DC and the wild Wild west

[SecretaryofDefense5]

Just not their night.

 

[SherVaughn30]

Wild are a good defensive team. It’s annoying, lol

That has more to do with when Gustavsson is in net for them.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

like theres a glass pane infront of the net

It’s like a 90s playoff game….down, can’t score…

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Lame….

 

[Fred22406Capsfan]

Ok, you guys that get the nuances better than me (all of you) - hot keeper, unfamiliarity w/MN, what? Shit outcome.

 

[mad4comp]

Yea forcing pucks to ovechkin doesn't seem like a winning strategy for either OV or the team. How about we try to at least be competitive on the PP for a few games before the playoffs instead of doing whatever this nonsense is?

 

[Dr John Carlson]

I thought they played fine.

 

[SecretaryofDefense5]

Not good enough. Special teams better improve or it will be a quick first round.

Wild won this game winning the special teams battle and goaltending.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Goalie outplayed ours….next up.

Disagree. Caps can get away with no PP goals in the 1st round, but we need some afterwards.

 

[Pigskin]

we played well, nothing to worry about here ... the Wild are a good team

No…….let’s not even test that theory…

 

[SherVaughn30]

I think this is actually a good thing losing this game. Caps have some things to work on, mainly the PP and not giving up goals at the very end of a period.

 

[WcRoenick97]

Wow, an all class move by GR8 for MAF! Too cool.

And that third period gave me flashbacks of the 2010 series vs Montreal. Get back home and rest up for the Sabres.

 

[Langway]

Seems right. Off night for the PLD line.

Top-6 no show there yikes….

Well when they Kaprizov and Eriksson Ek in their lineup. Gustavsson/a PP goal won this game for the Wild tonight.

 

[stephenball]

Missed the first two periods, I thought they looked good in the third, but the Wild did a great job doing what they had to do to win. Lots of guys are going to have puck shaped bruises tomorrow, but they got two points.

 

[SherVaughn30]

Lindgren needed to sweep his stick across(just too passive with his stick), even though it's in his right hand. A goalie even in that position, has to look back and read a possible pass out front.

Oops, I meant in Lindgren's left hand.

 

[SherVaughn30]

No…….let’s not even test that theory…

Might not even have a choice!

 

[Fred22406Capsfan]

One point out of four. Bounce the f back next time out.

 

[notDkristich]

Seems right. Off night for the PLD line.

eye test agrees 1000%

 

[Fred22406Capsfan]

Okay, who's doing gameday on Saturday? I did tonight (poorly) and they crapped the bed. Someone else step up and get us the positive mojo back

 

[PlushMinus]

I know there are still about 3 weeks until playoffs but I wonder if there is any plan to rest guys between now and then?
