Ho hum.
I've never been convinced that pulling the goalie when you're 2 or more goals down is a wise decision.

Had to watch on delay. Glad I had 4x FF to get through it. First real softies I've seen from Keumper. Saw the whole 1st period and we started out well then basically survived the last half of the period. Then the leakers started.. I was on the FF button by then but didn't see anything that told me we had much of a chance. Seem to be the standard with this group. Struggle to score, then have a breakout game every once in a while. Is what it tis.

Post by: richkrt99 on Thursday November 10, 2022, 05:44:14 PM Eastern
That pretty much sucked.  Not great from anyone.  Although Ovi had a couple-three REAL hits.  Some Hens gonna be feeling those today.
and WTF is with Keith Jones and his hatred for the Caps?  The hooking call on Kuzy vs Crosby was total BS and Jonesy was like "Yeah he got him right on the hands" when it never got anything but stick.  Same with the "hit" from SHeary who all but dodged the guy entirely and Jones was saying he threw out the arm and should be 5 minute major.  WTF happened to hockey? SHeary friggin tried to avoid him and they were all talking like the league needs to review it?


Kind of expected that outcome - Hens were beyond due for some puck luck....and the NHL refs sure as hell did their best to get them some PP time.


And Crosby looks like even more of a total douchebag with the gay porn stache.
