Amazing the Caps are where they are in the standings consider the number of calls against them + posts hit.

Can't decide who I hate on this team more Jensen or Panik. 5 million of dead presidents down the drain. Watching them trying to play is just plain frustrating.

It has to be Panik. Jensen can at least skate himself out of trouble on occasion. I’ve yet to see a positive attribute be displayed consistently by Panik.

 

[Skrudland2Lomakin]

Is it me or are a lot of Kneeing caused by the player being hit *****ing out on a hit and causing the knee contact?

No you're right, in 2019 kneeing is usually called when the hitter has the guy lined up from 10 meters out and doesn't make any move, the recipient tries to bail and typically catches a knee, refs still call it every time though.

Real kneeing penalties almost always get a call for DoPs.

Jensen is one of the softest creatures in a hockey uniform I have ever seen in my entire life. Soft as a butter under pressure. You can bet all the money you have and even some you don't that if he's behind his own net or somewhere near the boards with a guy on him a giveaway is coming.

We're barely top 10 in PIMA which is impressive given how physical our team is (7th in hits per game).


I feel like if you wanted to claim we're unfairly penalized you have a lot of other/better years to use.

This is basically a repeat of the Caps effort level in the NYR game right now, except that the Rangers can score.

Agreed. 99 times on pk now this year. They’ve had 85 pp’s. Still 18-4-5

 

[max21]

Lol are we really losing to the Red Wings

 

[SpinningEdge]

We outshot then 12-9 and it seems like that makes no sense. Seems like Detroit carried that period

All those shots were from the outside. Det's shots mostly were taken in point blank situations after embarrassing defensive breakdowns.

 

[AtNightWeFly]

I'm not surprised by any of this.

 

[tenken00]

That was braindead Kempny lol.

 

[tenken00]

Tic tac oshie

 

[SpinningEdge]

Okay now let’s dominate even strength

 

[Skrudland2Lomakin]

They're pinching in way too deep on this PP, this is prime Ovechkin territory, no idea why we insist on feeding it across the crease.

 

[tenken00]

Lot of new PP wrinkles, players and different set plays this game. Experimenting? Looks good getting good looks close up to the net

 

[AtNightWeFly]

I want more goals dammit!

 

[tenken00]

Wow that was prime ovie!

 

[AtNightWeFly]

Thank you!

 

[Empty Goal Net]

Ovie, really? The deke, swirl around the net, and finish. I would not have expected him to successfully complete that sequence.

 

[Sam Spade]

Ovie should retire any day now, I read it here last night.

 

[kicksavedave]

Ovie should retire any day now, I read it here last night.

We should trade him while his value is high.
