GDT: Game 28. At Capitals 4pm

[DarrylshutzSydor]

Unassisted

 

[Lebanezer]

Nice shot.

 

[DarrylshutzSydor]

Thrun Wennberg and Ruutta got manhandled

 

[TheBeard]

It’s criminal Mackenzie isn’t even in consideration for the nets at the big 4

 

[StrawHatEklund]

Toffoli with the solo snipe and Blackwood has been great so far.

 

[mogambomoroo]

Blackwood is sooo good when he faces ton of shots, weird but great for us.

 

[TheBeard]

I really thought Liljgren was getting called there.

Caps dude certainly worked hard for it

 

[Timo Time]

I understand having forward support in our own zone when the puck is baseline. But too often all 3 forwards are below the faceoff circles and it just invites a high volume of point shots and redirection.

I thought it was Delandrea at first.....

Refs laid an egg that period on both the grund and celly calls, espcially the first that negated a breakaway. Still, not a bad period. Smith had a grade A look from the slot and sturm/dyl celar 2 on 1. Hell, even the first shift was strong.

The penatlies gave WSH an edge, but not by that much. Sharks also had some good puck movement.

This team is playing well.

p.s.: Gieorgiev laid another egg. Here's hoping Wedgewood follows suit. A few more games like this for blackwood and a few more eggs laid by COL goaltending, and those avs will no choice but to come o' knokin'. Grier can fleece 'em with all the leverage, patience, and chips. The avs season is slowly slipping due to the goalie issues. No way they can allow that to continue much longer.

 

[DarrylshutzSydor]

Kostin is showing his ability. Hopefully it results in goals......

yes, although he made a very weak play at the point that nearly led to a goal against. he has to be better on the wing defensively in beating opposition D and winning those point/board battles. its the details like those that keep him from moving up the lineup.

Yeah he should have changed, the bench was right there, frustrating

 

[mogambomoroo]

These penalties... Or these calls...

 

[JoeThorntonsRooster]

They are calling everything…

 

[Alaskanice]

This is ridiculous.

 

[Timo Time]

These refs are actually trash

 

[Tw1ster]

Sawwwwwwwft

 

[sampler]

horrific call... again....

 

[Alaskanice]

Another good PK

 

[Tw1ster]

I suppose our 30 second power play is the quota for the night?

 

[sampler]

jesus. the skill of celebrini to take that pass in his skates and get to his stick in stride for that chance. Elite.

 

[timorous me]

Drew actually loves Smith. Maybe he heard the complaints and realized he needs to not be so tough on him on broadcasts. (I actually noticed this on Saturday, too--just not the outright proclamation of affection for Kibble.)

 

[hohosaregood]

Ferraro really needs to work on his skating. Just not enough burst
