Thank goodness that's over.
I thought we were quite competitive in the first period, but it went steadily downhill from there.
Pretty rubbish. Awfull passing, giveaways, panic passes. yuk!
All credit to NJ. They were all over us. Lindy Ruff's 800th win. :clap:
Surreylily:
Amazed I managed to stay awake to watch this shit show.
Night all.
:yawn: :yawn: :yawn:

Two bad bounces for Lindgren, and Vtec must’ve had ten rabbits feet stuffed up his back side for this match up. Generally speaking though, the Caps looked like they played well most of the game.

I only watched the 9 min condensed game...which was pretty much just a NJ goal highlight reel. Actually not true - the 1st ten minutes looked like all Caps and they could have had a 3-0 lead, and they did appear to have many glorious chances throughout. Lindy looks like he goes down teensy bit early sometimes. Not knocking him for when a sniper bounces one off his ear and in from an impossible angle - or the fact that the GT is consistently left out to dry by the team in front.
Carlson looked horrible as usual...well at least he was well represented in the highlights of the OPPONENT scoring anyway. I know he gets a lot of minutes so it only stands to reason he will be on the ice for some opponent scoring, but he is consistently playing poor defense. He and Eller were both a -3 for the game. Not really what you want out of your Norris candidate. Gustafsson and Mantha also a -3. Eller rang the crossbar, but he also should have had a primary assist on the giveaway to Hughes.
I didn't see the whole game so I really can't say, but nice to hear they competed. Problem is they are very suspect on D and when you don't score, that's not a recipe for success.
