purbeast Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 My bad guys, after the sloppy clear attempt with 1 minute left and they kept it in, I said "they are scoring before the period ends" and then 30 seconds later they did. Link to post Share on other sites

Redskin4ever Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Too many people watching the puck instead of watching their man. Why is Orpik standing near the point just watching? Link to post Share on other sites

TryTheBeal! Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 We look like the better team tonight and the numbers bear it out. Â I like the effort. Link to post Share on other sites
Hersh Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 That goal was on Ovechkin, Burakovsky and Orpik. Ovi was gliding to the bench which didn't get Bura on the ice quickly. Bura needs to see the guy right beside him and be skating hard back on defense knowing the puck is in the defensive zone. Orpik and the D guys getting bunched leaving the center of the ice open was also a problem. Link to post Share on other sites

Redskin4ever Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 The Caps need to come out with the same intensity they had that last period. They had taken the crowd completely out of the game. But when they scored, the crowd was louder than any crowd I’ve ever heard. We are sitting down low and I couldn’t hear anything. If they come out and get a goal, the crowd will go back to bringing silent. Most fans sitting around us were scared to death most of that period. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

SAli457180 Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 IMO, if they don't pull this one out tonight, it's going to be a 7 game series. Â Both teams are completely different at home Link to post Share on other sites

purbeast Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 The effort is just lacking so hard right now. Such lazy ass passes that keep getting nothing and then lazy ass entries. Then nonchalant on defense. Very frustrating to watch. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
