that's the second time this season Oshie was taken out on a play that should've had supplemental, I'm getting pretty fed up with how the NHL calls things, and it won't change until Buttman is retired

I especially like this one..
"Captain Alex Ovechkin passed Pittsburgh Penguins center Evgeni Malkin for the
most Stanley Cup Playoff goals among Russians in NHL history."
OV has played in 40 fewer playoff games than malkin has, as of game 5

I hate losing Oshie as that guy has the burning desire and gives it his all. For some reason though, I think it might be a good thing this year, at least for the short run. It gives the Caps something to rally around and although I don't like DSP, he does give us another physical guy and we really need that.
For all the talk of the Caps being a "heavy team" I think Carolina exposed that as not true, especially in Game 3, and consistently with or D. Other than Orpik, you can argue that our D is one of the softest in the league. If we are going to make a run, we have to hold up physically.

Refs penalize Eller, don't notice that they put Connolly in the box instead

Let's not forget about Holtby's addition to last night's game.
