Not that much to feel good about IMO.  We gave up two goal leads twice and allowed 5 to a bottom feeder at home, even with them sitting guys out.  Way too sloppy in our own end and too much sucking down on the net instead of picking guys up high.  How many times were Rangers all alone cruising down the high slot?  The type of game they are playing will get them booted from the playoffs in about 5 games, IF they make it.

I'm happy though and I still see a Caps team capable of anything they put their minds to.

The Rangers have some set plays. They kept running down the right wing and shooting across the crease. Why did we keep letting them skate in, unchecked?

Welcome to the Caps 3 and 62.   :lmao:

Hagelin was put on the 4th line with the expectation that he will quickly move up. Does that mean Bura gets bumped down to the 4th?

That's what I've been expecting since I first heard Hagelin was signed. Though if the chemistry of the 4th line performs as it did today they may not want to fuss with that. I also would not be surprised if Hagelin lands on the second line if he plays well. Many possibilities.  Imagine the fire lit under Burka's ass if he ends up playing every other game exchanging with Jaskin on the fourth line. Is there anything between his ears to wake up and get him to perform consistently? Hehe.
