[aingefan]

I'll be heading to the game with my 13 year old daughter who's a big Caps fan.

This game is about bragging rights in our house.

GO LEAFS GO.

I'll check in during the game to update everyone on our bush league goalies....

Enjoy.
Great stuff.

Stone -hands over Robertson

I wondered about this. I also wondered if the leafs would get a power play.

Tavares breaks out of his slump and scores 2 tonight . I like the decision to start Mrazek, Soup needs a couple games off.

I would try Nik on a power play

I was afraid of this, Ilya Samsonov is starting tonight for the Capitals, he's going to shut us out, I can feel it. I hate it when these guys get shutouts, especially that Samsonov made the shutout look easy.

Time to break up Willy and JT and also get Robertson better opportunities. Put Nylander with players that can actually keep up and put Tavares with some players that can cycle the puck and get it to him in the slot (having a hard time with this one).


Bunting-Matthews-Marner
Robertson-Kerfoot-Nylander
Kase-Tavares-Simmonds
Engvall-Kampf-Mikheyev

simmonds over engvall and mikheyev i want to hurl

58 would never think that way Brotha

nor would anybody else in that room, and if they did they'd be headed to the desert in a big hurry and I don't mean the Yotes I mean the Gobi desert in the big empty.

Cmon man , I rely on Amigos like you for the positive reinforcement…
Screw him
He’s getting pulled !

[NinjaKick]

I guess he's been terrible. It would be Leaf like to make him look really good lol.

That said, no one is stopping our time line rn. I expect at least 2 goals tonight regardless. The question is, can our goaltending keep it under 3.

Random thought here
Can’t stand Kipper , he makes me want to punch him in the head again ….

 

[Sypher04]

I don’t see any reason to screw with the powerplay units. Just leave them alone like Keefe appears to be doing

...Again?

The Caps are secretly not that good. They had that scorching 14-3-5 start when Ovy just couldn't stop scoring, but they've been 14-14-4 since then and if they're not careful could even slip out of a playoffs spot if someone else gets hot.

That being said they're still dangerous and can beat us - but if we show up we should win....and then there's like a 6gm streak against weal teams that we should really take advantage of if we want to take 1st place.

Hopefully mrazek has his game on.

 

[SprDaVE]

I hope we get some saves tonight

Soup needs a lot more than a couple of days off. He needs help, and no one in this coaching staff seem capable

NHL network pre-game unanimously picks the Caps as winning tonight.

NHL network pre-game unanimously picks the Caps as winning tonight.

When you give up 5 goals in the span of 7 minutes the prior game, i would pick the opposition as well

 

[GardinerTheForward]

NHL network pre-game unanimously picks the Caps as winning tonight.

well thats going to be embarrassing for the pundits

 

[Carltons Cup]

I'm here at pre game warmup and saw this jersey.... wouldn't it be nice to have him now
