GDT #42 Caps vs Canadiens OTL 3-2

<< < (9/10) > >>

waynerivers:
10-9 in the last 19 games.  They haven't played well since before Thanksgiving.  The paltry shot totals they are putting up shows clearly that they have stopped aggressive forechecking and aren't spending nearly as much time in the offensive zone as they did the first two months.

Agree 100%. Carlson gives you nothing in OT. It’s obviously not about defense so pit someone out there with some wheels or who can handle the puck


It’s not just Carlson lately but I swear he’s smoking dope again…he’s missed the net wide with his shots about the last 19/20 times

OT is all about skating.  I'd use Chychrun and Sandin exclusively.  This deferring to Carlson just because he's a veteran, is silly. 

Mickstix:
Yea, along with Ovi, Carlson's time in OT should have expired.. It's definitely not an old man's game once they get to OT. Chychi and Sandin can handle the 1st couple shifts.
