Vitek with the vintage puck drop out of his glove goal against.

I hope not, we don’t need the Caps being an undead zombie haunting us, cause you know if they do make the playoffs they’ll crap out against anyone that’s not us in the Metro and be a total PITA if we are playing them.

I think they're legit good this year man, they're not the slow team in previous years

Just as a brief check, I downloaded the data for NJDs games (data back to 08-09)

Highest xGoals total we gave up was 6.074 in this game vs Philly Game

Highest xGoals total we generated was 6.472 in this game 5 days later lmao Game

I only found 11 games 10 games* starting from 2007-08, on Natural Stat Trick where a teams previously got up to 7 xGoals but I couldn’t find any that got to 8.

*I did find 11 but one of them didn’t make sense statwise, so I checked it against Evolving Hockey, and NST f***ed up. *Shrug*

If it was easier to search on EH, I would do it there but I would do there but I would have to do by team for each season and even I’m not insane enough to waste my time doing that. (Close but no.)

Caps are definitely a good team (thus far). They totally dismantled the NYR last night. Score was a lot closer than it should have been for part of it. The shots were so lopsided and the possession in the rags zone so lopsided I was surprised the rangers had even 10 shots.

Maybe it's an outlier game, but caps looked really good.

 

[ZachaFlockaFlame]

Zibanejad is already looking like a calamity of a contract

Dostal may be as good as Shesterkin, considering John Gibson is elite and doesn’t even have nearly those kinds of numbers behind the same Ducks team!

Dostal is doing a bit of his prime Schneider impression, the Ducks are getting caved nightly but he's saving them a ton (no pun intended, lol). I'm glad we got Reimer the other night

Getting 3 of 4 pts from the Caps when they are off to a great start is good

 

[TheUnseenHand]

the Caps are good. Hopefully we can start counting that as a "win vs a good team"...........

Oh that definitely was. It was our best win by a mile. Even when the caps are bad they freaking own us. I'd argue that was our only win against a good team though.

 

[NjDevsRR]

I'd argue that was our only win against a good team though.

Until tonight

I think they are working hard in a good system but they also have a lot of guys overachieving right now to my eyes. When they start having injuries and the schedule isn’t so kind I am not seeing them keeping up this points pace even if they are better than anyone expected.

 

[Guttersniped]

These are the injuries/absences the Avs are dealing with now:


It was pretty ugly when Wood & Colton had to play big minutes in the top 6 with Nichushkin, Lehkonen & Drouin out, but the forwards with them out as well is really something:




1st line: Kiviranta is a defensive 4th liner.

2nd line: Ivan Ivan 22 year old rookie who was a undrafted FA signing out of the QMJHL.

3rd: Kylington is a 27 year old defenseman with ~200 NHL GP lol.
Kelly is a 25 year old undrafted 4th line center.
Kovalenko is a 25 year old rookie (COL 2018 6th Rd pick out of the KHL).

4th: 33 year old Wagner has mostly played in the AHL since 2020-21.
Tynan is a 32 year old AHL star who’s last brief call up was in 2021-22.
Stienburg is a 24 year old rookie (COL 2019 3rd Rd pick)

Boston might be in trouble.

Please, please, please. Want to watch the rat bastard wind his career down on a shitwagon.

I don’t think Zacha is going to be out the league that quickly

That was going to be my line. Thanks for getting that out there.

I like Zacha. He’s essentially the same age as my oldest son. Born within a couple of weeks. The joke just wrote itself there.

Since we're being nostalgic in the other thread, kind of reminds me of Kovy dropping Schenn.

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

We allowed to call the caps win a good win yet?

Or nah

 

[Forge]

Five goals in 8 shots is some nasty work by the capitals lol

 

[Bleedred]

Even more impressive that it's against the Blue Jackets, who came into today over NHL.500!
