Not to mention the save he made on the PK.

Hadn't quite gotten there, but yes.

Am pretty much caught up now.

I'll take that period.  The slouched a bit in the second half but got out with the lead.

Sure. One to go.  Get ready for the Caps to come hard.    We need to NOT lay back and clear the puck.   Instead let’s get a few more goals.

The best defense is a strong offense.

Keep attacking boys.

[JohninMinn.]

I think the boys come out with an attitude. 

5-3 Sabres

[Ctaeth]

That 14-0-1 stat is pretty nice..

I suspect that they will need another goal or two with the way the Caps finished that period.  Would be nice to get some contribution from someone outside of the top line.  Wonder if Granato is going to let the kids play in the third

[DarthEbriate]

Remember the Alamo Death Star! Keep up the attack. And c'mon JJP-Cozens-Quinn, go get one.

Basically, play the 3rd like how Ottawa played on Sunday.

Can’t believe I’ve had 3 $15 beers.

I just have to say, Ovechkin is the greatest pure goal scorer I've ever seen play the game. His shot placement is just so dam good. When he's gone, retired, I will miss seeing him play.

Expand  

It’s too bad Bossy’s career was cut short, he could have scored around 800.

[kas23]

It’s nice seeing Ovechkin score, otherwise ***** the caps.

I usually rationalize it as having 6 $7.50 beers since they’re usually 24oz.

Expecting he'll continue rolling 4 lines more or less.  (Thompson line might steal an extra shift here or there.)  All 4 lines have played pretty well overall.  D have been pretty solid too.  But would more expect the, going to 4 D sooner than 3 lines.

Balance is good.  But a TNT Hattie is good too.

Milano playing like Matt Milano. 

[Taro T]

Nuts & bolts.

[Spoonman]

PHUCK 

[matter2003]

Rebound control rears it's ugly head again.

[John Tucker]

We are SOOOOO bad in our own end

[Believer]
