Yeah we do need to improve our defence in the long run. I think we're making the right moves by bringing up big John. But for now, the caps motto is "we're going to score 5/6 goals, can you?"

So far this mentality has worked. I mean, you cant really argue with the best overall regular season record...and it was by a landslide.

That's the kind of mindset that gets you beat. The deeper you go into the playoff the better the defenses get....WTF are they going to do when they can't score 5/6 goals? They sure as shit won't have a good enough defense to stop the other team from scoring.

Lot of shots coming, just nothing getting in.. let's go ahead and put this away

what an awful game, and maybe i'm just focusing in on him to much but green is still not playing up to par, but he wasn't the only one there were a ton of shitty passes across the middle that got picked off. varly is a freaking stud though great game from him yet again. and i hate to harp on it again but the refs are f-ing us hard in this series i thought it was because because we were in mtl, but last night was pretty awful as well i mean how do they miss 6 guys on the ice we should have been up by 2 men. i'm sure we'll beat their ass in mtl but would have been nice to win at home and get some rest

I think if we win this series we play Philly since they'd be the lowest remaining seed available unless Boston wins their series (not sure whether it's Boston or Philly at the 7 seed. )

I'm getting antsy about the Caps and Montreal...If their goalie gets hot, we could end up watching other teams compete for the cup. I hate to be pessimistic, but...

Ok, take it easy buddy. My point is that its a little late now to worry about building up a good defensive corps. We have to work with what we have - a high powered offense, on/off goal tending, and a so so defence.

Lets see if we can't seal the deal on the road tonight. I'm sure Gabby has chewed those asses out for a day or two...now it's time to respond.

We need to finish this thing.....TONIGHT!

Second line needs to step up and solid D is of key importance! Semin/Flash/Green get your heads outta your ass and play hockey.

LETS ROLL CAPS!!!!!

That was a hell of a look from backstrom and semin. Halak is playing pretty good so far...

JLW428 · 04-26-2010, 07:18 PM

Varly got real lucky there.

JLW428 · 04-26-2010, 07:22 PM

We are getting a lot of really solid looks. This reminda me of game 1 where Halak is playing like a freak.
