NHL.com is wrong, no way have the Flyers scored a PP goal.


I agree with you and Mick, 4Caps!
 When I saw the replay of the goal, there were five capitals on the ice!  I counted because I wasn’t sure.
It was a good shot right between Oshies legs, well timed, But I still think Holtz should have had that one.  Even if Oahu’s screened it, It had enough distance and was in a straight line, for Holtz to react to it. I hope Holtz turns his mini slump around!!

Crowds/fans can be so annoying at times, that was a slash.

Two games in two nights is too much effort so you come out in a division game and shit the fucking bed like that?

Assholes.

The last 10 games or so show why Riorden is in over his head.  It's one thing to win on sheer talent but when you need to discipline a lazy assed team playing carelessly or alter your gameplan, he has no clue at all.  He's an empty suit back there and is why this team will probably underperform in the playoffs.

Giving up a shorty usually leads to a loss probably 85-95% of the time, so I wouldn't expect much in the 3rd. One of those nights.  :-\

Not just tonight.  They've looked like garbage for a couple weeks at least.  They fall behind every game or get outplayed and manage to scrape by.  They should have lost the SJ and Carolina games, too.  This is on the coach.  He either does nothing or they tune him out altogether.  That's not a recipe for playoff success.


On another note, can we please send Jensen to Hershey and play either Djoos or Fehervary?  He's a complete defensive nightmare.

But Rierden likes those great learning opportunities.  ::)

Caps had 3 power plays in the 2nd, I don't expect the zebras to be generous in the 3rd

Shit!!


Philly, just got a Shorty, while I was typing my last post!!
Two things:
Holtby WAS able to make enough of a stretch with his leg, all the way to the post, and WOULD HAVE blocked the shot, BUT his late TIMING of the stretch, was the problem!
When Holtz is on his game, his stretch timing is perfect, and that shot would have been blocked!
 More proof, that he’s been a little off as of late!!


2nd thing is how the shorty breakaway even started!  I rewound Carlson’s intercepted pass, for the breakaway, and dammit,  Carlson absolutely rushed that pass, BECAUSE he was fully INTIMIDATED, by the defender skating at him!
 Use whatever SEMANTIC word games you want! I call it a MISTAKE, committed as a result of being TOO concerned about a little bit comin to his body!!  Sometimes, you simply have to suck one up, crowd around the puck, and protect it as best you can!!   Not appear to have the attitude, “fuck it, I don’t care what happens,If I just fling it away,  maybe they’ll leave me alone!! I’ve got to protect my precious little self from any harm!!”   Friggin douche bag!!


 Many of our opponents have learned EXACTLY how you can disrupt JOHN Carlson!!

Good post Wayne!
 You don’t post often, but they’re very insightful when you do!


 I’ve been saying for a long time that this team is so talent laden, that it practically has the luxury of CHOOSING when it feels like playing at a high-level, or NOT!
 I had been heavily on the coachs’ case from last year, and then when CAPS were really turning it on in November I started to praise Rierden a bit,  but with this month-long energy drop,  it really does seem to be out of Rierdens control!
 The players basically show up when they feel like it, and as fans we are forced to have to accept it or pull away emotionally!
 There’s so much talent on this team, that the boys themselves, do make sure to keep their playoff head above water!  But you just feel screwed, as a fan, when you witnessed this stuff!!
