No Lafreniere meme because I missed it Wednesday and I'm superstitious.

Instead, please enjoy Baby Donnie.

I like our chances tonight. But let's face it, we will be hard pressed to think of sweeping the two game series. So if we lose tonight, have a bit of a let down, I'm sure we will bounce back next game. My optimism tonight doesn't stem from us blowing out Philly,... it comes from the reemergence of our leader.

Mika's game the other night wasn't a fluke. You don't score six points playing hurt or feeling sick. Quite the contrary, you are confident and raring to go. And that was obvious just minutes into the game, way before his record setting performance in the second period. There can be no doubt the Mika we knew last year has returned. And that can go a long way in helping our inconsistency.

He himself has admitted he is feeling it, the last couple of games. So if anyone thought he has turned the corner earlier, they were wrong. It's only very recently he feels like his old self.

His 7.5% shooting percentage is way below his average of 12%. Which means we can expect many more goals from a healthy Zibanejad the second half of the season. I would bank on it if he remains healthy. It's almost a sure thing with Kreids and Buch playing as well as they have.

Kakko is beginning to remind me of Marcel Hossa.

Absolutely elite along the boards. Great job at keeping the puck. Really tremendous play in all of that regard. Just not really able to get points up, though.

He has shown no ability to beat NHL goalies with his shot. Unless that changes, he will not live up to what we thought that he would be.

Wilson hat-trick — just out of pure spite.

Edit: nvm. Also: since when does Dillon play F? Dude it a pylon, no?

I may be the only non-Caps fan who doesn’t hate Wilson. He’s never seemed that dirty to me, he always seemed to be more of a case of someone who looks worse because of the impact of his hits due to his strength (like Kreider, Ovechkin) rather than the dirtiness of the hit itself
