Post-Game Talk: Capitals vs Bruins again

[SherVaughn30]

What I like about the Caps, they are having a better puck possession in this game then the previous preseason games.

 

[AZ Caps Fan]

I don't think he sucks. He just needs to drive the net and take some shots instead of always looking to pass the puck.

If he goes to the net, his size will create havoc for opposing d-men.

Exactly. He doesn't seem to be fully engaged.

Can't watch the Caps or Dodgers so hanging out with everyone's game take, lol.

This is what a lot of Red Wing fans were warning us about too. Hope that changes.

Wonders of an NHL level roster on the ice lol.

Powerplay still absolutely dreadful

 

[SherVaughn30]

Powerplay still absolutely dreadful

Because they are not moving in their skates and making quick sharp passes.

Powerplay still absolutely dreadful

PP2 looks absolutely lost on each of their shifts. Orlov being the left circle gunner as a left shot also ruined the one chance they generated. Couldn’t one time it across his body.

Serious question for those watching on NHLN: did Jack Edwards have a stroke or some other neuro issue? He sounds very slow and slurry.
ETA: Like a hockey Harry Caray, but 3 or 4 decades younger.

Both of their broadcasters have had a fair bit of word salad tonight.

Good shift for him a moment ago. A hit too! Would love for him to be more physical.

I hope for a replay of Wilson's hit

I was wondering the same. Not sure.

VV looks sharp.

 

[The Instigator]

Some good stick-to-itivness by Kempny that last shift.

VV looks sharp.

Sharp isn’t the word I’d use. He looks stronger, for sure. Made a couple big pad saves throwing out his legs. But he’s having some issue with puck tracking, even on a couple of the saves he’s made he hasn’t been sure where the puck is. And obviously the incident that led to Boston’s 2nd goal. By no means am I saying he’s been bad tonight, but he’s definitely still getting into rhythm.

He looks good to me tonight. And i always appreciate the guys who are going as hard they can. Good give—f*** level.
Dowd, TVR look good too IMO. And Orlov, always.

In the first two periods, I agree.

 

[Carlzner]

Should be 5 on 3

 

[Hivemind]

Jensen has been really active in the offensive zone tonight.

Should be 5 on 3

Not holding my breath. Refs almost never do it, even when blatantly obvious

 

[McVechkin]

I hope for a replay of Wilson's hit

Missed it. Good clean hit? Or controversial?

 

[pman25]

Pretty sure they took another penalty on Hagelin at the end… 4th line looked strong there!

Skating beautifully, playing with confidence

Osh babe!!!!

I love Osh!
