That was disappointing.
We're gonna need another one of them big third periods.
-
Thompson probably wants another chance at that one. Looked like he just whiffed on it. :-\
-
nother PK . .
-
Guys need to step it up.

Ovi doesn't look like he wants those last few goals. At least not this season. :raspberry:

it was a decent battle between the two top teams, I’m still disappointed at the result
-
Meh, good game. Ovi evening it up was a win for us! Didn't see anything out of the Jets that says we can't beat em'.. Is what it is.
Thursday at 7:30 I won't be around for that one. "Gone Fishin"

Yes, once again the loss comes via a format that won't exist in the playoffs.
The one distinguishing feature is that our goaltending has been, on the whole, very good this year. Whereas Winnipeg has, right now, the best goalie on the planet.
If I were a betting man, which I'm not, my bet would be that we would not meet Winnipeg in the finals. Maybe one of these two teams will make it to the finals, but both won't.

Of course it would have been nice to win, but, we stole a point against a really good team, in their barn, and Ovi scored.
It's the Pegs who should be annoyed for not closing it out in regulation. :uh-huh:

I actually thought the Caps outplayed them and it was good effort. It was good to see Mangi fired up, although he took a stupid retaliation penalty. I loved when he got into it with the guy that was about 18 inches taller than him - the Willy stepped in.
Protas seemed to be more into this game than the last few games - needs to get his 30th!
