After that Florida/Carolina game, this Dallas/ Edmonton game is about to put me to sleep.




and with that it picks up a bit in the 2nd


Considering I was pulling for Edmonton, to win, its a good thing I fell asleep.  If The Oilers don't get their  :poop: in order McDavid is leaving the minute he's a free agent.  Part of me would love for him to sign with The Caps but I don't see that happening. 😥

Panthers certainly didn't seem to struggle scoring against Canes smothering style of play.
Panthers are way better team, more talent, bigger and play tougher.  They know how to elevate their style to playoff hockey and it shows.  They also appear to be peaking at the right time - they didn't look this good in round 1

Yep - I;ve been saying the same thing for years.  Its always amazing to me how all the TV analysts are so lazy and just repeat the same thing - that we are a big, heavy team.  If they ever watched any games they would know that we get pushed around by aggressive teams and besides the players you mentioned, are actually very soft.

Oh look, the Canes CAN be beat at home. Vs a team that plays very similar to us..  ::) Only (noticeable) difference I saw was their shots had elevation/accuracy. Our shots all scoot along the ice into the goalie pads. Whatever.. Go Cats.


The Caps are supposed to be physical but when you watch Florida you realize how un-physical they really are.  Ovie, Wilson, Duhaime and Fehervary are the only four guys who would fit on the Panthers roster.

Florida has the blueprint for playoff success.  Their guys are mostly big, physical and mobile.  They're also endlessly aggressive on the puck at both ends of the ice all game.  The Caps should take some notes.  Ekblad, Mikkola, Kulikov, Jones and Forsling are all better than any Caps d-man.  We need major retooling throughout if we plan on being any type of contender in the next few years.

The Canes didn't get much of a test against the Caps and that will hurt them. Look for a Florida sweep again.  I would like that except Marchand is now on Florida.

Maybe there is hope yet for Alexyev!  That is the kind of guy we need to clear the crease!! Now, if he could just play a little better....
He may be able to get better defensively, but don't think there's any fixing the skating..
