Orlov and Nisk played more than 25 minutes each, Headman almost 28, next to him McDonagh with almost 23. Headman is used a lot.

As for possible injuries, why play him at all in the third then? And we aren't a one dimensional team anymore. If you cover Ovechkin or we lose him to injury we can still score. Ask Ovechkin, I am sure he would rather contribute.

Yes, Ovie plays better D, but we still scared! :)

And to think I didn't believe the Caps would make it out of the first round! Boy am I glad to be wrong. I really hope this year is our year...

Agreed, Ovie and the team are accepting playing more of a two-way game.
And it’s about goddamn time after 10 years.
As far as him being in the ice at the end like that . . . Eeehhhhh, it was risky. Granted it’s better than putting Bura out there.
