Rip Washington

Lul 40 minutes of dominance wasted in 20

And no the 4-1 excuse does not work


If only we didn't allow 30 effing shots in the 3rd period.

Quoting: capsfan2121
I was going to post after the second period that we are the best team in the nhl. Now I’m questioning it


One game won't define this season. This team is stilll really good, especially for the players that come out every night. Managing to do so well when half the time Laviolette only trusts two lines of offense is a good sign. The defense fell apart in the 3rd and Sammy was left to dry because of it, but this isn't cause for large concern at the moment. Cholo may have just proven he's not a full time option, which means those incessant "Kulak to Washington" trades may actually make some sense now.

I'd be interested in doing a deep dive into Holtby as a potential HOF'er. Off the top of my head, he's not there. But, he probably compares rather well to some of the Goalies that barely made the HOF.

The fact that he fell off earlier than most HOF goalies play against him imo

Yeah, Holtby's not a HOF but what it takes to become one has lessened over the years so who knows

question: if a player consistently hits the post on his shots, is he accurate or inaccurate?

on one hand, he's missing the net, but on the other, the goalpost is a very small thing, to hit it consistently is impressive.

Imagine if Edmonton took him over Broberg...

Hyman-Mcdavid-Puljujarvi
RNH-Zegras-Draisaitl


Oilers are fine with Broberg, he has been great in first 4 NHL games and I would be A LOT more worried about the defense if the Oilers didn't have a blue chip D prospect on the way

Lmao. If you were to look at me playing hockey, I'd be the furthest away from an all-star, I'm not the best skater, passer or shooter, my defence is kinda good though and so is my effort

yeah Bouchard has been great in his first full NHL season to, he is so poised and calm when ever he has the puck, wish they would give him more pp1 time as to utilize use his great shot more but all the pp1 time goes to Barrie, I guess when your pp is #1 in the league you really shouldn't mess with it

As a Leaf fan happy to see Tverberg but not having Clarke, Savioe, Othmann and Perreault is kinda crazy.
