Radar Posted February 23, 2019 Report Posted February 23, 2019 Power play seems to have no system. Pass it around and hope for a shot. Quote
Formerly Allan in MD Posted February 23, 2019 Report Posted February 23, 2019 Keep it up Sam; beautiful shot. Quote

Carmel Corn Posted February 23, 2019 Report Posted February 23, 2019 I feel like the PP almost stifles any momentum we have. The coaching staff has no answers. It's so bad, I say don't even treat it as a PP special team, but rather just play on your normal 5 man units and see what happens. Quote

DarthEbriate Posted February 23, 2019 Report Posted February 23, 2019 Now we face our old nemesis... Kenob the second period. Get out of this one up 3-1 and the Caps will start thinking about the flight home. 1 Quote
Formerly Allan in MD Posted February 23, 2019 Report Posted February 23, 2019 One thing Caps are doing well is having two players forecheck. Effective forechecking is "gold" and for so many teams it's an afterthought. Quote

Statistically, we are now -12 in the third period vs. -9 in the second. What is especially bad is that our home ice +/- is a negative 13 in the 3rd period on home ice. Quote

I don't think he's got the wheels anymore to enact Housley and Botterill's preferred pace. But the type of player --- willing to get to the front of net with an NHL-level finishing shot, yes. 1 Quote

Stoner Posted February 23, 2019 Report Posted February 23, 2019 Eichel played some pretty solid D there in a pinching Dahlin's place. 1 Quote
