"In its own way it may have even been the worst of the sequels". I guess if I had read this as "as far as originality goes, it was the worst of the sequel trilogy", then I would agree.

I'd still watch a clone of something decent with no soul over two original piles of shit.

I don't know, this feels like a lot of what came after souring it in retrospect. I left the theater after TFA thinking they had done an all right job making it feel like Star Wars (versus how I felt after seeing Phantom Menace), even if they just copied so many story elements. Calling it the...

I'm hesitant to think they'll put all their cards on the table, but maybe they will anyways.

Come on now, we're at the point where any big news would wait until E3 right? Not to mention rumors that 16 is essentially finished they'll let that have the moment first.

Welp, don't care who wins it all now. Still hopefully a team out West, or Florida.

I'm biased as hell, but Penguins one goal definitely looked above the bar and shouldn't have counted in my opinion.

I can't even feel bad about the Caps anymore after watching Toronto. Leafs fans have it rough right now.

2nd goal against was pretty bad tonight, but overall Samsonov played pretty well in the series. Their talent/depth just way better. Losing Wilson was a killer, and it was just really hard for us to generate consistent offense. I say that, even though I think we actually had the better of play...

Congrats to Florida, just too much for us in the end. Definitely feels like we blew it a bit in this series after being up 2-1, but a lot of that had to do with Florida's play and talent. They can go deep.

Sill have to win it. Unreal. I kinda feel like we choked away the series already, but one thing I can't say about this year's Caps team is they didn't give a full effort.

That was a really bad time for a weak goal against by Samsonov.

It's a vet move, but yeah it's so stupid when they call both. It's just such obvious "game management" on their part not wanting to put either team on a PP.

Or just call the holding the stick for the sneaky armpit move. But I agree the whole both embellishment and a penalty is stupid.

Yeah I mean if they clear it off the line there, it's one of those crazy defensive plays we see over and over forever right? Tough to expect them to both be able to stop it like that. Two Game 7's already, hoping Edmonton can force another. Wild look cooked.

True, but stuff like the 3rd goal against not being able to find the puck was painful. Also as much as Carlson whiffing on a puck causing a break the other way was responsible for the 2nd goal, in a big playoff game you'd like your goalie to make a big save on a breakaway there sometimes the...

Wasn't great tonight, although I don't think he was bad, despite giving up 5. Team in front of him really wasn't helping out.

Not the first quick whistle in the series, happens all the time. Other than that just us collapsing. John Carlson might as well have had 2 assists for Florida tonight. Unreal. Credit Florida for not giving up and continuing to push pretty much all game.

You have a feeling Tampa will at least force a Game 7, because Toronto will have to face that ghost (maybe). Going to be fun to watch. Crazy 3rd period, though.

Didn't say my opinion matters any more than the guys on the ice, but just because they want to be mad about it or the Caps just defend Oshie because they're on his team, doesn't make it the end all be all decision on it. These days guys get gone after for perfectly clean hits just because teams...

So many penalties

As far as whether the hit was a legal/not legal hit, guys on the ice opinion doesn't mean anything. Either team could go win or lose Game 5 and it means nothing as far as that hit itself. Each team will just back their guy no matter what. In other news, man...this could get really bad for...

his hands are easily down at chest level, where the contact clearly is initiated. If he doesn't dip his head and raise his stick like he does, he likely takes far less head contact (from Oshie or his own stick). The comments about him cutting into Oshie's path are also true. It's not a...

Guess nobody found all the angles for the hit that were posted. I mean, his own stick is what gives him the "headshot".

Well that fucking sucked.

If I were Trotz, I would probably want to go to an established team with plenty of talent already that just needs some discipline in their game.

The Carolina one seemed pretty wtf, too. We had one late in the season that was similar with the puck loose and sliding slowly towards the net and a player used their stick to push Samsonov's pad into the net and the puck slid in behind it (the player may have made slight contact with the puck...

I assume this is about the GI thing, and not the fact you guys got two 3rd period PP's in a 4-4 playoff game yesterday. All normal missed/bs stuff because you're playing the Penguins aside, Rags definitely had their chances yesterday.

Toronto going to Toronto.

Not sure I'd say our 4-2 Game 1 win with an empty netter to seal it right at the end was a blow out.

Now this is a little more like it.

Rags putting up a terrible game right now.

Should it, though? Playoff Bob, frankly we were tied for best record in the league at New Year's. I'm not saying we're going to be consistently on that level anymore with the age and injuries we inevitably get, but really the only question for us was goaltending. When one of our guys plays...

Not sure why people would pick a team that got outscored 17-1 in the 3 game series they played in the regular season. Our goaltending issue showed up tonight, although Samsonov came in and stopped everything he saw in the 3rd. Goalie decision coming up for us in Game 3.

Pretty much everyone universally notes that post SB patch content is way better than 4.0 itself (so 4.1-4.5). ShB is just far and away superior, too, no concerns there.

Was there any confirmation on DeSmith's injury? I wouldn't be shocked if he was just having some cramping issues given the game length, etc.

OT is so great when your team isn't involved.

Well...we were a great road team this year. Played pretty well to be honest, probably should have scored a few more but Bob played pretty well and we choked some easy goals. Goaltending held up. Injuries might be an issue, though.

That was pretty amazing.

Time to see if we can even be competitive against Florida. I don't have high hopes. If one of our goalies could step up it would help
