Post-Game Talk: Pickpocket the bloo jockets 7:07pm

Carlson has the whole net and shoots right back into the goalie. We have had some great chances but the puck just isn’t bouncing our way.

 

[Capsman]

Caps have been hitting all year. Tonight nothing.

When they come out hitting they are a different team. Remember just last game with Hathaway flying all over? They were a hard hitting, more energetic team.

You don’t always have to hit - but vs this team that added energy would of been nice.

Hitting is only part of it. I’ve seen games when we hit and hit but the other team skates circles around us. We get so focused on hitting that the puck goes right past us.

I'm not sure. Some teams thrive on that, so giving it to them is maybe not the best plan. In any case, I hope the Caps can rally here, but if not, I'll take allowing 18 shots against and losing vs. allowing 30+. They clearly had a different gameplan for tonight. It may not work out, but giving up 2 > giving up 5.

So losing to the BJs really is a thing. I think we are 1-4 against them since the Cup run, maybe 1-5 after tonight.

Against the 28th team in the league....

 

[marcel snapshot]

Ok - now it’s game

 

[Ovie's Neighbor]

Columbus has scored on their chances And the Caps haven’t.

 

[peterthegreat12]

Nic Dowd is apparently the key.

pretty much this

 

[IafrateOvie34]

Better hope Columbus don't sneak in the playoffs as an 8th seed.

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Glad to have spent my night on this shit

 

[Firsov99]

It’s a lost game, but we deserve at least a goal.

 

[Capsman]

May agrees with me. We are in huge trouble if we play Carolina or Columbus in the playoffs. Reirden has been schooled by Torts and Brind’Amour.

Wilson has not been very good of late by the way.

 

[Holtbyisms]

Jesus f***ing Christ this game pissed me the f*** off and put me in a bad f***ing mood.

 

[StrikingDistance]

Safe to say this will be the last Caps/BJs game I watch this season. Columbus, is like the Bermuda triangle of entertaining hockey. They're the Canes but with no skilled players.

Onto the Blues/Avs game.

Not sure that will be any consolation if we exit in the first or second round. Should be all the more reason to watch and see if the Caps can adjust.

 

[4thTierSport]

Holy f***, how as a NHL lineman do you f*** up that Icing call?

 

[Capsman]

They’ve really had little traffic in front of Korpisalo.

I agree. They just didn’t seem to have good energy here tonight.

 

[Firsov99]

At least Willy won a fight for us.

Unless the BJs are playing the Caps for the rest of the regular season, I'm not worried about seeing them in the playoffs. TR definitely has to watch some tape because we might see the Canes again.

 

[4thTierSport]

So that is a game suspension for Savard right?

 

[hb12xchamps]

Refreshing the main board for the inevitable thread by that dumbass NHL Safety guy

Everyone will completely ignore the easiest Instigator and 1 game suspension not called by the refs.
