Post-Game Talk: Them(Carolina) VS Us(Washington) - Game 6

[IafrateOvie34]

Love Ovy calling out the officials.

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Why didn't they challenge the goal that would have tied it??

They did

 

[WcRoenick97]

I can’t stand this Canes team. I’ll be at Game 7. I’ve never wanted to destroy a non-Penguins team so badly.

 

[SpinningEdge]

Ovi is the only player playing with a lot of fire. Deservedly so.

All things considered I wouldn’t want any other Caps team we’ve ever iced in a game 7.

Why didn't they challenge the goal that would have tied it??

When there is an "intent to blow the whistle" I don't think it's reviewable...

 

[Capsman]

Reirden never ever should have been hired. Was very clear that our approach was to play conservatively and it was beyond stupid. We were not going to win like that, fed into Carolina’s momentum and fed the crowd. He badly screwed the pooch. Not to mention having no approach to Carolina stacking the blue line. The chips were mostly misplaced, guys were not in position to support each each other on the cycle, we weren’t finding the soft spots in the offensive zone. Reirden simply does not have them prepared.

The replay they just showed ... Ovie's stick touched the pad, but the pad was not on the puck. No harm, no foul.

Plus, the puck being loose into the net is different from shoving the goalie in control of the puck across the line isn’t it?

[OviTaughtMe]

I hate to say it, but game seven at home, and vs a lesser opponent.


Is that why the pens won back to back, you had runs by many teams like the oilers, Detroit, Chicago, islanders, Phili? Is that why teams trade for tallent at the deadline? Because it’s all luck? Get out of here with that crap

I don’t care about series that happened back when the league was the UFC or when teams hoarded great players based on territorial advantages

None of this matters. Have to win game 7 (pray we get Bounces)

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

The game 7 Chants were so JV

 

[BiPolar Caps]

On tbat last highlight it showed the puck was in front of Mracsek free between his two pads and not under the pads. He didn't know where the puck was never had any possession of it and turned towards his own goal when Ovechkin reached under the pad and pushed the puck that was free and not in Mracsek's possession intothe goal. The little time that the refs spent reviewing the play is quite telling, they lacked the courage to call it correctly.

 

[RandyHolt]

I don't have the local feed.

Locker said Ovi hit the pad first, but then JoeB went on and on saying but Ovi didn't push the pad into the net... admitted he had homer googles etc, but was adamant. Locker kind of bit his tongue.

I don't doubt the goals happen like that often, but it was a lot more common in the Dale era. I am sure we will get the exact rule here soon enough.

 

[Linnie The Pooh]

Not even going to talk about B.S. Ovi no goal call. All I am going to say is pack up your bags and head back home boys and wrap this series up on home ice. LETS GO CAPS!!!!!!

Lot of drama there

 

[AussieCapsFan]

Look at their secondary scoring then and look at it when they don’t win. That is what it boils down to. Yes, you need elite talent but you need randos to have the series of their lives

We don’t get that now but did last year.

It helps to suck enough to get high lottery picks as well

I never bought the lazy argument because it’s silly.

They're not lazy but the intensity level just falls away with them. After Ovie scored to make it 2-1 they went to sleep and let the Canes take over. Then it's tied 2-2 and suddenly they are like "oh f*** we need to try and win again".
Then zzz back to sleep. I watched most of the game after we led 2-1 thinking "They are playing like they want it to go to a game 7 at home".

 

[IafrateOvie34]

I believe the Caps will win game 7.

 

[4thTierSport]

The game 7 Chants were so JV

The crowd proved they were morons way before that.

 

[StrikingDistance]

Stupid team is stupid. They let the wrong coach go.

Better check your turntable, the broken record is skippin.

 

[Corby78]

Boys better be ready, that monkey we flung off our back last year wants another ride

 

[Dr John Carlson]

I don't know. Team doesn't seem that worse than last year... they're just missing an entire second line.

 

[Portable Mink]

This is our worst series than I can remember since losing to tampa

 

[Brucelenok]

I never seen Ovi that pissed in my life before. He is due to a hattrick in game 7. Watch

 

[Lawd Stanley]

Good game by Carolina. Caps 0-4 in game 7 at home in Ovi era. I know it’s “at home” and “in the Ovi era” and actually has no bearing whatsoever on the result but hey they won he Cup. IF They lose in the first round then they lose. Happened to Boston (by the Caps) and others too. At least they weren’t swept like Pit and Bolts. I mean it happens sometimes. Carolina has been so good since the new year and caps couldn’t beat them at home. On to game 7 hoping to be 1-4 after this. Hopefully Justin Williams doesn’t go into beast mode.

 

[peterthegreat12]

Ugh. This team has lots of problems right now. Vrana, Kuzy, etc. I also happen to think the coaching staff is lacking. I’ve said it all year and I’ve never said anything else of the sort. I don’t give AF about Trotz so don’t mention him.

 

[Lindemann]

This is our worst series than I can remember since losing to tampa

2011 Tampa says hi...

Edit, nice edit lmao
