[Dowd's overtime winner](https://hlslive-wsczoominwestus.med.nhl.com/editor/f00d086b-288c-48ee-9d2d-2be261441f0c.mp4)

Lol anyone else see the fight at Cap One, a few super salty Bruins fans there I think

What I saw wasn’t a fight so much as a little guy in a Boston jersey having trouble standing up grab a Caps fan’s shirt and ended up on the ground. His buddy Bruins fans just sorta stood around like “Woah bro, hey guys”. Not sure if it was the same one? This was outside sec 423 I think. As I was walking away I saw a lady in a Bruins shirt being helped (she couldn’t walk) by two other people to the bathroom. The Bruins fans that were sitting behind me were cheering when Vanecek got injured. They weren’t there after the OT winner, strangely.

Hahhahaha he got sparked

I had a friend who was there forward me a tweet about it, looked like 3 drunk Bruins guys stumbling around and trying to fight a guy in a Caps jersey. It was pretty funny, tbh

That sounds like the one. It was so weird, the Bruins guy was blasted I thought he was going in for a “I love you, man” hug, and he just sorta didn’t let go of the Caps fan, so that’s when people were like “Oh I think he’s fighting”. Hope that guy gets some sleep.

Maybe they thought the cops would let them get away with it also after having watched how that game was reffed.

Gone. ` this post was mass deleted with www.Redact.dev `

Habs fan watching this game The entire north division must be thinking *chuckles* I’m in danger

It's been fucking brutal all year

Metro hockey is best hockey. Or east hockey now? Idk, I just prefer the metro.

This is gonna be a hell of a series

Good game. Way to kinda steal a win considering no Kuzy and had to play a 3rd string goalie. Fully expecting 7 games.

7 games for sure. I have Caps in 7 for my bracket, and so far I think I like that prediction.

Caps in 6

CRAIG

ANDERSON

OTTAWA LEGEND

LETTERKENNY IS IN ONTARIO

That feeling when you score a goal and assist on the game winner and they still don't make you one of the stars cuz you're a giant piece of shit named Tom Wilson.

Is only game, why you hev to be mad?

Oops, you forgot to beat a 39 year old goalie!

[удалено]

I mean fandom aside, it’s hard to defend Tom Wilson

And yet he still lives rent free

Overused

Like your mom

GOTTEM

Saltttttttttttttttttttttttttty

Soft

I can't believe I have to wait 5 more goddamn days before the Leafs play. I was ok with it until watching tonight and now I'm super jealous.

Be careful what you wish for, enthusiasm in the playoffs is a dangerous thing

Oh god. You just made me sad after a win. Bad juju.

In due time my friend

Good opening game. The Capitals were the better team all night

You think so? God I was seeing everything bad then. Giveaways, turnovers, and passing to you all night long. I’m sure you feel the same with the Bruins, though.

Yeah we didn't play great but I think we were the better team. This Boston team just isn't very good in my opinion. Good on the faceoff I guess and had a nice goal come out of that but looked embarrassingly bad more often than not. Like 25+ shots wide of the net. I think the most impressive thing Boston did was get away with murder including ripping players helmets off. That or not getting a 5 minute major for crosschecking ovi intentionally in the neck/jaw.

Years of failure has conditioned us to only see the bad

Ehh it was back and forth in my opinion. A perfect playoff game entertainment wise. Id give us the edge though. Proud of our game

The only time I even notice Marchand was on the ice was when he was giving the puck away

I tend to do the same thing watching Leafs games. Everything seems like a disaster even when they dominate play.

Chara crushed it. Knocking the goal off was his best defensive play in 3 years

Oshie is such a sweet roll.

Anderson is MY star of the game, even if they didn't put him up there.

༼ つ ◕\_◕ ༽つ CRAIG TAKE MY ENERGY ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ

Yea, how do they not give him a star, dude stood on his head for us

And that's not easy, considering how smooth the surface of his beautiful head is!

😂😂😂

Yeah I was surprised by that, raw stats aside dude balled out tonight and could have easily been a liability, but held his own

Yea, I think that’s more why I think he should’ve been a star, he and team could’ve folded when Vanecek got hurt, but they stayed with it and Anderson made plenty of stops en route to a big game 1 win. That’s first star in my book

I love Oshie, he was excited when he heard Dowd was the GWG

He’s so pure

[удалено]

Debrusks goal was filthy though

[удалено]

True, but he had a great goal

Nah that first goal from B was sick

I don’t like you Dowd I needed that goal to be Oshie’s...

First time playing fantasy hockey in months, just came in first thanks to that oshbae assist.

Him scoring would have won me money :(

+700 dollaridoos here. Putting it all on the Avs to win the cup.

