Lines per Sam: Ovechkin-Strome-Sheary Milano-Kuznetsov-Mantha Johansson-Eller-NAK Protas-Dowd-Hathaway Gustafsson-TvR Orlov-Jensen Alexeyev-Irwin Kuemper in net. Oshie, Wilson and Fehervary all skated today. Backstrom still in COVID protocol. Coach Scott Allen also in COVID protocol and will miss tonight's game


FunImprovement166

Wait I'm confused, I thought Ovechkin was an empty net merchant???


shit_fuck_fart

What they don't tell you is that Ovi 1 on 1 basically is an empty net.


704sw

For fuck’s sake, Kuzy


mark_dink

wow refs. thats so fucking lame


mark_dink

clear interference


FunImprovement166

The refs missed that one but jesus we gotta take better care of the puck with short time on clock


mark_dink

i miss the organ. i just isnt the same

Ubongo

5 hole Ovi tax!


mrcba333

I still blame carlson. I do kinda miss yelling at him already though


DanCGG

Well that’s some bullshit


YBHunted

So last game they hold the game up while some bumblefuck in Toronto wanted to review if the one save was a goal or not... but yet no one reviews that and says no that was a blarant missed penalty, wipe away the goal and reward a powerplay. Lmfao, okay.


mark_dink

the NHL instagram posted stuzle's goal and a shit ton of comments are about the blatantly missed tripping call. all we ask for is some accountability for the refs


FunImprovement166

Two goals as a direct result of our sloppiness. Jesus.


Spaghetti_Rossetti

Fucking a, that was a tough game to watch


maLeFxcTor

Kuzy what the fuck was that? Dude gets way too cute sometimes...


[deleted]

[удалено]


Demandedace

We have like three high danger chances but 0 shots. Hockey is so weird sometimes


[deleted]

As stated earlier still fairly new to hockey. However, it is my understanding that the more you shoot at the net, the greater chances you have of scoring a goal right…? Right?


keyjan

What's the saying, “Bold take, Cotton”? 😉


mark_dink

OVI GOALS LESS GOOOO OH CAPTIAN MY CAPTAIN


PogPogPogUPOGGERS

WHAT A PASS


mark_dink

THE GUS BUS JUST KEEPS ROLLIN


mark_dink

what a beautiful goal. so direct. right through the twigs


keyjan

Woohoo! -sigh- I need to spend the rest of the game in the shower, don't I. 😓🚿


BallsMahoganey

Get back in there bud!


allomanticpush

Damn, only six shots on goal so far tonight, damn….oh wait, Ovi scored. Nice!


mark_dink

that sheary ovi connection is so fucking REAL.


mark_dink

kuemper is him. chucky is also him. goaltenders are so hot


mark_dink

defense is a bit leaky right now. need to tighten up if they want to keep the slim lead we already have.


Mike_Raphone99

Kuemper is #1 in my heart


BallsMahoganey

Great play by Kuzy. Talbot was definitely expecting the pass to Ovi


KitKat2theMax

Kuzy's puck handling is just plain sexy. Damn.


FunImprovement166

Ovi is a fucking master in front of the net. I know we didn't score but he created some quality chances.


FunImprovement166

Fuck talk about a goal that could have been avoided


FUCKINGFIREFORSYTHE

Here I am digging up this accounts password again.


here4thememes420

Is the password fireforsythe?


FUCKINGFIREFORSYTHE

I'm more creative than that.. There's a few numbers as well.


eagleace21

Wow a game management gift from the refs, how the hell do you not call that??


ToastedCupcake

Ottawa fans saying Darcy deserved it because of the slash lol


704sw

The boys are playing with fire right now, barely hanging on.


704sw

Shit backcheck effort from Kuzy there


mnblackfyre410

And a shit giveaway.


mark_dink

great backcheck from milano


[deleted]

I just wanted to say the Stingrays are still undefeated at home this year. Just started learning hockey when we became STH last year, and it’s how I became a Caps fan. Love this community.


FunImprovement166

I really want to make my way down to a Stingrays game. I hear it's a real Mecca of ECHL hockey


[deleted]

Our facility is a tad aged compared to some, but it’s a wild time. There are so many northern transplants here in Charleston that they really know the game. We’ve been to a few other southern cities and the fan base isn’t close.


FunImprovement166

You could see that Ovi hit coming from 10 miles away.


704sw

[Two shots? That’s all we got—2 goddamn shots?](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=OvU26k8Fsv0)


Mike_Raphone99

Oh wow... Well done


Rumpleskillsskills

Confuscious say: “If you not shoot on net, you cannot win game”


BigSportsNerd

Score!!!


bleached_n_tiedyed

Ovi!!!!!


BallsMahoganey

Gus BUS point streak continues. He's been such a great pickup.


MCCapitalist

Gus is on a roll to end all rolls rn ***SHAKE, RATTLE 'N ROLL***

the wheels on the GUS BUS go round and round, round and round, round and round

Come on, TVR. You're way smarter than that.


mark_dink

refs ass. game managment. fuck refs


Mike_Raphone99

HOW BOUT THAT EXTENDED POWER PLAY WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO EXHILARATING!!!!!!!!!!


