Post-Game Talk: Les Capitals de Washington @ Les Canadiens de Montréal 7:30 PM

[Alexander the Gr8]

As most of you know, I missed the Habs game for my b-day in Washington because of a delayed flight. My best friend who was on the same flight as me to Toronto in transit to China bought me a ticket for tonight's game as a surprise. He's a great lad, and I might just be able to convince him to cheer for the Caps.

Caps win 5-4, Ovi hits 1000 points. Let's get it done.

I'm feeling a #toplineconnolly hat trick

 

[g00n]

Holtby confirmed in net but that's it so far. Price or Montoya?

 

[Chukcha]

any news on Osh? is he OK?

 

[notDkristich]

GDT too fancy. Loss incoming.

This is probably going to be a tough game for us. That being said, I feel an ugly 2-1 win, for whatever that's worth.

Also predict some people complain about our defense pairs tonight.

 

[Chukcha]

roster losses are pretty equal. No Gallagher and Byron for the habs.

loss + boring as hell game

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

roster losses are pretty equal. No Gallagher and Byron for the habs.

Byron will most likely return tonight.
Possible, but I think unlikely for Galcheyuk, Markov and Shaw

 

[BiPolar Caps]

Holtby named NHL's third star of the week.

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

3-2 OT win

 

[SpinningEdge]

Hat trick for Holtby today.... meaning shutout 3 in a row

 

[Calicaps]

Oshie out, Wilson in per Isabelle

 

[trick9]

Few injuries and Habs line-up looks absolutely brutal. Danault as the 1C.

That being said wouldn't be surprised if this was a loss. Capitals always struggle when the opposing team lets their AHL guys loose.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Feels like we're due a bad game. 4-2 Bad guys.

Holtby confirmed in net but that's it so far. Price or Montoya?

Price usually gets Bell Center starts.

 

[g00n]

Price usually gets Bell Center starts.

Generally a safe assumption but you never know. fwiw Price now confirmed.

 

[ovikovy817]

Keep rolling.

 

[twabby]

Win one for Easy for Kuzy.

 

[g00n]

Win one for Easy for Kuzy.

WIN IT FOR E4K!!!!

Hate playing without Oshie. Guy has become a core player for this team.

 

[hockeykicker]

apparently wilson is playing but he says he will be playing hurt

Why play him then? When admitting your hurt you put a target on your back.

Also, Wilson is one tough kid. If he's admitting he's hurt.... he's probably pretty darn hurt.

11 games in next 20 days. Why not just give him the rest?

Or, he wants them to target him so he can beat the snot out of them. They'd never see it coming
