Nice, thanks Ritari. Ovechkin is really working on 2 lines?

And Poti is healthy?!? I thought he was done.

It'll probably be rotated around but the 7 D-men are because of Poti's health

 

[elocomotive]

Good call. Nice start!

 

[ritari330]

I thought he was done too before I saw stuff about his recovery almost out of nowhere

 

[apachef4]

Nice early PP for the Caps.

 

[elocomotive]

Good chances there, especially at the end of the PP.

 

[elocomotive]

TB playing sloppy.

 

[apachef4]

Another Caps PP.

 

[elocomotive]

Lindback looks sharp.

So do OV's one timers!

 

[ritari330]

I like the new look of the PP.

Edit: still needs more traffic in front of the net.

Good opportunities for sure. I'd like to see a little more movement though.

How long is Laich supposed to be out for?

 

[ritari330]

How long is Laich supposed to be out for?

A week or two I think.

 

[hokiehi21]

Ughhh... took them 7 minutes to get a shot, but it's a goal.
