Game 78 - Get some and lock up the East

[SherVaughn30]

Love Joe B but Walton is not bad.

I like Walton better than Joe B, but that is just my opinion. Walton to me has a better, stronger voice than Joe B and has more of a powering excitement when the Caps score goals, make a big hit or the goalie makes a big save.

 

[IafrateOvie34]

Finally a PP. Hopefully they do more than just feed Ovy the puck.

 

[Dr John Carlson]

That Buffalo game is gonna need a 30 for 30 documentary some day. Totally broke the team.

 

[SecretaryofDefense5]

Oh, no it's definitely not the least of their issues. He's directly responsible for the first goal along with Lindgren, completely lost his man, and he's getting eaten up by the forecheck and is a big part of them getting trapped in their own end.

This team has been getting destroyed lately with Chych even in. It doesn’t matter is my point.

 

[wickedwitch]

I was told they didn’t need to make any more upgrades because of the vibes?

The 52 extension another great feather in Chris’ cap!

If he's willing to bury 52 in Hershey over Carbery's wishes, it's a perfectly fine extension.

 

[Carlzner]

They just aren't real contenders unfortunately.

A really fun season nonetheless, but I truly don't see them doing much damage in the playoffs.

 

[wickedwitch]

I'd try throwing 72-24-9 out there, just to see how the Canes respond to a line with speed. And also because nothing else is working.

 

[WcRoenick97]

PLD BABY!

 

[Block]

Carlson, that should've been a dump back into the corner, not a forced pass to a covered man.

 

[IafrateOvie34]

Nice goal PLD. Just what the team needed.

 

[RedRocking]

Great pass by Mangi

 

[Ridley Simon]

Oh dear, this thread

 

[Block]

Oh nice shot by PLD. One goal game, start skating guys.

 

[Praetorian Caps]

Dubois, baby!!!!!!

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

They look like frauds I won’t lie, and Carolina has lost 3 in a row to bad teams

Two teams that have had nothing to play for for weeks, and one of them playing with one of the most valid “distraction” excuses in NHL history that will take a week or two to come down from the high of.

Meaningless games that only serve to heighten emotions ahead of a potential round 2 matchup.

 

[WcRoenick97]

The one real positive is that the PP seems to be rounding into form the last couple of weeks during this slump. We're gonna need an effective one. And that was the main weakness just a few weeks ago.

 

[Nice]

Mangi has looked good, set up Eller earlier too

 

[SecretaryofDefense5]

A goal. Yay.

 

[IafrateOvie34]

Dang the officiating didn't call that?

 

[stephenball]

How did they not call that hold haha

 

[g00n]

A goal. Yay.

"Oh, they won the Cup. Just look at those smudges. Meh."

 

[Neil Racki]

Nice to see the puck in the back of the net

Mango and PLD w nice touches

 

[Block]

How did they not call that hold haha

Presumably if the Caps hadn't just scored it'd be a call.

 

[Pigskin]

power play looked terrible until it wasn't

 

[RandyHolt]

Willy killed that guy.

I love that they called a penalty on the disfigured schlub. Crime it turned into a goal against... at 714 at least
