Rare bad game from the defense corps tonight. The forwards haven’t been great either minus some timely finishing, but the defense has really had trouble dealing with Ottawa’s pressure.

Seems like they're playing way too loose.

 

[AlexBrovechkin8]

Mantha has been atrocious tonight.

Mantha has been atrocious tonight.

Season in a nutshell for him.

 

[DWGie26]

The first line has been our best. They have really shined. 4th line has been good. 2nd and third not so much. Just need another timely goal! I’ll go with a 4th line goal… Protas!

 

[twabby]

Lucky no call on Irwin.

 

[ClevelandCapsfan]

Was only a matter of time.

 

[Hivemind]

Ottawa has been the better team for the majority of the night. Caps have had better goaltending and scored some nice opportunistic goals, though.

 

[BallardEra]

Was only a matter of time.

Yep.

Horrible turnover there with Orlov pinching.

 

[Capsman]

Well that’s not a shocker. What will be if this goes to OT.

 

[Drakon]

Orlov can't spend that long that far into the zone, it's just begging for that kind of 2 on 1.

 

[ClevelandCapsfan]

3-1 lead down the drain.

 

[Capsman]

Way too much dangling and not enough passing.

 

[ClevelandCapsfan]

Orlov can't spend that long that far into the zone, it's just begging for that kind of 2 on 1.

I really question the wisdom in extending Orlov at the current market rate/term.

 

[YippieKaey]

I blame Hagelin.

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

Tying goal is 1000% on #92. Tries to toe drag with his D pinching and doesn’t get back in time to cut the pass to DeBrincat.

 

[ClevelandCapsfan]

I blame Hagelin.

Or Wilson not coming back soon enough.

 

[BallardEra]

Classic game where you're reading the press clippings and think the team coming in will lay down and give you an easy two points.

 

[shtorm2005]

Or Wilson not coming back soon enough.

But where was Carlson on that goal?

 

[troyerlaw]

Yep.

Horrible turnover there with Orlov pinching.

Also how the hell does that pass to Debrincat get past Kuz? He needs to stop that pass

 

[twabby]

Undeserved point. Let’s make it 2 undeserved points!

 

[marcel snapshot]

Kuzy owes us one, and he seems to know it

 

[Capsman]

They must have confused Pinto with Connor McMichael. Practically laid out the red carpet for him.

 

[Monsterrain]

Just get the 2 points

 

[DWGie26]

I’d like 2 loser points please.
