GDT: Game 28: Columbus at Washington | 12/11 7PM EST

[EspenK]

Lucky to be tied and now 1:58 of pp to start the 2nd.

 

[major major]

Anyone else notice that Foligno's release is a lot quicker this year? Few of his goals are from distance, but that goal, and his shootout post were both wicked shots, and I never saw that in years of his play prior to this one.

There are a few players around the league with faster releases this year, and I've heard talk that its new sticks. I'm wondering if that applies to Foligno.

 

[Socks]

So, um, I forgot we were on a pp.

 

[NotWendell]

Is Atkinson playing tonight?

 

[DJA]

Is Atkinson playing tonight?

the box score says he is - my eyes say no

 

[major major]

Is Atkinson playing tonight?

Yes, doing a lot of the powerplay entries.

 

[DJA]

Calvert is not good.

 

[NotWendell]

Calvert is not good.

Skille is having a rough night too (so far)

 

[major major]

Calvert is not good.

(so far this season).

 

[NotWendell]

This looks like the first game of the season. So sloppy on both sides.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Flop of the year

 

[The Jones Zone]

I hope a caps fan wizzes right in Wiz's face

Idiot play

 

[Socks]

That was a nice dramatic fall to the ice.

 

[The Jones Zone]

Flop of the year

Flop????????


a 2 hander straight to the chest as hard as Wiz could

whatever

 

[EspenK]

I think Wiz broke his stick. Definitely looked like a penalty to me.

 

[Socks]

Flop????????


a 2 hander straight to the chest as hard as Wiz could

whatever

Because that's never happened before. Was a big flop.

Stupid penalties? Absolutely. But still a total dive.

I'm not debating if it's a dumb play, but Wilson dove backward like he was at the local swimming pool high dive.

 

[Halfboard]

Wiz...........not smart, putting your team in a bad spot. Dumb. Undisciplined. Bad.

 

[The Jones Zone]

Because that's never happened before. Was a big flop.

Stupid penalties? Absolutely. But still a total dive.

ok I guess he just had a broken stick before he hit him

 

[MFRONE]

Not seeing 2 penalties there at all

 

[Socks]

ok I guess he just had a broken stick before he hit him

I tell you what. I'm able to mea culpa. I need to see the hit again. But I can say I'm wrong if I'm wrong. If he caught the guy in the throat and not the chest like I initially thought then that's bad and he should feel shame.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Huge kill

 

[distinctkickgmotion]

10 shots

 

[NotWendell]

Agree to disagree. Was a dive. AND Wiz was stupid.

I'd say it was a cross-check, an embellishment AND a stupid penalty.

 

[EspenK]
