Post-Game Talk: Caps @ The Powerhouse - 12:30 EST

[Ori]

phew thanks Canada let Caps get 2 points.

 

[Loff]

Nice try, George. lel

 

[haohmaru]

Can’t say I’ve ever seen that before. Wow.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Surely if anything it should be a wash and Ovi shoots again... not just an awarded goal...?

That’s the rule though, goalie throws his stick on a shootout attempt it’s an auto goal.

 

[Ola]

Goalies are experts at this because they always do it in practice all the time...

 

[mike14]

Weak attempt by Chytil. He just tried to guide the puck into the net.
The release by both Backstrom and Oshie on their wristeres was insane

 

[CasusBelli]

Great performance by G. But what the hell was that stick throw?

[Kokoschka]

next time wire these refs to toronto from the start, perhaps that helps with those bad calls.

 

[Crease]

Someone in Toronto literally spit out his coffee after the ref called no goal.

 

[MyLoveIsBlue]

Adios Rongo amigos

 

[Jaromir Jagr]

That's ridiculous. Then goalies would throw their sticks anytime they got beat. It's a good rule and they made the right call.

Still, that was awesome by G-Money.

He was nervous and only 19.

He sat out a game as well, but for what I saw he played well in this game.

 

[bl02]

Oh well I'm sad we don't help the Islanders out

 

[WesMcCauley]

Can this be reviewed?

Its an automatic goal.
"The goalkeeper may attempt to stop the shot in any manner except by throwing his stick or any object, or by deliberately dislodging the goal, in which case a goal shall be awarded".

 

[Embryo]

KEEP YOUR HEADS UP, KIDS!! That was a great exciting game, Georgiev looked awesome, I am really happy with him, I am not mad about losing this game going up against TJ Oshie, Backstrom and Ovechkin in a shootout.

Open 5 hole as well if he's quicker

 

[will1066]

Buch is turning his game around. That's a positive

 

[Kovalev27]

Well Georgie totally bit on the shot up high was completely beaten had no other option but that should have been an easy call for the refs.

Guys battled hard again can’t ask for much more

 

[wafflepadsave]

No they aren't.

They are not weak enough!

The move was ok. He needed to start it earlier. Ran out of real estate

 

[RangerBlues]

12 OT points this season

I know it's an automatic goal if the goalie does that but it seemed the call on the ice was no goal originally. Then Toronto buzzed down. I realize he did toss it and it should have been a goal.

 

[bl02]

Yeah not making a big deal out of that. Not like he took a weak wrist shot into Holtby's logo from far out

 

[Machinehead]

Meh, I don't care about the standings this year so that goes down as a tie for me.

f*** ties tho.