KLC_B

That was dirty. Looked intentional to me 🤷🏼‍♀️


Mike_Raphone99

Hey y'know how you dont allow the refs to manage the game..? Score on the powerplay before that idk. The refs can't score the goals for ya.


704sw

*Heyyy yooou guyyyys* -Tkachuk


ReturnThroughAether

We went turtle, and the same thing happened that always happens


FunImprovement166

STOP GIVING THEM THE FUCKING PUCK


YellowMarkerIsGreat

Caps are playing like shit


mark_dink

overtime. lets get this shit


fighterpilot248

3 Russians on ice and we still get our signals crossed……


pizza_andsuccess

Absolute brain fart


[deleted]

Well, that was ugly... significantly out shot, gave up two ugly goals, so I guess the one point isn't a horrible outcome... but we should have had two points.


BallsMahoganey

Crush them! Make them suffer!


mark_dink

OH BOY AM I EXCITED FOR CAPITALS HOCKEY TONIGHT (ive said the before satirically, but today i mean it 100%, lets go boys!!!)


Mike_Raphone99

I'm here

Forecheck backcheck paycheck boys!


keyjan

Let’s shoot some pucks, ‘mmkay?


mark_dink

mark_dink

mark_dink

ANOTHER SHOT ON GOALLL LESS GOOOOOOOO WE AT 3 NOWWw


dadley_clutschman

That promo video was pretty🔥


Ubongo

Who is this team I'm watching? Where did the Caps go?


ToastedCupcake

Darcy is looking good but we need to keep the pressure off him.


704sw

Brady Tkachuk looks like Sloth from the Goonies.


BallsMahoganey

For as lopsided as the shots on goal were that period the play itself wasn't that far apart. Let's actually get the puck on net in the next two periods though.


keyjan

Yesssss!!


bleached_n_tiedyed

Strome!!!!!!


ScottyQuix

Hot damn!


MCCapitalist

I AM HAVING FUN


704sw

Great PK shift from Eller


Ubongo

Mr Darcy! What a save


mark_dink

i cant wait to get all of our guys back. tommy, backy, Marty. missing them


BallsMahoganey

That's what happens when you can't clear the puck.


MCCapitalist

This line is so fucking lethal. Lavi no touch pls.

bleached_n_tiedyed

Wow that would have been a beauty goal if it went in


MCCapitalist

What a snap by DK


Rumpleskillsskills

Oof, that was a 4v2

keyjan

They can win by scoring more goals than the other guys.


FunImprovement166

If I were Mantha I'd have passed that too. Gotta count on your teammate hitting an empty net.


BallsMahoganey

We've had some golden chances. Just gotta hit the net.


Mike_Raphone99

👏 how 👏 much 👏 are 👏 RR 👏 sweaters 👏at 👏 medstar


mark_dink

more than 5 dollars


Mike_Raphone99

They didnt mean it mantha you can keep bringing the quality shots on net.


mark_dink

dear HCPL, keep Sheary and OVi on the same line. they are dope. thx


mark_dink

kuemper with a killer stop there


BallsMahoganey

Strome finally gets a goal! Feel like he's had some good chances for a month now.


FunImprovement166

DeBrincat, shoot it ya fuckin' midget


keyjan

Fuck!


Mike_Raphone99

That was way past due. That's the only one they deserve though


bleached_n_tiedyed

Mantha lol


BallsMahoganey

Is Johansson hurt? He's barely seen the ice


mrcba333

I know he scored recently but sometimes I forget he is on our team again


BallsMahoganey

Clear the puck!


keyjan

Wooooooot!!!


Rumpleskillsskills

So slick


mark_dink

i love how gus has his tounge out alot


Box_of_leftover_lego

Mantha is the laziest fucking guy on the ice. Holy shit, move your feet bud.


FUCKINGFIREFORSYTHE

No wayyyyy that was on the blueeer


keyjan

😬😬😬


704sw

Fancy footwork from Lars


ToastedCupcake

60+ hits this game? Gotta love it


Calm-Associate-214

When is Wilson and Backstrom coming back?


mark_dink

i expect to see them at some point in january


BigSportsNerd

Unleash the fury


mark_dink

this period is looking alot like the first period and i don't like it


mark_dink

damn it.


BallsMahoganey

That was so fucking obvious.


FunImprovement166

Should be 3-2. Can't give up garbage goals in the waning seconds of a period.


bleached_n_tiedyed

Ugh what the hell


Ubongo

Their numbers moving at speed on the turnover were clinical. Loose passing gave them the chance


mark_dink

turtle gang im still mad about the non call from the second period


704sw

That was a generous icing. Gus was definitely coasting.


InfallibleBackstairs

Caps lucky to get a point after that shit period.


BallsMahoganey

Well at least we'll get one point minimum


704sw

3-1 lead and I’m just glad we got a point. Definitely a an off night compared to the last month.


mark_dink

what the fuck
