Post-Game Talk: Capitals vs. Senators. 7:30pm EST. Canadian Tire Center,

[Capsman]

Not too bad a period. Like the speed with which we played. Good game to weed out the Ness’es.

 

[Corby78]

Yeah for Hunter Hockey....

 

[Langway]

We do look like a faster team this year...for what it’s worth.

Eller is maybe a bit faster. Vrana will be a regular. That's the extent of it from what I can tell. Carlson is just as slow as ever.

 

[aonb]

I know its been only 20 minutes of season, but looking at previous games I doubt Ovie will surprise us in positive way this season

 

[Portable Mink]

im numb

 

[malyk]

Pretty underwhelming, but it’s the first period of the first game.

 

[Hivemind]

Ovechkin getting to good parts of the ice, but can't generate shots

edit; rings the pipe right after I say that.

 

[RandyHolt]

I'm awake. Apparently Pelly hit Dion.

 

[Barry Amsterdam]

Vranas looking real good

 

[Hivemind]

Didn't truly appreciate how good Anderson was on Vrana's backhand until seeing the replay. Those were nice shots on opposite ends of the net and Anderson stopped both.

 

[Sam Spade]

Vrana keeps going to the net like that and he will be successful in this league.

For the record this was something I noted in his first Development Camp in 2013.

 

[Hivemind]

Good shift for DSP so far

 

[Hivemind]

Carlson's best hit of the game is on..... Backstrom

 

[bur and 666 others]

Carlson is drunk lol. Just hit Backstrom. Before when the team had possession in O zone, he lost puck with no pressure. Just casually tried to stop it and lost it.

 

[bur and 666 others]

Carlson's best hit of the game is on..... Backstrom

I'm all for young huys, but he's fast and is creating chances with his speed.

 

[twabby]

Ugh Carlson

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

Truly inspired play by Carly there. Wow.

 

[Dr John Carlson]

That's on Carlson for that lazy breakout pass turnover.

 

[bur and 666 others]

wow, Carlson, wow. this goal on him. gave away the puck in the middle zone

 

[Hivemind]

Orpik and Carlson out there again

 

[Demandedace]

Good ole Johnny Qualude

 

[Capsman]

Incredibly sloppy passing.

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

Would GMGM do Carlson for Schmidt straight up?

 

[Hivemind]

What's the worst thing that could happen if they just left Orlov/Niskanen on the ice for the entire 3rd period?

The defense is so bad tonight.
