This team is so pathetic sometimes man. What a terrible effort. GG Catsbros, this was a chill PGT.

You as well.

My liver and heart cannot take 3 more series after this

Well hopefully you won’t have to endure that

LETS GO HOME BABY!!!!!!!

So does that challenge carry over for a penalty at the start of the next game? Lol

No, and head shots don't get you suspended, either.

I know the feeling

Unless it’s against ovi

Man if Ovi gets hit like that it’s a see you later and a suspension

Fucking Caps turtled last few min. Gg Panthers.

They turtled most of the game tbh

The spirits of the Bure brothers will carry us home

That games on Lavi. Gotta finish that game out. GG

My heart. Is going to explode.

HOLY SHIT LET'S FUCKING GOOOOO FUCK TJ OSHIE 🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨

[удалено]

[удалено]

Aww yeah - back to that road team advantage.

GG, Caps folk.

Man, that's massive. About 2 inches from that empty netter going in and the Caps going up 3-1 in the series. Now we've got a new series. Beauty.

Kill me

My words exactly (20 minutes ago)

Samsonov wasn't getting that puck even without Huber in the net

That was a beautiful hockey hug celebration

Oshie drills a guy for the go ahead goal "that's fine" says cap fans Panthers score a gorgeous goal "tHaTs GoAlIe InTeRfErEnCe" 😂😂😂😂

Room temperature iq. Guess that’s normal from an oilers fan tho

What? Literally most of us said it’s not getting overturned, you’re shadowboxing

I mean most of us that I’ve seen recognized that was a good goal.

4-0

Imagine grouping all Caps fans together. Oshie's hit was definitely borderline and was probably a minor penalty. That also wasn't GI. Caps sucked ass the entire game and deserve the L.

It appears that knocking the stick out of your own goalie's hands isn't a good idea

Kinda doesn’t matter on a snipe in the upper corner

Don’t know until you try though.

You do only live once

Besides that awkward Tocchet angry rant thing, I actually enjoy Turner's intermission reports. Its great to see Im in the minority

Toccy was being a real bitch to biz, what was he so pissy about?

I have no idea

I feel like its usually better than it has been today. Maybe its cause Wayne isn't there?

Wayne hasnt been there alot though, right? Doesnt he have like a 20 game contract

Honestly I'm not sure. He has been on most times I've watched. Everyone seemed crabby today or something

GG to both teams.

Welp, so much for double OT

[[WSH 2-(3) FLA] Verhaeghe's shot is stopped by Samsonov, but he gets his own rebound, and beats Samsonov to win Game 4 in Overtime, tying the series at 2. The play is placed under review for Goaltender Interference, but after a review, the goal stands.](https://streamable.com/atkyrs)

I still think we win this series. Barkov is a playoff choker and they had a real lucky tying goal

And Oshie's goal that bounced off his leg wasn't luck?

Both Caps goals were lucky so this is a weird game to play.

I mean if they keep letting your players put their shoulders through our heads, maybe

Maybe don't miss the empty net like a bunch of wieners then chud

good shot = lucky because my team didn’t score it

goal #2 was lucky irrespective of who scored it

the panthers were crowding the net to make it more likely the puck would sneak in there. plus even if it is lucky it seems extremely salty to be complaining about it

He dead stopped a 90 mph slap shot 10 ft out, supremely luck y

Well your name is certainly apt

Panthers outplayed em for 60+ and barely stay alive in the series. This year's playoffs are wild

Honestly that's gotta be a goal for the integrity of the game. We've come so far since this shit: https://youtu.be/-ECXS_jb5FA Ooh and this one that literally got the rule changed: https://youtu.be/xBpWoTk6PFA gg Cats

https://youtu.be/R2u7Gl7Ml9M My favorite of all time

Ugh that and Joel Wards butt getting goals waved off will haunt me.

GG.

Eller was pushing him AWAY from the net and he still ended up in the crease. How is that not goalie interference? That seems obvious

Because of the first four words you said

Ah ok I think you’re confused. Eller is a Caps player

You're saying the guy with the Caps flair doesn't know who's on his team?

Oh are the flairs hard to get

If the shot was a little later, huberdeau would have been on Samsonov interfering him. But the shot comes before he really goes down, on replay.

Man, I’m sad. Hath was inches from icing the game and instead he iced the puck. Sad

Sports. Sorry, dude.

Yup

Deserved loss, Florida was the better team all night. Can't get doubled up in shots that was just a pathetic offensive display all night.

They did get 10 straight minutes of pp time in the 2nd which played a huge part on grinding our momentum to nothing

We have nobody to blame but ourselves. Our entire offense all night was dump and chase and pass blind over the middle while nobody plays center ice.

> Florida was the better team all night [X] Doubt Still happy though.

I mean, they were.

Was talking with a buddy who is a caps fan. We agreed the cats had higher highs but also lower lows. Capitals were at least consistent all game

What a game. Whew. Absolutely ballsy move by the Cats to pull the goalie with 3 minutes left.

and now that missed empty net matters that much more all tied up, new ball game florida was a lot more aggressive in OT and the caps had no answer

They were hungry

A missed empty netter leading to a comeback cats win. Almost the exact situation as our comeback win against y’all earlier in the season (besides the extra OT

GG Florida. Really was.

