GDT: caPs vs caTs, 3-22

[Firsov99]

Ovie decided to pivot to the assist record

1700 points would be a nice milestone.

 

[aonb]

this is the day we score at least 10 goals. save this post and quote me later on

 

[TRASHCAT]

hey i brought up steve eminger last game

 

[Calicaps]

Much better

 

[stephenball]

Sandin’s skating has gotten so much better

It has, other than being a little undersized it was his biggest flaw, it’s just another example of the Caps seeing a player whose skating they can improve.

 

[895]

I trust LT to lock in

 

[Block]

They could stand to stop playing the Chapelle Roan song before faceoffs, it's hot garbage.

 

[Block]

Yeah, it hits 13's stick, how did all 4 officials miss it?

 

[Mr Nogatco]

Big fan of the Beauvillier trade

 

[Mr Nogatco]

15 seconds in the period up 3 and Sandin is trying to add to his highlight reel Thought they had coached that out of him

 

[TRASHCAT]

LT def showed up in the second

 

[Killakirillthethrill]

Impressive, guy is severely underrated!

I've been seeing this argument lately on the main boards that the Caps' playoff chances aren't strong because "Strome-Dubois doesn't look like winning center depth" or something like that, so I thought about it for a minute...

and then I realized they're both third overall picks, so it's not even like there's zero pedigree or reason to trust the development there and it's just HF doing that "everything will be this way forever" thing with players

 

[Block]

Fast moving period. Other than a couple of bad decisions on the puck from Chychrun they've really tightened up since the start of the second on D.

 

[Praetorian Caps]

Loving the score; the only way to top it off is an Ovie goal.

 

[HTFN]

watching defensemen deal with net-front Ovechkin and having one hell of a time at it is hilarious.

we all know he's a bull but the way they try shoving him around has this energy of "you could do this the whole time? were we lucky to not look like children?"

 

[Empty Goal Net]

Overall, a very solid performance. A few weak points in period one, but that can be excused considering they didn't have problems putting the puck in the net.

 

[Praetorian Caps]

Well at least The Caps got the season sweep over The Panthers.

 

[Ridley Simon]

That might come close to (NOT yet, but close) locking up #1 EC seed.

 

[ovikovy817]

WTH of a game I just watched. Wonderful.

 

[Lou Sassole]

McMichael either blow drys his hair immediately after games, or he just doesn't sweat.

 

[twabby]

My game puck goes to Rasmus Sandin for a stout defensive effort including a team high 19:54 at 5v5, a nifty assist, and a well-earned +4 rating.

HMs go to PLD, CMM, Tom Wilson, and John Carlson.

 

[notDkristich]

i got espn plus'ed again. wut i miss?

 

[HTFN]

McMichael either blow drys his hair immediately after games, or he just doesn't sweat.

his hair rejects the concept and refuses to follow protocol

 

[Fred22406Capsfan]

Pro should've shot there towards the end, rather than trying to pass. I get it, but get the goal and seal it.
