GDT: Caps and Bolts @12:30PM EST

Big tough Perbix doesn’t like small CMM lightly finishing a check….

 

[Langway]

WTF did Strome smoke this morning?

Must have been whatever Carlson had.

Perbix been a donk all game. F him

 

[LesDiablesRouges]

A perfect time really for the Caps to ‘hit a wall’. They need a game changer, not depth piece. Someone that can turn L3 into a more dominant scoring line. 1st should absolutely be in play IMO.

 

[BallardEra]

Looks like an OT type of game.

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Late to the game. Looks like JC6 had one take back. Other then that I missed nothing lol

 

[SecretaryofDefense5]

Vasi seems to be on point but they also aren’t making his life too difficult

FFS

 

[SpinningEdge]

Okay the over cycling and low amount of shots isn’t working. It’s pretty when we score goals that way - but let’s get back to pucks on net and trying to play more aggressive. This isn’t working.

 

[Langway]

Imagine watching this team and thinking they need some generic ass dude.

[Ovechkins Wodka]

We suck again?

 

[tycoonheart]

They have struggled to consistently generate offense since November. I would say majority of the games they have won since then has been because of defense and goaltending.

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

The intensity on puck battles is something…Ovi and company putting little effort into winning pucks back.

Ovi just crushed McDonagh, the net and Vasilevskiy's water bottle driving to the goal LOL

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Parity sucks sometimes….defensive systems, cycling, snoozer.

One play in three periods. I guess that is a start. Low intensity all game until now.

 

[LesDiablesRouges]

Marchand and Freddy would move the needle. 1st, Lapi, 2/3, +. Similar to Dima and Hath trade to BOS two years ago. Go get it done.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

I’m a little surprised a 2 game bump was all we got out of the 4N break.

I don't see it that way... I see an issue with Tampa clogging the middle and turning it into a snoozefest. If the Caps can't generate speed, they're neutralized.

 

[Devil Dancer]

Wasted all those extra goals on PIT and EDM.

That would bring some fire to the lineup for sure….

In game adjustments are a thing. I also
don’t see guys competing hard to win pucks overall today. To each their own.

Then we’re an easy out in the playoffs if that’s simply the blueprint….

Ahhh can’t complain about any extra goals against the Penguins. They could beat them 20-0 and I would still want more.

 

[Holtbyisms]

You could tell in the first period we were getting shutout today.

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

These last 3 games we look like shit. Thankfully we built a huge lead and it dont matter much
