GDT #46 Capitals at Bruins @ 12:00

zebras are going to lose control of this game

     I think they lost this game long ago. The refs have had an off day too.

    How is that not a game misconduct. That was a blatant boarding.

I disagree. Tinordi turned away at last moment and Hathy didn’t plaster him. Bad situation and bad result but not entirely on Hathy
And would not have happened if game wasn’t out of control

[Mickstix]

We sure do like giving up 2, 3, 4 straight goals at a time to Boston, Pitt, NYR.. Playoffs should be fun.

     This game has me wound up a bit. I want to get in a brawl. Unfortunately only my wife is around and I'm not messing with her. She will kick my ass.

And the NBC talking dickheads were actually questioning where Wilson’s hands were I the “hit”. And the guy basically fell in front of Wilson. Then they go in to question his intent and concluded his intent was to hit the man first and not okay the puck. (Excuse me but they are allowed to check players)
Sickening petitioning to create an incident that wasn’t there.

oh joy, an empty netter

Our best D man is -4 today

Meh.   

[richkrt99]

I think 5 goals on 25 shots doesn’t add up to success

[richkrt99]

Rask actually had a good game vs the Caps for a change
He made several big time stops

[alta]

Caps were not enthusiastic in the 1st, when they did wake up they had to fight two opponents

I'd only blame one or two of those on the goalie

     He didn't turn very much. He may have turned a bit. You could see something bad was going to happen there. Even watching live at full speed. I saw it immediately and knew it was going to be 5 and a game.
      I think he will get suspended too.

[Chaos43]

     The numbers don't look good but I'm not throwing Vanecek under the bus for this one. The team already threw him under the bus.

Caps have a well needed 3 days off, next game is Thursday night at the island

No surprise either about the refs or the comms.
The Bruins are far dirtier than they used to be  They always used to play hard, but never got dirty untill the Rat joined them.  Not that I'm blaming it all on him.
Still.....
That last Halfway hit = The guy turned his back right at the last second.  Dangerous and stupid thing to do.  The plan worked though, huh!

[Chaos43]

Rask actually had a good game vs the Caps for a change
He made several big time stops

    He made some huge saves.
Bad thing about this game was that we out shot and out chanced the Bruins. Rask was the difference. We had 4 breakaways and never scored on one of them.
We had a ton of grade A chances and couldn't bury them.
    And it seemed like every mistake we made ended up in the back of our net.

mr norris was a -5

[Mickstix]

And as usual, the winning goalie made a couple 10 bell/robbery type saves and ours didn't. Not V's fault, but again, gotta steal one every now and then to keep your team in it..

       You gotta watch some Bruins highlights from the 70s. That was a crazy bunch. I'll never forget when a bunch of Bruins players climbed into the stands at Madison Square gardens and we're fighting the fans. Brad Milbury pulled a guys shoe off and beat him with. That was when hockey was fun.
