GDT: caps canes

Also, the more I watch the game, it feels like the whole damn organization, not just the team, is so invested in Ovi breaking the record that it is impacting the team's overall game.

Ovi's celly was very muted last night, obviously because we were getting our ass kicked. But the rest of the team was ecstatic.

It is what it is. They need this record broken asap so they can start playing hockey.
 
I have no concerns about the teams recent losses. Its all about Ovi and everyone knows it.

Happy to see some old school sore losers make their annual appearance. That punk #22 that pushed Willy, was risking his career. EDIT #22 Stanky is 5'8 165 lol



The Canes may want to call up Oglethorpe next week.

Oglethorpe has had a very trying rookie season, with the litigation, the notoriety, his subsequent deportation to Canada and that country's refusal to accept him, well, I guess that's more than most 21-year-olds can handle

Chatfield is a coward. Big Mac or Willy should feed him his own teeth next game.
Doesn’t look like he has many left to offer lol. Side note the Wilson hate will always be there right, but gd I’m so glad that dude is on our team. A 30 goal scoring maniac, it’s hard for people to admit how much he’s cleaned up his game while still having to keep your head on a swivel. The crying about him just makes me smile

I think way too much is being made of this. Before this mini four-game slump they’d won eight or nine of their previous ten games and looked like a buzzsaw.

What’s far more likely is they have locked up the number one spot in the east and they’re getting every team’s best shot every night, especially from those still fighting for a playoff spot or playoff positioning (which are most teams in the East). That, and over the course of 82 games you’re going to have stretches where things don’t go your way.
 
Looks like no supplemental disciple. Next Thursday just because must watch TV

Good... Chatfield is a bottom-pair nothing player. Not really a guy Canes would miss if suspended. Also we play them next week so only good thing he's playing there. Extra juice for Caps.

Since we will certainly play against them in the 2nd round it's a good thing for us the "nastiness" because on the speed side they are much quicker than us at least on what we saw yesterday.

I think it’s both. The time available to get the record is tightening. The hype around it has become deafening. And everything you say is also true. Getting the record done is a priority because of the timing and because everyone on earth wants it done, including the team. I’m not worried about them finding their game, but getting 895 taken care of will absolutely help.
 
That's some f'ed up sh*t if there is no discipline for Chatfield.

We will see them down in Capital One Arena very soon. Both teams are already solidly in place, so playoff seeding means Jack Sh*t. Screw the score.

Now it's just them and us, buddy.
 
Yeah, I don’t want a clown show, I think he should have to answer and if he has any guts he will. I want the Caps to play the hard physical game we know they are capable of and I want 2 points. And why not, I want Ovechkin to get the record that game, that would be fun.

I’m right now in the camp that of the guys want to get back at the canes, play better and don’t get disrespected all over the ice. Glad they were pissed, take that and play good hard hockey. I don’t need to see this team goon it up when we are trying to lock up the one seed
We can do both. The bottom line is we didn't move our feet, which means we were chasing the game. Really bad to do that against Carolina. When we move our feet, we're usually finishing our checks too, which is us at our best. We can do that, and Wilson/Duhaime/McIlrath can punch a few people in their faces as well. The 2 things aren't mutually exclusive.

He doesn’t have much to lose. (Hi Folks, noob here, LFG!)
