GDT: WARNING: EXPLODING DEFENSEMEN (WSH vs NYR G4, 8pm)

[SherVaughn30]

Should we be surprised. Jensen got nailed hard into the boards on a late hit, and no penalty on the Rangers forward. I still don't see a penalty against Jensen, then you see Fox embellish a big dive and acting like he just sustained a serious knee injury.

 

[stephenball]

The Caps need to pick up a player that can kick Rempes ass up and down the rink, the rest of the league would likely be grateful.

The Caps need to build a good team that can win hockey games. Don't make personnel decisions based on a person who will flame out after his 15 minutes are over.

 

[McVechkin]

What an awful year for 43. Hasn’t contributed anything of value all year. Just runs around without any purpose. Doesn’t know what he’s supposed to be. Didn’t hate the contract when he signed it. But certainly don’t love it now.

 

[SherVaughn30]

Can't do that if you're 43.

He did it out of frustration. Wilson can only hold back not being dumb for so long.

 

[IafrateOvie34]

We were 0-6 last game on the PP.

Blaming the refs is laughable.

Agreed on the 0-6, however this series is full of stupid non calls too. It's a joke compared to the other series.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

I’ll take a f’ing minor to get a pulse from this team. Well worth it Tom….f em.

 

[ClevelandCapsfan]

Can't do that if you're 43.

Nope refs will absolutely take him out of play. Should have traded him last off season because he can never be effective in today’s NHL.

 

[SherVaughn30]

Is when it's against the Rags. Surprised they didn't call some kind of game misconduct on us there... Bastards.

Bothers me Allen May says that was the correct call on Jensen. Strongly disagree and I'm others feel the same way. Who side is Allen May on?

 

[twabby]

We’re not complaining about the penalty (it was a trip), we’re complaining about Fox rolling around on the ice like he got shot.

I mean this with love: this is loser talk. He got kneed, it's a penalty. Who cares if he sold it? Flip the script and Caps fans don't make a peep!

would have been better hitting the goal scorer from behind along the walls

 

[stephenball]

Chucky just hasn't made any timely saves this entire series

All credit and love to him for getting us to the playoffs, he was a massive factor. But he has not been good at all. Sure he hasn’t had much help, but a way less talented team needs to be bailed out and he hasn’t done it at all.

 

[Misery74]

Except if they score.

There is no upside to his stupidity.

If Darcy didn't win the cup I wouldn't have been clamoring for him.

But he did so thought it was worth a chance. Get in the Rags heads.

 

[LesDiablesRouges]

Please, win or lose, put a couple of these f***heads down in a fight. I’m looking at Rempe, Trocheck, and Cuylle.

 

[troyerlaw]

I’d agree if our PK wasn’t limping along at 70% this series. Anyway, we already had a pulse. We were playing well at 5 v. 5

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Except if they score.

There is no upside to his stupidity.

The upside is clearly, jump start this lifeless roster…score goals, win.

Have you ever played sports before? Because if you did, you would understand how gutless diving is. Jensen barely clipped him, he got up skating just fine once he got the call.

Embellishment is a penalty in the rule book as well, but of course it wouldn’t get called.

 

[Fred22406Capsfan]

Bothers me Allen May says that was the correct call on Jensen. Strongly disagree and I'm others feel the same way. Who side is Allen May on?

Yeah, maybe I'm homering here but it didn't look like Nick stuck his knee out or got into the path. It's his fault the other guy ran into him?

 

[ClevelandCapsfan]

Please, win or lose, put a couple of these f***heads down in a fight. I’m looking at Rempe, Trocheck, and Cuylle.

Add Goodrow to the list.

 

[Pigskin]

we played a pretty good period overall, just can't kill a penalty to save ourselves

I like Willy, he's as frustrated as hell by being neutered by the refs and the league

 

[troyerlaw]

I mean this with love: this is loser talk. He got kneed, it's a penalty. Who cares if he sold it? Flip the script and Caps fans don't make a peep!

Yes but also… Embellishment is a callable penalty. Gets called all the time

 

[Nice]

The Rags have been just as effective on our PP as we have. Just stay out of the box and respectfully decline any call that goes our way. Keep it 5v5

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

It’s just a trip. Unintentional trips count the same as the intentional ones. It’s the embellishment that bothers me.

 

[RandyHolt]

He got neutered by the league... DC fans got screwed again. The league is now too soft for Tom Wilson.

 

[LesDiablesRouges]

Caps should have fought early this series to set the tone, especially after so many dirty hits by the Rags. I really think it could’ve changed things and kept the refs in check, even though they’ve been absolutely awful every game.
