Just be glad you don't have to be them. Must be miserable.Man, reading the barrage of negativity and people ripping into players/coaches... When I see the same posters in a GDT with score 6-0 Caps all I can think is 'Why don't you get the **** out?'
You take a giant **** on the team after every tiny setback, you don't deserve to enjoy an ounce of success.
Carolina will play like they have nothing to lose again. I really felt like game 5 could have gone very differently, if it goes the other way early in game 7 we are in trouble. I felt this was the game to win the series.I believe the Caps will win game 7.
COA, better ice, last change. I've learned not to like our chances in HG7s, but home ice has been good so far in this series.
Gotta love the captain.
They did
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 frustrating this is that it shouldn't even be GOING to a game 7.
You're right. Was guilty by myself. In our defense, that's how we cope with bad emotions: typing on this boardMan, reading the barrage of negativity and people ripping into players/coaches...

Again, there are no conclusions to draw from one game/series/ postseason to another.
And before you pull the #Trotz! Excuse, what was his record before 2018?
But didn't he hit the puck and the pad? That happens all the time in scrums like that.I called Caps in 7 so I’ll take the blame for this one!
Carolina is good. Really good. Their forwards aren’t fantastic but all 6 of their D can play and they never let up.
Also I’m going to say I think the refs may have got that call right. He pushed his pad, and even if the puck isn’t covered you can’t push a goalie’s pad with your stick. But it still rules that Ovie showed up the refs because let’s be honest, NHL refs suck.
Put Stall’s goal under the dumb bounce column. Cane player drive bying the net had the puck bounce off his skate right to the area by Stall’s stick.haha Who do you think won the Cup last year? That unemotional stone-faced Trotz with the dancing eyebrows who played broken Alzner over Schmidt and kept Willy on the 4th line in the playoffs vs Pens and didn't get past the 2nd round for 4 years? Let's beat that dead horse some more.
1) Canes and their lucky bounces (Jdub made 1 good play)
2) Goal called back
3) Could of easily gone into OT
4) Kempny - Out
5) Oshie - Out
But it's all on TR. Riiiighhhhht.

We don’t respond well to teams hustling, pressuring the puck. We have to counter with our own pressure so they don’t have the same energy. Brind’Amour told his team to leave nothing on the table; I have no idea whatsoever what Reirden told his team.

For all the whining about Kuzy, at least he got some pucks to the front of the net.
“At the very least”. He’s been bad this playoffs so far ya gotta admit.
