(related note - it's nice we don't do that on here and that everyone is largely respectful and act like adults towards each other)

You guys make our mod jobs so easy, so thanks.

This reminds me of a Louis CK standup bit about people driving, where we have no problem giving someone else the finger and telling them to fucking die while we would never ever do that to someone face-to-face, or something like that. It brings out the worst in people.

Hey asshole! Suck a bag of dicks!

"F****t"!" - Isles fans

Don't mess with the Cal

JFC! Caps D allowed Buttercup to walk right in the slot for that one.

Gotta love hockey players!

I don't understand what about that hit was a penalty. Good, clean hit from Wilson - didn't leave his skates, didn't accelerate for charging.

That's a bullshit call. At least Vis is down for a legitimate reason for once. He got leveled.

It looked like charging live. That's the only reason why.

Additionally, Wilson has gotten himself a bit of a reputation, so there's that..

Sad thing is the Caps are playing well, but have spent most of the period on the PK so far.

Fair point. He got that on the previous call, you can't give questionable rep calls twice in a row.

 

[elocomotive]

On the plus side, when you don't take advantage of opportunities like that... you tend to lose games.

3 straight kills, now let's go boys!

 

[elocomotive]

Intense period of hockey. Have a good feeling about the 3rd.

 

[Cobiemonster]

I would have to think after all these missed opportunities by the Isles that eventually the Caps get a power play in the third and take advantage of it - we'll see though

 

[ritari330]

Big period upcoming. C'mon Caps!

 

[elocomotive]

Good work, Beags. Let's show these guys how a PP works.

 

[elocomotive]

Oh, Mojo...

You had it. What a pass from OV.
