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.

I generally agree on this, but that second goal Sammy let in today was on the defense IMO. Never should have left Hornqvist all alone for so long near the crease.

Sammy should've been able to stop that if he hadn't hooked the post with his skate, which he keeps doing, and it will cost him

Did anyone here see a penalty by Siegenthaler? I sure did not.

I agree that the defense was brutal on the play.
