Fan on the clear after they pressured when we got the puck. When that happened I knew it as well, way too much zone time there. Couldn't get a clear. Hungry for lose pucks they were.

Orpik has to do better with that.

[apace41]

Not a bad 1st except for that dumb penalty by Hotlby. We knew they were going to come out flying.  We need to move our legs in the 2nd and feed them what we have, and we HAVE to stay out of the box.  We also need to be more physical. Not so much of that by our guys in this game.

I thought we created a lot of good chances.  We didn't really think the top team in the East was going to lay an egg for the entire series, did we?  I mean TB is a really good team.  Let's hope they come out with a solid second period and get on the board early.

Looked like the puck hopped on him.  Tough break.  They were bound to get one sometime.

Obviously...adjustments will need to be made!

I think the Caps played well, need to tighten up a couple of passes, and if Holts doesn't trip a guy I bet it still tied

[Beaglefan2]

Nice hustle by DSP coming back on defense.


We need Ovi to ramp it up and get physical.

This is hard work.

This is a forum board on the internet, get that rational logic out of here!!

Welcome back ‘Lil - you’ve been missed

Thanks sweetie. 


We've got this, we've got this, we've got this................ and BREATHE.   

[newtoCapsparty]

Uh-oh!  No power here, big storm...satellite down!  Have to switch to radio, which is just as well. 

[Brinkhoffs52]

Well shit....we have got to stop the silly penalties

[Devise]

Tough penalty for Eller to take there, but probably had no choice with the pressure coming in.

[justwincaps]

OK - maybe we need to rethink our PK. 

[Surreylily]

Thanks sweetie.

Crud--too easy on these dumb pp goals. 
Do NOT want to give up this game purely on *&!# pp goals, for Pete's sake.

[Devise]

Ugh. Welp see if we can win Game 4 I guess. I don't see a comeback coming tonight. TB going to return the silent favor.

[OldHat]

Might want to stay out of the fucking box.

[OldHat]

Lots of hockey to go yet.

[justwincaps]

Oh shit ..... and the doubts start creeping in ......
