GDT: ECQF: Game 1 - Washington Capitals vs Montreal Canadiens, 7pm ET

[BMOK33]

I'm surprised how nasty this game is between 2 teams who hardly ever face each other

 

[PattyLafontaine]

1-0 Ovechkins

 

[Shonky]

Bold move by the Habs to muck it up with a bully team like the Caps... see if it does them any good

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

Some scrums are 4v4 and others 5v4, absolutely an NHL typical standard to set.

Rather they allow it all....

 

[End of Line]

So are we just going to give penalties out anytime there’s a scrum? If so f***ing lame.

 

[M2Beezy]

Thompson is dialed in. Ya love to see it

 

[The Gr8 Dane]

huuuuge save

 

[kwichang]

Suzuki! That was the chance right there!!

 

[BMOK33]

You have to make the pass there, you don't have a good enough shot to score from there bro

 

[Cool Hand Puke]

Caps score on a gifted powerplay

It’s not their fault Montreal whiffed on their gift

 

[Realgud]

Thompson has been really really good

 

[PanniniClaus]

Stays big and square..

 

[CactusCap]

I cannot believe he only has 29 career playoff goals, has to have played in over 100 games

Almost half of them against Tortarella will do that to offensive output.

 

[Michoulicious]

Roy sucks lol

 

[Straight Fire]

That Suzuki shot was labeled, really nice arm save by Thompson

 

[notbias]

Suzuki! That was the chance right there!!

Anti-clutch

 

[Bouboumaster]

Terrible first for Montréal

 

[Son of Nogatco]

4 on 4 not good for the caps

 

[Emerica]

thank you Gary Galley for reminding us that that was a blocker save

 

[Carlzner]

Lane Hutson is terrified of Tom Wilson.

 

[PROUD PAPA]

Habs D hearing Wilson’s footsteps.

 

[Ghost of Murph]

So are we just going to give penalties out anytime there’s a scrum? If so f***ing lame.

NHL has current seeding system to create rivalries. Then when rivalries get heated NHL doesn't want any part of it. Mixed message.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Should have been a penalty accidental or not.

Yes on Carlson for interference.

 

[Sadekuuro]

I cannot believe he only has 29 career playoff goals, has to have played in over 100 games

Those are just the power play goals. He has 72(?) total.

I actually think Montreal had a decent first period on the road. Rough first 4-6 mins for sure.
