Board pariahs Nicky, Oshie, and Larry come alive down the stretch

also, Mantha > Vrana

I wish we could somehow have both

One thing for sure the Cap's first home playoff game will be roaringly loud.

 

[filthyMitz]

You guys looked like the better team from minute 1, nice win and fun game to watch!

Nick had some slick passes. Just give him the faster forwards and he can play like a defenseman.

Playoff hockey Baby! NMU. Hope Wilson and JC74 are ok. But that is a lot of playoff games out. But NMU!

 

[Drakon]

Anyone have a replay of that filthy hit on Carlson? And is Horny going to get a talking to? That was like 7 crosschecks in the span of 5 seconds.

Ya. He’s got some glaring mobility issues.. which is just a testament of how skilled/smart he is that he is staying relevant in playoff hockey

 

[lotty83]

Great win for the boys! We have momentum. Let’s keep it and snag Game 2

 

[McVechkin]

VV got the job done! Thought he got lucky with some bad rebound control, but overall played well enough in the caps game plan to win the game.

 

[marcel snapshot]

Ya there were rebounds galore.
We best get used to it

Double OT in NYC

When did Bennett hit Carlson? I completely missed it

About 30 seconds left in the game. It's was at the very end. Looked like a head shot.

VV .938 sv%. Acceptable.

 

[twabby]

I hope Carlson just took himself off the ice and into the locker room knowing that the game was already decided. He’s been really good the past few months, and was good tonight.

 

[HeyMattyB]

COL is up 5-0 against NSH. After ONE PERIOD.

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

 

[McVechkin]

Thought Carlson played a very good game. His 1 on 1 play on barkovs push through move in front of caps net was a D play only a handful of Dmen in the league can make against such a big skillful forward

 

[Marshall]

The pressure on FLA just grew exponentially.

 

[RandyHolt]

Yep you folks were right on Willy LBI. Busy stat line for 1:31 including a goal a hit and 2 injuries.

 

[marcel snapshot]

Cats looked skittish. Lots of pretty skating and running around and cheap shit, but little in the way of cohesive, puck-possessive, forceful play. I mean they were up 2-1 at home in the 3rd period of a home
Playoff game against the lowest seed - and they played a totally discombobulated, frenetic 3rd period. It’s not winning hockey in the playoffs

 

[RandyHolt]

These preseasons are killing me
