Did Kuzy make a cocaine joke or did I totally misunderstand that?

Koken: Do you still feel a buzz playing against Vegas?

Kuzy: ...that's coming to my side now.

 

[Sam Spade]

It's amazing how good the Caps offense been so far. After the first 3 games to start the season (3 G, 2 G, 3 G), the Caps have scored 4 or more goals. Every. Single. Game.

Wow, that is a good run.

 

[txpd]

Caps are good it appears.

 

[tenken00]

Wow, that is a good run.

Actually I'm drunk and wrong LOL.

Still a good run

 

[notDkristich]

lol at backstroms slap shot on open net. he was tired of watching OV miss all of those open goal chances

 

[Calicaps]

Caps averaging 2.4 GA per game over the last 5.

Phrasing, Al.

Interesting to see what they do with Panik now.

I don't think it will be interesting. The team is rolling without him but I'm sure he will be in the lineup. Probably on the 3rd line.
The question is who gets sent down?

That’s what makes it interesting..

 

[tenken00]

Depends on Hagelin's injury. But one injured out one injured in

 

[maacoshark]

That’s what makes it interesting..

Id rather see them send Panik down.

 

[maacoshark]

Holtby played a very good game tonight. Excellent positioning and rebound control all game.

 

[Sam Spade]

Vegas only had 3 high danger chances? Way to go defense!!

 

[txpd]

any word on why the vegas asst coach got toss?

My drunk buddy yesterday was like "I'm going to put $1000 on the Caps over Vegas giving 1.5 goals."

I told him dont be an idiot.

I'm the idiot

 

[Fallschirmyager]

I truly hope so. That would be wonderful.

I'd love to see all the heads explode on the main boards.

Is that an NHL record for most games with a player with 2 goals or more now? It was 7 last game right? So should be 8 now?

I know they said it was a CAPS record but have not heard anyone say NHL record.

Nostradamus you are not

 

[Lobodomy]

Fell asleep couple of hours before game started

Nice win

 

[TRASHCAT]

Bet the over for caps games for free $$$

 

[ALLCAPSALLTHETIME]

Nice win!

Especially nice with ol' whipping boy scoring his first NHL goal and the GWG. Way to go Siegs!

 

[ovikovy817]

Nice game all around.
Glad for Siegs first and also for Nicky too.
I love this 2nd line.
BTW, Siegs keeps the streak alive lol (goals in every 2nd period this year)

Don't know if this an NHL record, but when they did it last game, I saw a tweet that the last team to do so was Boston in 2012 or 2013.

 

[AussieCapsFan]

I’m at the game, I saw Reaves and Wilson talking on ice before the puck drop. Really got me fired up, wonder what they were saying. Anyone else by chance see that?

Sorry I know this is a late reply - they showed that (Reaves and Wilson talking before puck drop) in the game feed and they seemed to be laughing and getting along. It was kind of bizarre. The commentators said that Reaves had said something about how he thought he and Wilson could be buddies off the ice and Wilson seemed "like the kind of guy you'd want to hang out with".

So, yeah, probably wasn't the trash talking you were hoping for

I think Reaves and Wilson will step to it if they meet in the playoffs but they are only playing the home and away so might not have been a matchup worth getting concussed for.

Nate Schmidt had a chance to stop that. He backed out of the way and waved his stick at it instead of trying to block it.