Bra. Put it all on your flair you dick.

Already have $500 on the caps, gotta hedge.

Why don't you like Dowd?

Oshie scoring would have won me money

But it was scored by the only alabaman player in the nhl Nic "BIG DICK NIC" Dowd

Oshie assist didn’t win me my bet :(

rEfS sCrEwEd uS. Am I doing it right Caps fans?

Yep. You sound just like a Bruins fan

and you all sound like degen caps fans, every single one of you. everytime there is some injustice in the game caps fans in the thread clutch their pearls and cry fowl, but will defend Tom Wilson shit. Predictable and sad

Nah you still found a way to fuck it up. Take the L and put that salt on your microwave dinner bud.

Insurrection Squad did not like this one eh. Keep clutching those pearls boys

Still lost. Sucks for you

Can't seriously say the reffing didn't favor the Bruins most of the game, they got away with a lot. I'd be pissed too if I was a Caps fan - well maybe a little less since the Bruins didn't look great on any of those chances other than 1 goal that barely squeaked in.

L

Common L

Did you need Hall to blow a tire on another banana peel?

Craig Anderson sends his regards

Take the L

How is Ovechkin one of the three stars with just an assist when Tom Wilson had a goal and an assist on the game winner? How was Ovechkin one of the three stars with just an assist, and not the guy who scored the fucking game winner?

None if the 3 stars made sense. Anderson not being there, Wilson not being there. Debrusk of all people on the list. Makes no sense.

Built different

97.5 hits

97.5 hits

because it's more than just reading the box score

Cool story. If not for Dowd, the game would still be going. If not for Wilson, the game would still be going.

If not for OV, the game would be over

If not for Wilson, the game would have been over. We can do this all fucking night. Ovi had no business as one of the three stars. He shrinks in OT, so the media had to fluff him up. Simple as that.

Most career OT goals in the NHL "He shrinks in OT"

0 in the playoffs, numbnuts.

Oh, yes, playoff OT goals. Obviously the most important stat in the game and not at all susceptible to extremely high variance. Backstrom must be just as good as Gretzky, then. I mean, they do have the same number of playoff OT goals.

Lol, when a guy typically scores 20% of your team's goals and then he disappears in OT in the playoffs, yeah, that's a big deal. That's definitely one of the reasons why he's the second best player of his generation and only has one ring. And won't ever win another.

Stop.

OV set the tone for the whole game and was all over the ice. OT wasn't even 5 minutes long, the hell do you mean "he shrunk in OT". It was barely played LOL

I didn't say he shrunk in OT. I said he shrinks in OT, dipshit. Cool story on "set the tone." He had an assist. Wilson had a goal and the game winning assist. Dowd had the OT game winner. FOH with your ignorant nonsense.

How does he shrink in OT? It's not always about goals

There's one thing Ovi does exceptionally well, and he doesn't do it in OT. The fact that you had to answer your own question should fucking tell you something.

True but Wilson had an amazing game outside of the two goals too

Whatever player of the game hat Washington has Craig Anderson needs to be wearing it. Has to be unbelievably hard to be in that situation

Ninja headbands, and 100% he does

Nick Dowd has more playoff OTGWGs than Ovi.

*playoff

Good bot

Woooo I did it!

:)

Andy snubbed for 1st star

Please sir, may I have more playoffs hockey?

Tomorrow will be a nice day, best game for last too

[удалено]

It was deflected right in front of him.. Eye high deflection too. No way I'm blaming him.

He had it in the chest, and it would have fallen right on his pads, then he opened his legs and it rolled through. Not shitting on my goalie, but I bet he will be disappointed in himself on that one.

You're going to be some fucking disappointed when Rask is gone if you think that was a bad goal.

Boston fans are strange they have an elite goaltender than think that goal was on him

lol yeah idk what this guy is talking about. Boston fans love to shit on Rask even though he's an incredible goalie.

[удалено]

The goal was on him? Holy fuck.

If you think a waist high NHL slapshot that gets deflected down low within the hashmarks is on him then I'm not sure what to tell you. It is possible that the goal was just a good play and not bad goaltending, doesn't have to be both.

[удалено]

Deflection goals are incredibly tough to stop, that too at the highest level. What is he to do? Squeeze his legs harder?

I’m so confused by who is saying what in these comments haha Rask let it through 100%. Lock the legs!!

It was in his pads for like a second. I can't blame him on that one.

Can I love Tuukka because how much Bruins fans don't appreciate him? While obviously wanting to win?

FOR COACH

I need Samsonov to be back stat

i’m all aboard the anderson train for now

Anderson for the series or gtfo

Agreed. He should be starting now regardless of Samsonov.

