GDT: Kings @ Caps 7PM

[895]

Ovie not shooting. Good.

 

[Liberati0n*]

They are a great team when they play like they care.

You know Mike Green was one of the main "great" players there, don't you?

 

[Bananas]

I've said this once and I'll say it again:

I want George gone but it would really be something if we won it with him. Talk about an epic LongCon

 

[foundhockey]

How about Ovi crashing down the slot like a bull in a china shop

right into the goal post

That was super cool, haha.

But man, Hillen. Ouch.

No Backstrom for shoot out! Oh no

 

[g00n]

same move, not this time

 

[Skrudland2Lomakin]

Oates on the bench "Jesus OV, get out there and back check, play some defense, what's the worst that could happen?!"

10 seconds later they cart Hillen's lifeless body to the locker room

 

[John Price]

LA wins.

 

[msrulo]

A point at least

 

[Carlzner]

Well... damn. Don't even know if they deserved a win tonight but the last minute in OT was probably the best minute they've played all season.

 

[edamer]

Hard to beat a team like LA in the shootout considering their talent. Oh well. One point. It sucks but it's better than 0.

 

[Liberati0n*]

Halak really choked when the game was on the line tonight, a few times.

It would be nice to have a goalie who got stronger as the game went on, as, for example, Holtby did the other night.

 

[MrGone]

You know Mike Green was one of the main "great" players there, don't you?

Are you willing to put 4x6.5 on seeing that player on a regular basis? Its a fools bet.

 

[ryan519*]

halak sucks in the shootout, thats one thing holtby definitely beats him in

 

[caps4cup]

Halak let in about 3 soft goals tonight and that's the difference. Oh, and he couldn't make a single damn save in the shootout. Start Holtby next game. Not good enough from him tonight.

 

[foundhockey]

Oates on the bench "Jesus OV, get out there and back check, play some defense, what's the worst that could happen?!"

10 seconds later they cart Hillen's lifeless body to the locker room

Oh, I shouldn't have laughed, but that's hilarious.

 

[IafrateOvie34]

What a wacky game. Cardiac Caps is an appropriate title.

 

[foundhockey]

halak sucks in the shootout, thats one thing holtby definitely beats him in

Agreed.

 

[SkinsFan09]

So when do we get the news that Backstrom is out for 4-6 weeks...in typical Capitals style.

Also, Halak was terrible the 3rd period/SO. Give Holtby the next start.

 

[InfernalDark*]

Halak and shootouts... baaaaaaaaad.

 

[ryan519*]

thank god toronto lost in regulation

 

[mad4comp]

So when do we get the news that Backstrom is out for 4-6 weeks...in typical Capitals style.

Right after Grabovski returns... player for a player.

 

[RandyHolt]

It was nice to see Ovi skating his hardest again. Well except crushing poor Hillen.

Kuz pots his first goal and then whiffs in the shootout... bummer.

Loser point is fine by me.

I am still stunned Green hit someone in open ice tonight. I didn't expect to ever see that again from him.

Orlov is so ready to take on more offensively.

 

[ynotcaps]

That was the most intense 6 minutes -- of hockey -- I've seen in a long while. Almost enough to make it seem like they didn't drop a 3-1 lead in the 3rd.

 

[Corby78]

Kuzy got us a point. We could have used 2, and should have gotten em both.

FYI; we have lost 7 out of our last 9 shootouts

 

[Capitlols]

For better or for worse, they would be in the playoffs.
