GDT: GM:20 Devvies @ Cappies 7:08pm EST

[SecretaryofDefense5]

weird period. Liked our game, just seem like we're a little off on the final pass

Love Dowd and Wilson but they just consistently take horrible penalties

It just feels like they aren’t creating a lot.

 

[Langway]

Their forechecking has faded a bit...the fourth line in particular in terms of consistency. Dillon kind of set the tone with his step-up on Protas and they didn't really answer with anything.

They've gotten a bit fat on transition but need to start wearing teams down physically and getting in on the forecheck with more attitude. Their forechecking technique and stickwork is fine. At times they're turning pucks over but they hardly blow anyone up these days (looking at you, Wilson).

 

[PlushMinus]

This game is really really boring

 

[SecretaryofDefense5]

WTF is Carlson waving his stick? Nice deflection by him to score the goal for the Devils.

 

[BallardEra]

Looks like Ovie was the glue guy.

 

[Neil Racki]

Don’t see rights land that clean

#22 is growing on me

 

[SecretaryofDefense5]

I haven’t noticed Miro. Need him to get shots off.

 

[qc14]

Relying on the points too much in-zone and not getting enough looks in the middle

Only really had that mangiapane to eller look in the first

 

[Liam Smith]

Need more from Mange

 

[troyerlaw]

Devils got away with the hold along the boards

 

[SecretaryofDefense5]

Need more from Mange

Need more from everyone. Strome and company are invisible. McMichael has been non existent. Devils have owned the puck.

There just doesn’t seem to be much emotion in their game right now.

 

[wickedwitch]

So the Caps aren't playing well but this reffing is completely one way. They've missed multiple calls on the Devils.

 

[Praetorian Caps]

Whoooo boy, this is starting to ugly?

 

[RedRocking]

Can anyone win a FO on the PK?

 

[lotty83]

Caps look totally different without 8. Very odd.

 

[SecretaryofDefense5]

I get Ovi is out but this is not gonna cut it. Brain dead penalties shouldn’t happen.

I’m going to watch some Lenny.

 

[Langway]

Fehervary not blocking anything tonight.

Basically just getting outworked at this point.

 

[lotty83]

We are absolute dog s**** offensively tonight

 

[SherVaughn30]

Sh*t officiating! No call Haula hooking CMM and another Devil grabbing the stick of Miro! This is just total BS!

 

[Blades Ov Steel]

You can't replace Ovie but my god these guys are trying to reinvent the wheel on how they've been playing all season.

 

[NoVaCapsFan]

This team scored 8:goals,vs STL 2 weeks ago.: Wish we coulda put some of those in the bank.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Missing a 39 yr old……top-6 needs to step the F up…..

 

[SecretaryofDefense5]

Missing a 39 yr old……top-6 needs to step the F up…..

I echo this.

 

[qc14]

more of the first period. just can't get anything off the rush at all. Still definitely in this, and I don't think they've been as bad as the doom and gloom here

 

[lotty83]

Just not a lot of confidence presently with this team. Not moving the puck or creating or finding time/space at all
