Best night of sleep in weeks. #LGRW
The caps lost in OT
Ryan mentioning Jonathan Ericsson immediately gave me PTSD
These upcomming matchups against the Caps and the Pens I'm going to have to watch in the hospital, in case I go into cardiac arrest. LGRW 🐙 🏒 🤘
Raymond has earned himself a better contract than Seider IMO. Seider has been meh this year. His contract shouldnt be above 7.75. Raymond should be 8.25
Love you guys. Think you go pretty easy on Lalonde tho
Take off the homer glasses and youll see a handful of David Perron giveaways/lost puck battles every single game. Let him go, sign a different Vet for that role.
Brad getting existential with it!
Unless Jonatan Berggren is injured, why in God’s name is Austin Czarnik on the team. Czarnik makes too many blatant mistakes, like the giveaway against the Rangers. Also, the only way Czarnik could ever possibly score a goal is if a shot ricochets off his skate.
Seider with 27 minutes and 10 blocked shots!!!!
This season is better than last year
In my mind Kasper projects as a Anthony Cirelli type.
A 20 goal season total would be a totally acceptable outcome. .
Marco probably will be a PK specialist as well as faceoffs in critical situations.
3C despite fans getting angry about that future.
Real tired of the vets making costly mistakes. Perron and Czarnik, surely favored over younger players due the their "experience and defensive capabilities," make two dumb mistakes that cost us two valuable points, and a confidence boost against the best team in the NHL.
Didn't Edvindon return from an injury shortly before he got called up?
1:07:00 sail the high seas my friend lol
When they talked about your best players needing to be out there in the most important situations, and if they aren't, you have a bad team. My immediate thought was Trevor Zegras. And looking at his statline, oof, he's been a ghost this season.
I don’t know how anyone can be surprised copp and compher arent 2c’s and overpaid … we’d be better off getting rid of copp and Fabbri next season and adding kasper and a few other newbies
Seider just continnuing to be a beast. Still crazy thinking back to his draft pick!
"Ryan! You okay? Larkin? DeBri-what? Dude Game one of the Finals is tonight, we're going to get Hossa his Cup!"
Has anyone gone on Game time app or seat geek and looked at the "purposed potential price" already for wings home playoff games??! $500+ per 😅😅😅
Playoffs? You guys are funny.
Gas leak year. I understood that reference.
That "second longest playoff drought" line really pisses me off. Like sorry we made the playoffs 25 years straight and have had to recover a little bit. We wanted other teams to have the spotlight for a bit.
Few thoughts:
* I wasn't a listener when we still had Ericsson, but I always referred to him as "Errorsen".
* I wouldn't call what Petry engaged in during the Buffalo game as "a fight", but it took him off the ice for five minutes, and I think that made us better overall.
* Edvinsson getting trusted in important situations is exactly the point of overcooking the prospects in GR. Perhaps this isn't the result we can expect to see from all our prospects who get overcooked in GR, but we're seeing now the fruits ripening, and I'm absolutely here for it.
* The Arizona Coyotes video is what you get when you animate stock photos. Very cringey. I do wish them the best, and hope they get the land and stay in Arizona, so their fans too get to experience not having an awesome logo on their building's roof.
Brad wins this episode. That mouth breather blast was amazing.
I find it literally hilarious that you guys were so upset about the losing streak (just like all of us) then just as I predicted everyone basically acts like it didn't happen and says like Lalonde says "we didn't even expect to be here". I definitely think what's happening is competitive. Not really fair for you to say it isn't just because we lost the cushion. That's actually a bogas perspective
This is nowhere near the level of the 97 brawl but I'm happy to see that the code still persists.
I'm sick when it comes to every men's and women's sport besides wrestling, and yes the includes the fake wresting
You know what’s gonna happen right? Mathew’s hits 70 against the Wings on Saturday.
Both the Capitals and Penguins have failed to pass the Red Wings and earning any amount of points in the next 2-3 games is huge. Pittsburgh holds the tie breaker for now but if Detroit gets a regulation win then it'll be looking super good. Fingers crossed and down to the wire!!
Compher at 5.1 million to be a 3rd line center isn't bad, their lack of a 2nd line center is the problem.
Kane was the obvious choice for Masterson trophy 100%, very disappointed they he wasn't chosen, I really think he had a shot at winning it, who else in the NHL would you think deserved it more? Coming back from a surgery that no one has ever come back form to be a point per game player? Lyon got nominated just for being an average NHL goalie, 20-17-4 with a .908 save percentage isn't anything special.
