Fuck Pittsburgh. Caps just need to play like the first 55 minutes of that game again. Still tired of Ovechkin on 3rd line. Eller does great on the boards and cycling the puck, but he doesn't enter the zone with control enough. About all we got out of it (although it seemed to wear guys down)...

This dude in background at Capitals/Penguins Game 6. He was at Game 5 as well.

Not all heroes wear capes...

If Wizards could win on the road they might actually scare someone.

Carlson didn't look like that was going to be a good result for him at first. Then honestly the scariest play was Hornqvist's face coming that close to Niskanen's skate blade. Eyes, neck...all kinds of worry there. I saw blood on the towel they were holding to him, hopefully just on his cheek...

We'll always have the jail scene with them and Bronn though.

Hype

I mean, Astro still posts. If that's sliding than anything else is just meh.

"He's a cautionary tale". Jian Yang mocking Erlich at the dinner was fucking great too.

This is a decent point...but 5 of those teams (Lakers, Celtics, Heat, Spurs, Cavs) were either semi dynasties or teams specifically built with key free agents grouping together to win a title. Only the Mavs and the Warriors won in the normal organic way, and the Warriors with Durant have turned...

This Edmonton game. Holy shit. The passing on the hatty and 7th goal was just amazing. NBC savage as fuck too after the 5-0 1st replaying interview with Ducks pregame talking about how they need to get off to a good start.

Fear of SJW bullshit and the overreaction that follows is starting to get as bad/worse than SJW bullshit around here.

Went to the game tonight. Almost seemed sleepy through 40 minutes, 18-10 in shots, just not much going on at all. Literally only 9 shots combined in the 2nd period. Then the 3rd happened. The Ovechkin on the 3rd line experiment can go away though, Eller doesn't do as good a job carrying the...

UNREAL. Just an epic comeback and game. Young Oilers learning their lessons. Just sick. Anaheim deserved it completely in 2OT too. All over them.

2nd OT coming up.

I don't want to mess with jinxing it, but it's a hell of a game. OT was nuts, Ducks got trapped a few times on long shifts (1st OT always long change period) and icings had very tired guys on, but survived. Some crazy chances for them though, shot snuck through Talbot and was sitting behind...

Holy fuck Mighty Ducks indeed. Unreal 3 goals with goalie pulled in 3 minutes to comeback from 0-3. 3-3 OT coming up. This is insane. Anyone who left that game early should feel like shit.

Rangers seem to have gained control of that series, though. 2 pretty dominant wins on home ice.

Jets would seem like the perfect situation...but their owner has a big problem with his protest last year. I'm skeptical that resistance holds if their QB play is as bad as I expect it to be, but we'll see. Most other teams that "need" a QB got one in the draft, no? Trying to think of where...

I didn't see how the blade came out, did he get hit with a shot (most obvious guess)? Yeah I read that Sid said he felt good even the day after the hit. Since he's skated multiple times since, I'm assuming he hasn't had symptoms flare up. He could play tomorrow night. No idea with Sheary...

That Kessel gif is funny. I don't know why he was so pissed at the staff though, not as easy to put in a new blade on the fly, no?

I'm pretty sure I'm in that exact same boat. I'm pretty sure we've seen this show before...back in 2010. Pens got a chance to see that film, entitled "Halak"...the next round as well. Although we're scoring a tiny bit more than we did during that horror show, the main point is the biggest...

Wasn't expecting the Ranges to be playing a series where the home team has won every game.

Figured you'd like that. Gotta admit Orlov kicking the puck into our own net in a huge game against the Pens was the most Capitals thing ever. Seems like so many of the 1 goal games have a goal go in of our D man. Not sure I've ever seen one where the guy actually booted it straight into the...

Yeah they played 7 times in the 90's. That decade sucked. This is starting to get there. Not over yet, but it's looking a little...Grimm.

Orlov was shit tonight. I don't mean kicking in the goal either, just some bad plays in our end. Pretty sure Oshie's stick didn't even tickle Bonino's beard there, but what are you going to do? Too many chances left wanting. All you can do is tip your hat to the Pens and Fleury right now...

Guess it depends on the narrative. Our own D man kicked the puck straight into our net. Shots 17-5 in 2nd period, 29-14 for the game. Desperation is there, keeping goals out of our net and putting more in theirs we're still working on.

Nashville v. whoever wins the Anaheim/Edmonton series is going to be an awesome WCF. Maybe not ratings wise for NBC, but the hockey should be pretty damn good.

Seeing the archives in Seville was pretty awesome. I thought from Olebass' link they were going to find the anchor on tonight's episode. Guess they're just setting it up. There's enough cool background stuff to get past the stuff that seems completely contrived. Still think the interactions...

From what I hear, we have to hold a players only meeting for those plans to be hatched

Well...can almost pencil in Real to the Final at this point. Never say never, but if they score even 1 away goal in the return leg it's all but certain.

Well, at least it's going to be a fun ride. Pretty cool to see actual payoff.

Like I said, it's almost worse that Cleveland still fucked all that up at No 9 and with Bills' 1st the next year...because they had another 1st to go along with that #9 overall.

It's a stone cold lock that one of the guys Pens called up in light of Sid and Sheary injuries will score a goal tomorrow night.

Not sure which is worse...what they gave up to move up to draft him...or the failure of the Browns to do anything with what Bills gave up.

Not sure Atletico can survive. 12 shots to 1 in first 45. If Real can double their advantage and maintain the clean sheet, should be set up for a much easier 2nd leg.

Fair enough, you've given him more time than the media guys. I'm not going to break down every moment either, but from what I've seen, the Caps have been the better team overall in all 3 games, with the game Sid missed most of being the one we dominated the least. Holtby was fucking terrible...

Also I find it weird how much media and even you were ignoring Geno up till now. He was leading the playoffs in scoring before last night, not Sid. That one timer to make it 2-1 last night was a missile, even if I think Holtby should save that every time. No idea why he keeps giving up so...

This is what every Penguins fan will say. Every metric and statistic points to the fact that the goaltending was the real "win" for the Penguins in Games 1 and 2, and the major problem for us. If Holtby from the first 58 minutes last night shows up in Games 1 and 2, it's likely 2-1 Caps right...

They confirmed he has a concussion, which just sucks and he's not playing tomorrow night. Don't want that, especially with his history, and I want him in if we're to win the series. We can disagree on creating all the scoring chances (4 points on 9 goals scored by his team in first 2 games...
