Post-Game Talk: Washington Capitals vs Phil McKrakens - 9pm EST

[Capsman]

Orlov must be mentally tired. Not sure what he was thinking.

 

[Hivemind]

D pairs are all shuffled up with the 7 man rotation

 

[Baszie]

I get so sick and tired watching that 4th line when we need goals

 

[troyerlaw]

Seems like the Cap's have a horrible track record with expansion teams in their first year too. They lost to Nashville, had issues with Thrashers, and Vegas owned us in the regular season their first year. I can't remember how SJ, TB, FlA, or the others did. I used to remember all that junk.

Traveled with my son from LA to Vegas for that first regular season game against VGK. We were down 3-0, like, instantly

 

[mad4comp]

And VV ices the puck so we can get hemmed in our zone for the next 10 mins.. well done boss.

 

[TheLegendOfPatPeake]

Ovie scored so technically we already won.

 

[troyerlaw]

PP time

 

[twabby]

Upcoming PP

 

[Capsman]

“Huge” Locker? Lol.

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

88 mph wrist shot... Jesus there's guys in the NHL that can barely top that speed with their slappers.

 

[troyerlaw]

If you use Protas on PP, then plant him in front. Otherwise CMM please

 

[GoCaps2004]

Perfect, a powerplay to lose any iota of momentum we had

 

[troyerlaw]

Nice pass from protas to willy

 

[maacoshark]

That was a bit of a weak call.

 

[troyerlaw]

8 got some looks

 

[Capsman]

I had no doubt it would be a waste of 2 minutes.

 

[TRASHCAT]

was a good pp

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

Not too bad of a PP. Carlson's got to shoot a bit more though

 

[maacoshark]

D pairs are all shuffled up with the 7 man rotation

I don't like 7 dmen in the lineup. It they have to go with 7 then I'd rather one of those dmen play the wing. Leave the D pairings alone

 

[Capsman]

was a good pp

Seems to be the best we can hope for these days. PP shot participation trophy.

 

[troyerlaw]

And a good look for Spronger too

 

[troyerlaw]

That Sprong release though

 

[Capsman]

Gonna need to score on a deflection is my guess.

 

[HTFN]

Sprong looked like young Ovechkin on that shift.

 

[troyerlaw]

Quality stop by Grubi
