KURALY

 

[Ale Xander]

Tied up!!!

 

[durandal1707]

Just the tip

 

[Dummy Hoy]

Great play by Nordstrom

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Welp that was just a PP line I guess, Ritchie out with Krejci again

 

[durandal1707]

Horrible coverage

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Awful backchecking. Wilson chickenwing Chara in the offensive zone?

 

[Maximus]

That was shortlived. Their skill players are lethal.

 

[cshea]

Heinen has been shit of late

 

[Bergs]

I don't know who's gonna win this game, but I like what I've seen.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Score please

 

[Maximus]

Need an equalizer here.

 

[The Napkin]

is it wrong to root for the recurring infection in Ritchie's elbow? asking for a friend

He really brings nothing that a kid in Providence couldn’t give them.

 

[durandal1707]

Power play in a slump

 

[PedroSpecialK]

What on god's green earth is Brett Ritchie doing on the PP

 

[The Napkin]

What on god's green earth is Brett Ritchie doing on the PP

same thing he's doing ES - losing the puck

 

[durandal1707]

Killing possession?

 

[Maximus]

Caps PK is pretty good, they keep mostly everything on the perimeter.

Any ETA on Senyshyn?

 

[cshea]

Fire Ritchie into the sun.

Beaten to it

Rehabbing with Providence at the moment.

 

[Salem's Lot]

Good take a penalty you idiot.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Please call them both and get this bum off the ice

 

[Maximus]

Fire Ritchie into the sun.

Ritchie was a useless signing by Sweeney.

Ritchie was useless signing by Sweeney.

I get why he was signed - 2nd round pick, big body, had some upside, but he doesn't have any discernible skills. Waiving him eliminates his cap hit thankfully so no harm, unless he stays in the lineup

He really feels like the second coming of Jimmy Hayes.

 

[The Napkin]

at least it's only for a year I suppose.

 

[SoxFanInCali]

That 4 on 4 might as well have been a power play.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Bjork should be insulted that Emrick confused him for Ritchie

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Silver lining: DeBrusk and Krejci are getting some great PK reps on each of their 5-on-5 shifts

 

[Salem's Lot]

Every time Ritchie is out there it’s like they’re short handed.

 

[RedOctober3829]

Caps are suffocating the Bs the last 5 minutes.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Backstrom hooked the shit out of Bjork

 

[The Napkin]

I look forward to Ritchie flubbing a 6 on 5 chance

 

[SoxFanInCali]

Tough to get an equalizer if you can't actually possess the puck in the offensive zone.

 

[durandal1707]

Team needs to find it's 5v5 game and fast. Especially if the PP goes cold like it has.

 

[Salem's Lot]

They should be 25% tonight.

 

[SoxFanInCali]

Never looked like they would get a decent shot off even 6 on 5.

 

[RedOctober3829]

Wouldn’t you know it.... a goal waived off for offsides 20 seconds beforehand was the difference in the game.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Credit to the Caps, they took advantage of the breaks and locked it down when they had to. Holtby could be playing in the Finnish league at age 40, come back to the NHL, and own the Bruins for some god forsaken reason

Caps are a very good team. Can't go 0-5 on the PP and consistently get beat 5v5.

 

[Bergs]

That was an entertaining hockey game.

 

[JCizzle]

They should just forfeit every game in DC unless they play it the day of the super bowl. Fuck this

 

[mostman]

It’s been a rough week for my relationship with sports officiating across the board.

They didn't, they were 1-5. Point holds true overall I guess.

I was really impressed with Bjork's confidence with the puck- he'll make a few mistakes, but he's not afraid to make a play. I can see him hitting a wall in January for a bit but coming out the other side as a legit dangerous top 6 guy (even though he's likely a 3rd liner this year)