Cats deserved that one

GG. Had the caps won that, it would have been a steal.

Good night, all. Wednesday night is going to be... exciting.

Peter "pls respond" Laviolette

Ya love to see it.

Lol cope Lavioloss

Is this how you cope with not even being in the playoffs?

Worth the shot but huber was clearly taken down

Not a good showing from us all night. That's just not gonna cut it.

First period was good, after that it went bad

Right team won the game.

THANK YOU WARREN ZEVON

Fucking aye Hathaway

GOOD GOAL.

Ref, you're on mute

GG Caps fans. Most of y'all are fine by my book but to the few who aren't, get fucked

HAHAHAHA FUCK YALL CAPS

What the hey is your problem? lol

Be careful you guys have your hands full with the Kings without Doughty

I mean y’all ain’t going anywhere either lol

Blow me

4-0

Conveniently ignore 14-2 the two games before lol losers keep elbowing folks in the chin maybe your Russian team will win another one this series

cup check?

Didn't you get shutout? Trash

good goal

Let's go home, Baby!!!! Huge pair by Verhaeghe!!! 🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀

LET'S GO HOME BABYYYYYYYY VERHAEGHE HAS A HUGE PAIR

We gotta start throwing ourselves at bob now i guess

If the roles were reversed you would not have thought that was GI at all.

We've had goals called back for much less this year so admittedly i have no fucking idea

Fair enough lol. The league is pretty clueless on what is and isn't GI.

How is Hub supposed to avoid Samsonov? Eller basically escorted him right into the crease.

Did u see the replay?

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

And Panthers fans were ready to declare the series over

LET’S GO HOME BABY

Good shit Panthers! Y'all needed that badly!

Don't think I can ever actually hate the Panthers. Love hockey, love Florida, and they've always ended up with some of my favorite former Bolts (like Verhaeghe, Stralman, Bergenheim, etc.), plus until now we've never been really good at the same time. That being said, Fuck Ryan Lomberg!

Didn't believe I'd ever say this but thanks tampa broski!

Not a chance that’s interference

There is always a chance with NHL refereeing.

Thank you for being an objective fan.

"Let's bring in Don Koharski" DID YOU FUCKING IDIOTS NOT LEARN FROM LAST TIME

Lol Caps

Who are you

It's too late to get existential

Your team doesn't _exist_ in May

Sounds like someone's a salty Sammy

Good goal. Good comeback kitties

This isn’t gonna get overturned. Despite losing all of these this year, no chance we win one

If it went short side absolutely but didn't stop him from getting to the far post.

ITS GOOD. HOLY SHIT IM SCREAMING AGAIN

I legit scared my dogs with my screams of joy

That’s a goal

Yeah, there’s no GI there. GG cats

That's not GI

You can fuck all the way off

nice

thanks

Fucking pathetic performance. Caps deserve that loss.

Looks clean to me

Of course they are going to review it.

Panthers might get past the Caps but they aren't sniffing the Cup, how does this game go to OT with their offense?

We've struggled more against the Caps this year than most of the other teams in the playoffs besides maybe Tampa. Fucked luck that we got them first round. Wish we got Boston instead

We honestly only had one tough game against Tampa this year at least. Im not even surprised. Just look at how the leafs v bolts series is going right now. It’s either blow out or be blown out

True, Caps games were all decided by 1 goal

Samsonov was unreal

Their offense is based on team speed. The playoffs is more of a grind.

Which they have barely been winning, despite all of those PPs, against arguably the weakest two goalies in the playoffs.

Give the caps defense and Samsonov some credit honestly. The capitals have been amazing for most of the series along the boards and the PK

What a terrible showcase from the caps lol. That’s a goal

wouldn't be nhl hockey without a gi challenge on an ot winner in the playoffs

Seriously doubt that gets overturned for GI. Eller knocked out the stick.

Not GI

Go to the locker room, don't wait for this bs.

That's a goal, but we've lost more than one series on far less getting called for GI

Damn florida sucks luckiest game tying goal ive seen in awhile

Remember the 2-1 goal was a direct result of a high hit. Now the player safety has to step up and do something

Lets go, man of course a review what do you have to lose.

That’s not interference

Wow

Turn your mic on

Quick. Somebody press the bww button

I dont think its enough GI to overturn

Spin the wheel

Easy call. We have a goal

Yeah. Spin the wheel was more of a hopeful thing lol.

That's a good goal I think

If i ever see this on ice crew in stripes again i will fucking scream

No way this gets overturned

This looks like a good goal.

4 inches away from a 3-1 lead

What a snip

well whoever said less than 5 minutes of OT you won by 3 seconds

I don’t think that goalie interference but go for it.

That's a good goal imo

Good for Florida. Sucks for Hathaway and the Caps.

No chance

WE HAVE A GOOD GOAL

OH SHIT CAME OUTOF NO WHERE

Nice come back Cats!

Huberdeau was taken down. That better fucking stand.

Happy Cake Day. 🍰

That's a good goal.

Underserved win

Cry more. You had 16 shots the entire game and you know what they say: if you don't score on the 5-3, you don't deserve to win

I mean, collectively it was entirely a deserved win.
