Post-Game Talk: G13: Washington @ Pittsburgh... Valentine’s Day/Lucky 13/Sunday Funday Edition | 2/14 3:00p ET NBC

Wilson just had two chances in the crease but Jarry made two saves. Caps xG for the game is 2.1. Pens are at 1.69. I’m not saying the defense has been great, but when your goalie can’t make a save, it makes the defense seem a lot worse than it actually is.

And the same applies the other way. When you're giving up numerous quality chances within 5 feet of the net, it makes your goaltending seem worse than it actually is.

We look good so fat i feel a tie coming

 

[Hivemind]

Guys like Sheary and Panik have to start converting on these chances they're getting.

 

[Hivemind]

Carlson with a pass to ???

 

[Hivemind]

How was that not a trip on Eller?

The day Panik scores an actual goal that doesnt just bounce in from his ass, its going to be a good day. Its propably not today.

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Dowd back out. No torn ACL lol

 

[Corby78]

I hate it every time VV holds it. It means a defense faceoff loss is coming up

 

[Corby78]

Dowd back out. No torn ACL lol

I’ll know he is ok when he takes an Ozone penalty

He didn't miss a shift in the 2nd period.

 

[SpinningEdge]

Caps a little sloppy with the puck.

A week off will do that.

Yeah, but that's not really his problem or responsibility. It's better than throwing it back out there and getting scored on immediately.

 

[AlexBrovechkin8]

Great push to start but need a goal to come with it.

 

[Corby78]

We have been the better team this period

 

[Melkor]

A lot of movement all over the ice and nothing to show for it. Not even a good shot on goal. Some perimeter bullshit. Go to the damn net you fools!

 

[Roshi]

Ovie has been quite a playmaker this season. Could easily have 0+3 today too, if the rest of the guys just could finish.

 

[Jarias2311]

Damnit Orlov shoot the puck faster

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

good Forechecking just need to pot one

 

[GoCaps2004]

VV with a big save again. But holy shit can we shoot the puck

 

[Raikkonen]

Good shift by VV!

 

[Portable Mink]

what the actual F was that defensive transition.

 

[Capsman]

Shoot the F’ing pick boys. They seem to think that’s Patrick Roy in goal for Pitt.

 

[Roshi]

Did Eller just pull a ’Doughty’ on that 3on2? Skated care-free on the bench instead of chasing the Pens attack, led by Crosby..

 

[Melkor]

Sheary went Pejorative Slur mode there a bit. Half a sec quicker pass and Eller would have been all alone in front.
