AUSTON MATTHEWS: 0 GOAL IN 10 CAREER ROUND 2 PLAYOFFS GAMES

All of them against the Florida Panthers

 

[CrazyBob]

Jets arent dead yet.

 

[red devil]

Good news we are getting on game on Saturday night, can't have a 2nd round series without a a Saturday night game

 

[Stive Morgan]

Carbery on Slavin

I love how after every series, he's just like "man, every player on that other team was so good!" lol

Great sportsmanship.

 

[domiwroze]

Dallas getting a PP out of this whole thing is crazy work lmao

Still always happy to see Scheifele get popped.

 

[Canadienna]

Scheifele has the crazy eyes going again

 

[Non Player Canadiens]

Matthews-esque? regular season merchant?

 

[Adriatic]

Carolina exposing Washington as expected. Size is not everything, you need talent. Hopefully people can now calm down a bit with the whole size thing. You don't go draft a player just because of size.

We'll see how they react when they get slapped around if they play Florida.

 

[JianYang]

Jets could easily be up in this series.

 

[Miller Time]

Matthews-esque? regular season merchant?

All it takes is one cup...

 

[holy]

Are we talking about Nylander?

Nah I think Nostrils is *checks notes* Matthews.

 

[Quatre Vingt Treize]

Who would have thought that 7th rounder Morgan Barron would end up being a better player than 1st rounder Justin Barron...

I wanted to trade for Morgan last summer where he was Justin's brother. Thought it would help Justin. I would have fluked that one as he broke out for 27 goals.

Finding a center ready to break out is what we should be looking for. Ryan MacLeod another example last year also.

 

[CzarDemidov]

Jets could easily be up in this series.

Heck, I’m rooting for em.

 

[hvac412]

f*** Capitals! Very deserving loss. They weren't even close.

which proves how far inexperienced coaching will take you in the playoffs,thanks JG/KH...but no worries, Smarty"s still learning to be a coach for the most storied franchise and the fans can keep hoping we might win two games next year in the playoffs,Geez ,it"s only been 30+ years....these things take time

I wish Monty would have been healthy, the series would have gone longer than 5 games.

Agreed. Dobes did the best he could and while I don’t think he cost us the series, he let in some pretty bad goals, or at the very least, untimely.

Still, I think it was that Wilson hit that ended it for us. Plus, our defence and 5v5 wasn’t strong. Carolina is a seasoned and structured team. I feel they were like us in that they had a some big players but they don’t have a bunch of bruisers. But thise fckers just grind and suffocate you and they clearly were not intimidated at all by Washington.

Plus, I wonder if they were facing Lindgren wearing a Thompson jersey, lol.

 

[Schooner Goon]

We'll see how they react when they get slapped around if they play Florida.

The same was said about Washington before the Canes-Caps series.

Florida still has to get by the Leafs. They lose tonight at home and anything can happen in Game 7.

 

[Soaker]

Curious what the Capitals will do this off season,will Ovechkin hang em up or go for another kick at the can.

He's got one more year to float around and then he's gone back to Russia.

Caps probably miss the playoffs if they run it back.

That team is nowhere near as good as they finished.

PLD is back to being completely useless again.

I wonder if he asks out this summer, or next.

Is that what he said as I haven't heard that.

Structured is the key word here. Something that St Louis doesn't have an idea of.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Nah, it's just a fringe rumour at this point, but honestly not a stretch to think about.

Given how he will likely get a lower salary than what he could in Russia, too
