LOL
Thanks!
Trotz is doing a masterful job on line changes. His squad is believing in the system and themselves.DD-Tech wrote: ↑Sat Apr 13, 2019 8:12 am How about them Isles! Nobody on Pittsburgh touches a puck without taking a hit. Isles have been awesome in the first two games.
How about them Blues! WINnington!
How about CBJ shocking them bolts on the road! Wow!
Need to get the Bruins back on track to spank Toronto today. Can’t have them winning games. I think Boston sweeps them the next for games. Pajama Boy shot his playoff load in game 1. Laffs are done!
Isles are hotter than ever. I don't think I have missed a game this year. They are hotter now than at any point in their season. Nice to peak at the right time.
That kid will have a great story to tell his grandkids one day. What the heck was he thinking dropping with that beast???
100% agree with you DDT. Punch landed, legs fail, and Ovi can't stop the grazing punch that was already coming. I'd say that if the kid didn't collapse Ovi's next punch would've really done some damage. As it was, the kid toppled back and Ovi fell forward on top of him. Unfortunate that the kid got hurt but the announcer (sounded like Craig Button) is amped up irrationally and is incorrect (IMO).DD-Tech wrote: ↑Wed Apr 17, 2019 10:04 pmThat kid will have a great story to tell his grandkids one day.

I don’t agree with the guys calling the game saying that Ovi purposely slammed the kid’s head into the ice and that’s how the kid got hurt. That kid was out before he hit the ice. Ovi didn’t slam his head into the ice on purpose. I didn’t see it that way.
Yeah all that but you forgot the Storm Squad!old salt wrote: ↑Fri Apr 19, 2019 3:08 pm Caps are in trouble. They can't cope with the Cane's speed. Can't clear the neutral zone & maintain possession in their ozone. They can't even keep it in on the PP. No offensive possession time or continuity. They've been lost & outcoached in games 3 & 4.
injuries are hurting both teams. Oshie will be out for a while. Fogel wasn't suspended for his boarding of Oshie. He claimed he was trying to lift Oshie's stick. That looks reasonable. Oshie has a history of shoulder injuries. The Caps called up last season's playoff spark plug Devante Smith-Pelley. That might help as the Caps juggle their lines.
The Cane's lost their 3rd forward to injury. The Russian kid should be back soon. He's under concussion protocol, but skating in practice, looking normal & he's now got black eyes. He'll have a story all right, Ovi was his hero. First NHL fight between 2 Russians. The Canes coach was in the NHL's first fight with a Russian. Karmic irony.
@ now, the Cane's look like the tougher next potential opponent.
If Caps don't regroup at home, it'll be over in 6.
Ovi went absolutely beast mode in that game. Forget the one goal and two assists in his 18 minutes. His 11 hits put the the Canes on their heels all night. They wanted nothing to do with him.
That was as gutless as the Minnesota bench back in the day! Brooksie will tell ya!DD-Tech wrote: ↑Sun Apr 21, 2019 7:29 amOvi went absolutely beast mode in that game.

Here is a highlight of the assist where Hamilton decided not to take the boards with #8. Bad decision but I guess when your life is flashing before your eyes you do these things!
