Zib got a piece of the Carlson shot causing it to knuckle. Tougher shot than it looked.
If you ever wondered it turns out the Hershey Bears are not competitive in the NHL playoffs. We’ve lost 3 defenseman to clean Rempe hits making us play every game with only 5 defenseman, so Carlsons playing 35 minutes a game. We literally have 4 starting defenseman with a combined total of like 300 career nhl games and 20 playoff games rn. Praying we can get TVR, Jensen, and Sandin back Sunday and steal one win.
Did you see Zadorov's reaction to his delay of game penalty? He knew he messed up.
As a Rangers fan, I can't imagine Caps fans being happy with Ovi right now. He needs to retire.
I'm honestly wondering if younger and more hungry teams like Detroit and Buffalo would put up more of a fight than the Caps and Islanders, who both look like they shouldn't be playoff teams, which checks out when you see the goal differential for both teams…
Always appreciate you
I was expecting the Caps to be bottom 10 in the standing, so I am not disappointed if they lose in 4. I just wish Sandin and Jensen were playing.
LGR!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ovi was a ghost. He looked very lackluster and wasnt much of a threat.
No comment on Rempe‘s hit that most likely concussed his opponent and caused the Caps to go with five defensemen most of the way?
Shesterkin had a fantastic game, but the Caps blew so many chances in this game and their two best offensive players looked invisible, the Rangers absolutely deserved to win this one.
Sure the time the Rangers may get through a quick series and not go 7 games all the other teams are doing the same. ugh
This whole series I just keep thinking of that Simpsons episode when Lisa asks Homer if he knows what schadenfreude is.
Can I just take a minute to rant about how bad the NHL is now for fans trying to watch the playoffs, because I'm die hard, I've been watching playoff hockey for 60+ years, and other than golf, it's the only sport I've played and cared about, so it's killing me that the league (I'm looking at you Bettman) has completely ruined the playoff experience. The advertising on the boards is beyond distracting, and gives me headaches it's so absurdly ridiculous and obnoxious, and have these morons not ever heard of the ability to record the games to be watched later when there are more than one on at a time? No, they're going to keep showing the scores of the other games up in the corner so they can ruin that too.
I swear I'd like to put these idiots in the net with no equipment and dump a bag of pucks at the top of the slot, and 'discuss' these atrocities with them.
Ovechkin looks so disinterested it isn't even funny.
Makes you wonder if any of the teams that barely got edged out getting into the playoffs would be having a better time vs the rangers.
"No Caps fan can come in and say 'they hosed us'."
Take note Toronto fans.
Shesterkin was solid as a rock 🪨
The 3 best teams in the league are in the east
Rangers can play any game their opponents choose. I’m impressed. LGR!!
The Caps announcer said Igor let in a muffin yet; failed to mention how he became a human wall after that… Much Respect to Shesty.. P.S. 0 for 6 on the P.P. the caps were plus; gave up a short handed goal…. Let's Go Rangers!!!!!
The Rangers showed all year that they could play a defensive shutdown game. Lots of 1 goal lead, low scoring wins. They kill the clock with forechecking, cycling in the offensive zone, by shutting down entries into their defensive zone, then getting clears out of their defensive zones. They’ve beaten Carolina this year just like this, and hoping they do it throughout round 2.
I didn’t expect much from the caps, just hoping they wouldn’t get swept. Tough to win games when your special teams aren’t clicking, can’t finish, and by the end of the series you have basically 2 of your starting defensemen. Seriously. With Haman-Aktell playing for Game 4, he is literally like our 10 defenseman on the depth charts (Bear, Alexeyev, McIlrath, Iorio, Johansen, HA). I also felt like they haven’t been physical enough this series. Oh well. 5v5 has been decent. Again, it’s special teams that are killing us rn. Rangers are gonna get a wake up call against the Canes.
Can I just say how sick and tired I am though of all the crap the Capitals are getting? Detroit had 2 chances to beat Washington in the last three weeks. They lost. Flyers had an 8 game losing streak. Nobody in Pittsburgh showed up besides Crosby until it was too late and Guentzel had already been traded. Even the Caps had a 6 game losing streak in the last 3 weeks and still nobody else could muster enough points.
The Caps are burned out after fighting for a playoff spot for the last two months…physically and emotionally. Their defense is shredded and none of the younger players are yet up to carrying the load of scoring…Ovi looks tired I'm sad to say.
