That was on the defense.  Jensen and Panik puck watching.

[zerofox]

Would have liked Sammy to have gotten that but let's be real it would be 4-1 with Holeby in net.

[alta]

if Sammy lets in another soft one like that he should be pulled

[Pavel095]

It’s PP!

[ArJunaZ]

I am going to report you to a moderator!  oh wait!   

[zerofox]

Not that I strongly disagree, but we'd probably end up just letting in more soft ones with Holeby.

[zerofox]

I feel like our D is not good at keeping pucks in at the line.

[alta]

why do I always feel like the NBC asshats are watching a different game than the one being televised

[Pavel095]

Terrible PP this period ..

[Surreylily]

We're gonna need to do better than that.

[waynerivers]

We need A LOT more forechecking.  We're also losing board battles even where we outnumber them.  In our own end, STOP sucking back on the net.  Go after their guys on the boards and at the points.  That's what they're doing and it's working.  Somebody better fix the PP, too, and soon.

The level of bias by the NBC announcers makes you think its USA vs Russia at the Olympics

[ArJunaZ]

We all know the answer to that.  It's because they are paid to suck the Ranger Penguin cock. dildo

[zerofox]

The NBC bias is so huge that they're interviewing Crosby about Ovechkin lol.

NBC: Sid, tell me about what it was like for Ovechkin growing up in Russia

Sid: ......

[alta]

in the whole OV vs Synde thing, I happy the Caps won the dueling hat trick game

[KollieOlizig]

Not that I strongly disagree, but we'd probably end up just letting in more soft ones with Holeby.

    Who knows what would have happened if Holtby was in net. He is struggling now but he is still better technically than Samsonov. Both the goals on Samsonov were because of poor technique.
     I hope Holtby can get out of his funk. And I hope people realize that tge Caps play a more defensive game when Samsonov is in net. The Caps give up more high danger chances when Holtby is in net.
    Reirden is doing a good job developing Samsonov. Putting him in a position to succeed. This is an important game in the development of Samsonov. His biggest test to date.
