Cowumbus]

Gooning it up now

 

[VABUCK]

Refs seem clueless. Making up penalties after each scrum.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

That play was sick by kuznetsov

 

[Vapaatunnus]

Thst was a bad goal

 

[Cowumbus]

Why did Laine dump that puck at the end of 4v4? Why not let Peeke keep possession of the puck behind the net while we change? Just have the Caps free possession and it leads to a goal.

 

[ThirdPeriodTurtle]

Laine and Marchenko on the 4-on-4 intrigues me. Didn't see any chemistry yet but they could develop into some kind of a forechecking line...

1-3 Washington TvR just waiting near the post...

 

[VABUCK]

Easy to score when the D doesn't get between the shooter and the net.

 

[Vapaatunnus]

Robby!

 

[ThirdPeriodTurtle]

2-3 Robinson! He's been quiet lately but scores again, nice pass by Olivier and Robinson puts it home.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Fourth line has had a great game

 

[stevo61]

Fourth line has had a great game

I feel like they usually do when Kuraly is physical but keeps his emotions in check

 

[MoeBartoli]

Fourth line has had a great game

It’s a much better line when Robby is there instead of Foudy. Their main issue has been Kuraly and Olivier take too many two Minute penalties that puts the opponent on the PP

 

[majormajor]

I was under the impression when we brought in Kuraly that he and Boone would be on their back 9, i.e. slowing down. Decent players but slow, and too many years on their deals. They look like they're faster than ever now.
