Caps won and tied the series..big deal

Bruins in 6.

Refs did blow those calls but the Bruins had the entire 3rd to tie and win and came up empty. Bruins will be beasts on Saturday.

 

[chy1127]

Fuck, they changes the picture. I woman had a sign. "I wish I only got 2 minutes for hooking." Seguin was skating by and cracking up. Epic failure on my part!

Not sure what you're talking about b/c I had been told by several SportsHoopla posters that the reffing in this series has been even.

Thomas not pumping Holtby's tires


Thomas wants to see better chances; Ovechkin gets benched

"We got a lot of shots, but as far as high-quality scoring chances [go], I wouldn't say that we got a lot of those," said Bruins goaltender Tim Thomas.

Just pointing out that albeit those 2 calls resulted in PP goals the Bruins still should have been able to win that game. They did not so Grats to the Caps.

Your posting in this again..good

Again, our defense is largely responsible for that.

And I woulnd't say OV was benched. Hunter has kept his minutes down (esp. in the 3rd) in close games basically since he came in.

 

[SLY]

Or because OV was running around like a chicken with his head cut off more worried about trying to lay a hit than scoring a goal. Works for me.

 

[ritari330]

He did settle down though. He had/set up 3 or 4 scoring chances in like a 5 minute spand in the 2nd.

 

[BF4L]

The 2nd belonged to the Caps for sure.

I still do not think that the Caps can beat the Bruins in a 7 game series. Holtby has been great but I mentioned way earlier that he has been very lucky as well. He gives up a lot of rebounds and the Bruins have not done a good job or getting to them. That may be a good Caps defense but sooner or later that will hurt ya.

Word out of Bruins practice today is that Julien has shook up the lines. Demoting Marchand to 4th line.

Jay Beagle is keeping a diary for Caps Insider this year. I always love reading these type of things. It really personalize the guys, so I figured that I would share. Bruins fans may even like it:

I have never played cribbage, BTW but have heard that it is addicting.

If the Bruins would have scored, the league says it would not have counted. That would have been interesting.

Wasn't there a similar situation in a game this year?

Problem is, the reffing has been shaky, but the Bruins haven't helped themselves on the PP despite having the edge in PM's. Winning the cup 2 years in a row with a bad PP is a long shot at best.

 

[apachef4]

Refs suck. Refs suck for all teams. Refs will always suck. Let's move on and enjoy good playoff hockey.

Games 5 and 6 are 24 hours apart, 3 PM start for both games on NBC

Lmao. No way that is OV... way too fit.