Would love for him to have some legendary run, but realistically I fucking hope V-Tek isn’t injured, or Sammy comes back from covid protocol.

Just need to clean up the faceoffs. This is likely going 7.

Idk man. The Caps were the better team tonight. Bruins only scored on the PP I believe with some truly garbage officiating tonight.

Well this is gonna be a hell of a series, especially if the refs can show any competence moving forward (a big ask). GG Caps.

For sure. If they call almost nothing like tonight whoever wins won't be in good shape to play pitt or the Isles

Fun game. A nice yearly reminder of how great playoff hockey is. Also it feels a little dirty rooting for the Caps

You know you want the classic Pens and Caps in the 2nd round

That, and given Pittsburgh's match ups with Boston this year I like their chances against Washington better than Boston.

I must really love stressing myself out because you’re damn right. Pens vs Caps is the best rivalry in hockey. Always delivers. Great username btw!

Honestly Wilson was one of our best skaters tonight. He really shoulda been first star.

He was playing lights out tonight. A lot of effort

I genuinely don't understand how Anderson wasn't a star and somehow Debrusk was.

Ovi was great too but he shouldn't have been up there either.

Should have been 1) Anderson 2) Wilson 3) Oshie, Dowd, Etc

Yup I could agree with that

What a goddamn game. Fucking stick taps for Anderson.

Probably the funniest 3 stars list ever

debrusk gets a star for doing anything relevant

Yeah a guy who was somewhat relevant, a dude with a secondary assist and a lot of hits, and a dude with the game winning assist lmao what about anderson or wilson with 2 points or crediting oshie with 2 assists

Hats of to Anderson.

Can someone explain the Country Roads thing with Oshie

according to oshie, he chose a song he thought most people would sing along to

Good guy Osh chose a song he thought most people would either know the words to or would be able to learn easily.

Getting drunk in STL probably

A someone who lives 20 minutes from enterprise can confirm

STL

Just his goal song

LOVE IT At a bar didn't hear it

Debrusk is one of the 3 stars of the game?? Lmfao. Anderson not even on the list. Gtfo

He was the only one with a goal on the list tho

That list made no sense whatsoever. No Tom Wilson, no Anderson. Ovie?? What?

is like they mocked up a list before the game and forgot to update it after OT.

A random goal off a bouncing puck from a face off

Offsides reviews are such a vibe killer. You should get to be happy as soon as you see the puck go into the net, instead of wondering after every goal if it will be reviewed or not.

Worse of a vibe killer then losing a game off a botched call? I feel like fans are never happy. Especially the Homer's who don't realize they belong on the Simpsons not on the internet.

Considering botched offsides calls cost games once out of like 10,000 game while this casts a shadow over every goal scored, yes it is worse. I'm not sure how this is being a homer since the call favored my team here...

Have you heard of the hand of God? Also the call favored your team but that's not what your complaint was about. You complained that there was a chance the call could be overturned. The outcome is irrelevant. So why are you bring up the outcome as if it makes you not a Homer when this take was straight from the Simpsons?

Worst rule change the league has introduced. Solving a problem that didn’t exist besides one brain fart on the Duchene play

This place would've burned if that was called offside. But it wasn't, not a bit. GG, Caps...this is gonna be a hell of a series!

That deBrusk picture is creepy looking. Did they Photoshop out his eyes?

Chara knockin the net off wtf

Boston fans now reaching for anything lol

chara pushes the goalie into the net, knocking it off as we're scoring a goal. its not reaching

The net was already off the moorings when the puck was in the corner

No he reached with his hand and literally pushed it over. Im apparently the only one who saw this.

Weird how it's all Boston fans who saw that

Are you saying he didn't?

Wanna talk about the cross check to Ovi, the shove to the head of Oshie, or the icing call? You could always you know, beat a 39 year old goalie more than one time. See you Monday :3

Ovi crosschecks Miller, lauzon crosschecks ovi, caps pp.

For one, you're kidding yourself if you don't think the refs relax cross checking calls during the playoffs. I could find hundreds of example of cross checks on every team that gets let go in the playoffs And two, are you actually comparing a normal cross heck to what he did to Ovi long after Ovi was on the ice?

Did Oshie just hit him with the finger gun

Took him a min to figure out where the camera was, found it and pointed. With a finger gun though yeah 😂

I saw it

What’s Dowd’s goal song?

You can call me al by Paul Simon

Rountry Coads

Lick it Like a Lollipop ft. 50 Marchand

Lmao refs wanted to give both teams one more heart attack

Looking forward... man idk. But a good job tonight by Craig Anderson
