They did ok, but will need to tighten it up quite a bit in Carolina.We just keep losing puck battles in our zone and our gameplan is to just let them keep circling the perimeter - which has worked for now as LT has been a rock.
I was wrong on Mangiopani - he played well and Duhaime played great as did Willy.
I love PLD but he has had a couple bad games and Strome and Chicky were little shaky.
Gotta give it to Dylan

We do seem quite passive. Not sure what we're scared of. Need to challenge them more through the neutral zone and pound their ass any chance we get!

Caps won and tied the series up, so I'm going to revel in it for now.
justwincaps:
Had to watch a replay after work and I’m glad we won, but this kind of permanent ain’t gonna get it done. They have won a single period [2nd period tonight] and have badly lost 4 of the other 5 periods in these two games. We are lucky to be tied.
It was a weird contrast of teams. Caps have elite finishing but lack possession metrics; Canes have elite possession metrics but lack finishers.
