Miller is obviously hurting.

 

[Quinning]

Just show that clip to any Avs fans claiming Makar is better than Hughes.

 

[VanillaCoke]

Jt out for the 2nd

No he's back in the game

 

[wonton15]

I understand Heinen is like pretty good at doing the little things but man he’s a soft one

 

[LemonSauceD]

looks like Sandin ordered a Kale smoothie for the next week.

 

[ahmon]

I hoped Juulsen was aiming for the capital face

 

[Canucks LB]

That was an amazing backCheck by Quinn, Hughes

 

[Canucks LB]

I’m really liking what the Washington Capitals are doing right now, really physical team, might be a really interesting team to watch in the playoffs this year.

They look way better than I thought

 

[Peen]

I understand Heinen is like pretty good at doing the little things but man he’s a soft one

they were only holding him because joshua was struggling is my theory

bet you he’s gone if the team was fully healthy. guy’s the 10th forward. him and desharnais were the obvious expendable guys w non zero salaries

Heinen and a pick for Zucker

 

[Regress2TheMeme]

f*** yes! Garland!!

 

[Lawzy]

Oddly dominant second period.

 

[God]

Still OTL champs.

 

[wonton15]

Look how they massacred my HF Boards (I know it’s temporary)

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Jesus. Thought the Leafs made a trade or something.

 

[EpochLink]

Look at this board, it needs to be modified still

 

[Bgav]

Did we actually lose if HF boards went down?

 

[ChilliBilly]

nice to have this back up and working. Well they out played a very good team last night. I gather both teams have health issues.

Did we actually lose if HF boards went down?

no comments for about 18 hours, pretty sure the answer is obvious.

 

[Regress2TheMeme]

I was impressed with the effort and emotion the team showed last night when the Caps tried to play like assholes. Dubois scoring the OT winner was salt in the wound, lol. Let's pick up Rempe for our next game against the Caps in a couple weeks.

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Part of the OTLs have to be mental now.

 

[CalderSchmalder]

This new site layout looks interesting, not sure if I like it yet or not though.

I'm surprised this team is still in a playoff spot despite being 2-3-5 in our last 10 games.

First, f*** this new forum format.

Second, pretty shocking Wilson doesn’t somehow get an extra penalty for hitting Garland without the puck behind the net. And it was 100% intentional because he was mad at Garland and was trying to get him back.

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

That was an infuriating game to watch.

Dubois pretty much cheap shot Hughes.

Then at the end of the game. Tom Wilson was given a total pass to goon it up. He takes out Garland who is nowhere near the puck while the refs are looking at that f***ing direction. No call. In the leadup to that, Wilson basically shoved Garland after a whistle to which no one really took issue with. Myers made a half-assed attempt to act tough but wussed out. It was Juulsen that at the end decided to try and take action.

The officiating to this day is still total garbage. Refs one night will make all sorts of soft calls and then other nights permit 90's level goonery.

It's just a reoccurring story for this franchise. The team gets thugged and beat down physically, refs pile on and the other team gets rewarded with zero comeuppance.

It's sad to say but the only way forward for this team is to draft a generational player like McDavid or Matthews who is adored by the league and media.

Just adds to the confusing ref discord. Depends how they feel at the time

 

[tantalum]

It's hard to criticize the team last night except for the weird decision in OT for three guys to cover the one man...

They played hard and in the end outplayed a good team. There was far more positive that game than negative. That's a game if they play every night they will have no issues maintaining a playoff spot. It's just that's a big if right now.
