Canes/NJ and Caps/Habs series running parallel so far. Both favorites up 3-1 heading home for G5.
I wasn't sitting down to begin with.

I’ve always thought what a team would do against a team with Brendan Witt and Tom Wilson on it.

I'd say he pitched in and more that third period! Signature performance.
I promised to name my next dog Wilson back in 2018 and never did get another one

This is how you build character - by overcoming adversity and getting those tough wins on the road. Just great stuff from our Caps today.

Canes may have lost Andersen today.

Strome playing like a legitimate 1C wasn't on my bingo card, but I'm here for it. Need more from Dubois besides zone entries and off-puck body positioning. More from Wilson beyond huge hits would help too, but he got his money's worth tonight.
Beauvillier with his lowest TOI of the series so far. Gotta assume it'll be 8-17-21 up top on Wednesday. Would not at all be surprised if it's Leonard coming out for the Big Professional.
Alexeyev - TVR looked better, but Alexeyev at under 10 minutes of TOI is a worry. Really hope they close it out in 5 to avoid Carlson/Chychrun/Roy playing any more than they need to.
God bless Logan Thompson's leg.

Yeah this is up there with the Columbus game. The hit then dagger goals. LT is a boss coming back to play too.
TVR was a solid addition to this team. Amazing how long it's been since he started in the NHL too seems like yesterday with Chicago.

Wondering if the guys that made card board cut outs of Wilson left them at the seats or took them home. CMM has been so good in this series

but but he cost us a 2nd!
Don't love AA getting ~9 minutes, but I also get that road match-ups are hard.
Having said that, what a fantastic road hockey game. The caps did not play their best (see: PP & PK), but they stuck to their plan, played physical, managed the puck very well, and actually finished their f%&(ing chances for a change.
Dewey was exceptional. I also spotted Beauvillier out late with Dowd/Dewey a few times. Wonder if that's a preview of game 5 with Protas back on the top line? A man can dream.

AA may have saved the game on that 3-1. We would have be F'ed if they scored.

Wilson put a Canadien in concussion protocol?
