Beaglefan2:
I've been a fan of Orlov since Day 1, but he just looks lost out there. Looks like his confidence is shot and he just flails around.
First goal, 12 seconds in, was all on Backstrom. He gave zero effort on the face off, then loafs on defense. He's starting to remind me of Dylan.

How many years did they give him on a contract? Ted will not let a nickel slip by.

I'd guess 3? But being a 1st year coach it shouldn't be too much $$..

He was out at the end of a shift and just skated all the way behind the net. He scored a hattie. How the fuck could you put any of that on him?
What about our illustrious All-Star fucking goalie who couldn't stop a fucking thing tonight?

Totally agree. Ovi did his best all fucking game. He scored 3 goals and made some solid defensive plays during the empty net period, and even almost scored a 4th. He's the last guy the loss is on. The fact that his team was in that position in the first place despite his 3 goals is telling.
Quite frankly, with how garbage our defense has been, I would have placed better odds on us winning due to an Ovechkin 4th goal than us actually closing out the game with solid defense. Seriously. I think putting him out there with an empty net was us playing the probabilities.
