GDT #11 Caps vs Panthers @ 7:30pm

[Surreylily]

I'm finding this hard going tonight.
 

[Surreylily]

Come on the reds   ....   oh, wait........

[alta]

Mantha is leaking on the ice after catching a puck to the face.

[Mickstix]

Cool, Mantha having a night, gets one in the face. 


Somebody buy Lady Luck some flowers or something. 

[Surreylily]

Not the red I was after.   

[Surreylily]

From the replay that looked like a fist, not the puck.

[Mickstix]

Hopefully he's ok. That looked like it could of broke stuff though.

[alta]

extra minutes

[Mickstix]

Bro practically tackled Wilson. 

[Surreylily]

Oh joy.
OT

 

[Mickstix]

   


Oh well, got a point.

[alta]

 


 

[Surreylily]

Got a point.  Glad it's over.

Night all.   

 

[Mickstix]

Friday night, normal time. Later..

So why start the same guys all the time in OT - they are not effective.  Why not reward the guys that have played well - like McMichael.  He showed great speed and good hands. I would go with McMike, Strom and Fever.


Overall, a decent effort. Thought McMike was a star and Protus was skating.  The cross-check McMike took was dangerous and I was surprised there was no response. Somebody should have taken out Reinhard.


The Phillips experiment should be over.


Another struggle for Oshie.

[Mickstix]

^^^^^^^^^^ Word! lol

Well Shit. Overall pretty good showing. Even Kuemper looked good
Fuckin Mantha cant catch a break. McMike decided he wants to be a center in the NHL for real
I don’t know who the Caps pissed off but they don’t get the calls. Fuckin phantom calls on Willy but he gets grabbed & TSA searched on a breakaway and no call.
Fucking offsides BS fucking rule. Yeah it was offsides but it had nothing to do with the goal.
So ten games in and Mantha has more goals than Ovie and we have more SH goals than PP goals and have more goals overturned than we have PP goals
Team is a struggle enough…it doesn’t need help
Ovi looks like old doo-doo, except he’s made some nice passes, otherwise he looks old and slow and a little lost

[waynerivers]

Two observations:

Ovie looks like he's had it.  If he gets 10-15 goals for the season, he should retire rather than embarrass himself.

Kuemper sucks.  He stunk on the 2nd goal and was comical on the OT goal.  He does stuff that you should have been coached out of in Pee Wee hockey.  Our goalie coach appears to be useless.


Oh, and make sure you have your slowest guys out there for OT.

[Mickstix]

Im concerned about Ovi, but at least he's kinda in the play. Making passes, getting off a shot or two. Oshie though, I just feel sorry for. Bro looks beer leagueish.


Kuemper can't get his shit together until he gives up at least 2 on minimal shots. 


Kuzy had been sick all week and looked like shit all night. McMike or Strome should of been the C on the ice for the 1st couple shifts of OT. We SHOULD of been on the PP, but not sure that would of made a difference other than possible delay the loss for a minute or two.


Our PP is clown shit. We spend at least half the time chasing/retrieving the puck and trying to get "set up" in zone.. Other teams just waltz into our zone, setup, take shots, collect rebounds, more passes/shots, rinse/repeat.. We're just too old and slow with them all on the ice at the same time.

That pretty much says it all.
