I absolutely hate Penguins. By far the dirtiest team in the league. |
First game on Thursday or Friday?? |
Makes sense to hate them as a Caps fan, but it's kind of absurd to call them the dirtiest team in the league. |
I would characterize the Penguins more as cheap than dirty. (Eg. Bonino faking a high stick at the end of game 6 last year) Yes, I hate the Pens, but it is not so much because they beat us in the playoffs (honest), it is because of their cheap style of play. |
Yes, f'klng pens... and they OWN the refs. WTF! |
F$ck, f$ck, f$ck...3 goals in 4 shots in 4 min?? Are you kidding me?!?! |
I'm so pissed. How did they give up 3 goals like that? This sucks. |
Nothing you can do on the Hornquist deflection. So many things Holtby could have done differently on the Guentzel goal. Don't shovel the puck back from where it came. Get square, come out to challenge. And Ovie had to stop the puck from getting through to Crosby on the cross ice pass - he messed up Holtby's timing with his flail.
That being said, I predict this thing will go seven. |
Go Caps! Good win today!! |
They looked really good. But, not getting my hopes up. Just going to hope they keep playing like they did today. |
I am concerned about Wilson getting a suspension over the hit on Dumoulin. Wilson's been playing great. I hope he doesn't get one. |

That's why I like Skins'. At least they are consistently terrible thanks to Danny boy. |
I love, love Wilson. He plays hard (and is HOT). But, he sometimes lacks self-control (drew some stupid penalties in the first round by scrapping unnecessarily). And, he's a bit of a hot head. I've watched the clip a few times now. I'm not entirely sure he doesn't deserve something for that hit. And it pains me to say it. I think he aimed to deliver a bit of extra pain -though not an injury- on the hit (and maybe just did it a bit too hard/high or didn't count on sandwiching the guy between him and Ovi, which is what happened). It's a close one. |
