Post-Game Talk: Regrettably, there is a game today. G56: Canes @ Caps | 3/3/22 | 7:00p ET

I watched the recording last night when i got home. totally a much better team effort.

Also really noticeable to me:
1. Oshie looked the best he has looked since returning to lineup. Sometimes takes a couple of games
2. We had a lot of bodies in front of the net both on PP and 5x5 - always a winning formula

Now build momentum. Have to beat Seattle tomorrow!

I dunno, I recall watching him trying to stick to his guy in our zone a few times and he was a step behind every time on the cycle coverage.

There’s a difference between acceleration and top speed skating I would think. I’ve seen Nick look fairly fast once he really gets his stride going. That first Philly game when he got beaten on the right wing is an example of that.

Agreed...once he gets the tugboat moving he's ok....it's the agility I think looks off.
