That 3rd was total domination.

Great game. Lindgren was brilliant.

 

[HandsomeTom43]

Ovi is washed.

 

[tycoonheart]

Props to defense. Jets' speed was a non factor. They did a great job keeping everything to the outside for the most part. And when Chuckie is on his game he is so damn good.

 

[Firsov99]

A crucial game on Tuesday against the Wings. Need a regulation win.

 

[Holtbyisms]

Ovi is washed.

If nothing else this run to the 16th-17th draft pick is creating lots of Ovi goals and ultimately that's what we're all here for this next couple years.

 

[max21]

Put the word out that we back up

Going to be honest, didn't think they would win this one, but they came through! Loved the Oshie ceremony at the beginning. Seeing Backstrom with Oshie, Ovie, and Carlson was bittersweet. This last run might be the swan song for this group of all time Caps. No more tank talk, let's enjoy this while we can.

 

[notDkristich]

so tired of not being able to stream games lately. i should not have to pay for 5 freaking services. thanks nhl

 

[Empty Goal Net]

The Capitals have won four of their past five games, a stretch in which Ovechkin has scored eight goals. He had just eight goals in his first 43 games.

 

[Bananas]

The Sellers are on

 

[Praetorian Caps]

 

[Ovie's Neighbor]

My favorite part of Lapierres game is his back checking and defensive responsibility. He has a chance to develop into a Selke level player.

 

[twabby]

My game puck goes to Charlie Lindgren for keeping them in the game at the beginning, and ending with another shutout.

Honorable mentions to the old guys: TJ Oshie, Alex Ovechkin, and John Carlson. Also Dylan Strome.

 

[ovikovy817]

2nd full game in a row for me. Starting time helped. Interesting end of the seasons is coming
Wonderful 3rd period.

Ovi

Big game against Detroit. Need to W in regulation.

f*** the #1 pick if its just gonna be rigged for a team like the hawks anyway

The lottery system for nhl and nba is so dumb, just do it like the nfl does

Much has been made about the Caps tough schedule going forward but this narrative ignores the Red Wings also difficult schedule. Seems like a wash to me.

Tues: Wings @ Caps
March 28: Caps @ Leafs; Wing @ Canes
March 30: Bruins @ Caps; Wings @ Panthers
April 1: Wings @ Bolts
April 2: Caps @ Sabres
April 4: Penguins @ Caps
April 5: Caps @ Canes; Rangers @ Wings
April 7: Sens @ Caps; Sabres @ Wings
April 9: Caps @ Wings
April 11: Caps @ Sabres; Wings @ Pens
April 13: Bolts @ Caps; Wings @ at Leafs
April 15: Bruins @ Caps; Habs @ Wings
April 16: Caps @ Flyers; Wings @ Habs

Wings have Cane's, Cats, Bolts and Rags in their next four games. I think the two games between each other will settle it. If either team can gain 3 pts or 4 on the other, they're going to the playoffs. A differential of 2 or fewer pts will be a nail biter.

This kids comparable was Bergeron.

He seems like he’s going to be a good one.

#1: When in doubt, skate it out

They could have avoided the safe play a bit more. Fewer short passes and dump-outs, and more end-to-end rushes next game.

#2: Continue taking advantage of Tom Wilson's absence

Solid defensive effort and timely scoring. They need to continue getting wins while the anchor is temporarily removed.

#3: Keep short shifts to a minimum

They did a good job getting hemmed in their zone and having extended shifts. The rope-a-dope strategy always works!

 

[SherVaughn30]

Theory and studies only have meaning if they can be put into action and yield tangible results. Hopefully I have adequately demonstrated to the reader the fruits of my academic endeavors in the science of keymaking.

It is with a great sense of duty and patriotism that I submit to you my to the game:

#1: When in doubt, skate it out

#2: Continue taking advantage of Tom Wilson's absence

#3: Keep short shifts to a minimum

#4: Twabby will always hate Tom Wilson!

 

[bacchist]

I will be in attendance. Got a last minute offer last night. My first time ever in a suite. LFG!

It worked. Ted should put me in a suite until we clinch.

So weird to be in the middle of a playoff race and be obsessing over what draft pick we're getting.

 

[Ovie's Neighbor]

Agreed. It’s so nice to be close to April and still playing games that matter, watching other teams and rooting for losses. Maybe we don’t get in the playoffs but at least we get a taste of playoff hockey.

 

[Holtbyisms]

Rather have another top tier prospect than a failed playoff run. Been watching those for decades outside of 98 & 18.
