Post-Game Talk: Game 6: Caps @ Pens | 5/7/18 | 7:00pm EST

[McVechkin]

What did I miss about Nathan walker being stormy?

 

[Bladerunner]

Sigh...

This could be bad

Sheesh, been hearing reports both ways. Last I heard "game time decision".

In addition to Bura out, and Wilson's ridic 3 game suspension, now Nick. And is John C more/less "okay"

 

[IafrateOvie34]

If youth take this game over and win this series, I'm going to do backflips.

Go Caps!

 

[Sam Spade]

Looks like this dude was right. Here is his last tweet:



FYI, NHL XM Radio was reporting this way early today as well.

p.s. I never dismiss a rumor guy when he seems so sure of his source.

 

[Bladerunner]

In the playoffs area I've spend as much time in other series threads as I have in the Caps-Pitt series thread.

Think I'll spend my time here. I'll get worked up too much in the playoff mains

 

[WcRoenick97]

Line not really changing even with Backstrom out tonight. That is a good sign.

 

[Capathetic]

Who knows maybe they come out flying and get a little run support for Holtby and the Caps hang on. Fresh legs might not be bad. Eller needs to play with discipline.

SMH. If this is true, even if we get past Pitt, what chance do we have vs. a rested TB without a reasonably healthy NB19?

It means everything to vanquish these ghosts though for the sake of the core.

Close this one out tonight Washington, you’re team has been boned by the league, because when thise flightless birds start crying Uncle Gary swoops right in and makes sure Cindy gets his way, Wilson got f***ed on that lame 3 game suspension, don’t care it was a clean hit from a bigger man crushing a guy who saw it coming,
Anywho just eliminate these cock bags the collective fan base of the NHL will thank you

 

[Brian23]

No Backstrom is huge. We need the Russians to be magic tonight.

 

[newjerseydamo]

Aussie Devils fan coming in peace.

Please beat the Penguins today with an Aussie in the line up.

Also, always wanted Ovi to win a cup, so I'm hoping they go all the way. A Jets/Capitals SCF would be quite insane and entertaining I think.

One thing at a time. And whatever else happens tonight, hope for a game 7 between the Preds and Jets.

HELL YEAH!!! OVI! The Captain! 1:0 Caps! Keep it going boys!



just a quick dress rehearsal

Gross. Why would you even look that up?

 

[FinRanger]

Rangers fan here! I am cheering for Caps today! We have had fierce rivalries before but I still respect Caps and it would about time Ovechkin gets the praise he deserves and gets to 3rd round! Beat Cindy and those ugly ass Pens! Let's go Ovie and Caps!

 

[hockeykicker]

Lets not forget, they played basically the entire third period down a forward aka backstrom and scored 4 goals. Gotta believe

 

[Brian23]

Japers Rink brought it up with Greenberg. Tryna reverse jinx personally.

 

[SpinningEdge]

Half our top 6 out... 5 rookies playing... on the road against Pitt in a huge game.

This is the hockey gods slapping us in the face.

 

[IafrateOvie34]

Walker for the GWG!

 

[strungout]

60 minutes of hell...bring it!!

 

[StrikingDistance]

Bartender asked us if we wanted the game on...the looks on our faces:

 

[RandyHolt]

is malkin trying to grow a beard

 

[SanderSen]

Sens fan jumping on the top of the bandwagon. Nothing would be sweeter than to see the Pens out tonight.
