GDT: Capitals @ Sabres, 7pm NBCSN, 11/7/17

Game on!

[Doohicksie]

Mmm. That was all Eichel.

 

Not quite.  You think Moulson finishes that?

[ubkev]

Simple. Pass, shoot, score.

[Thorner]

He's starting to worry me. I'm generally pretty lenient, but...

  

He looks really bad.

Does he legitimately need a hard ass coach like Torts to step in and guide him?

 

---

 

And there's a flash of Eichel's top notch talent.

 

Kane and Eichel will never be split up.

[Sabel79]

Not quite.  You think Moulson finishes that?

If he had an hour and a half to get to the spot, yes.

[bunomatic]

Not quite.  You think Moulson finishes that?

Well no but thats not what I meant. 

[hockeyhound]

Refs letting it all hang out.

[Huckleberry]

I don't know I like reinharts play.

[Thorner]

I can't believe we are going to trade Kane. Who would have thought he'd be THIS much more valuable to our team than Okposo. Yet Okposo's contract could mean he's our guy, our "expensive wing contract", by default.

[woods-racer]

I don't know I like reinharts play.

His line just had a really nice shift.

[Stoner]

[ubkev]

His line just had a really nice shift.

They did.

[Weave]

Not quite.  You think Moulson finishes that?

 

That play is why Kane should be with Eichel and not Girgensons.  I know alot of folks want Z on his wing, but noone other than Pommer or Kane finishes that play.

[Stoner]

Ovechkin and Eichel joking around before the drop. A nice moment (not ragging on Jack).

That's a nice save by Lehner, who must have been ready to doze off.

Lehner steals the show, nice save.

[Stoner]

Twice tonight I've remembered why they call Girgensons the Latvian Locomotive.

I can skate fast and not handle the puck too.

[Stoner]

Who hurt you? Show me where on this pillow.

[darksabre]

Same.

[Thorner]

I can skate fast and not handle the puck too.

Sometimes I like to think we are getting enough from him, then I remember he was a mid-first round pick.

[ubkev]

Man, Jack is flubbing the puck a whole lot tonight.

[Sabel79]

1. Lenny needs to have a shock-collar fitted and an invisible fence needs to be installed to keep him above the goal line. He just can’t help himself, always with the nice feeds to the other team.

And again...

[Weave]

Sometimes I like to think we are getting enough from him, then I remember he was a mid-first round pick.

 

Flawed players are the norm mid-first round.  Most end up in mid to bottom 6 roles

[hockeyhound]

Sam got Popped

 

Lenny channeling his inner Hasek tonight

Wow, Wilson crushes Sammy and then he tilted McCabe.
