McDonaugh blow. What other explanation is there... Boyle is on the ice at the end of the game instead of him...why???
 
Christ enough with Zucc. He's not friggin Wayne Gretzky.
 
I don't get the obsession with Boyle either. It's a major head scratcher.
 
Nope...not at all. Zucc is VERY important to the team, no one said he isn't, but suck it up buttercup. No excuses in the playoffs. We seemed to struggle against the Pens as well, with Zucc here.
 
on to game 4. Who knows, maybe Ovie is due to get passed the second round for once in his lifetime.
 
It's very simple. They need to win game four and get back to MSG with the series 2-2.
 
Our big stars have disappeared, this is where Nash should shine. He had a great year, actually surprised me with the way he played. Where is that guy now?
 
Bottom line Mess. 2-2 is what I thought from the start, now get it done. Reasonable chance that game decides the series.

Strud and Step are onto 2015-2016, but we'll all watch and root for a win to even the series up.
 
Had a bad feeling when they couldn't get anything on the board in the first period. That usually doesn't bode well for this team.
 
We are the better team had the better chances and miraculously couldn't put a couple away and they score from behind the net on a double skate deflection. Total bullshit. We are not losing the series to this team. Period. Mcd needs to play with as much energy and gusto as when he campaigned to be the captain of this club. He needs to play by example. He is not a small guy and ZERO HITS in 25 minutes is a disgrace. Get your head out of your ass McD and show up on defense and offense. Nash, I almost feel sorry for. The guy played a great game, had 7 shots on goal laid out orpik but just can't but a goal. AV needs to reunite miller on the stepan line with kreider and put st.louis back on the third line. He has been useless thus far on offense and is always a defensive liability. Yandle needs to play with klein and staal with boyle, Yandle and boyle is a time bomb waiting to explode. Now that I have had a chance to watch Yandle for awhile now with our team I don't see what the big deal is about him. Not good defensively. His offense is all passing to someone else and they do the scoring. He passes up so many shots now and has such a weak shot on the rare occasions he does shoot I notice other teams just backing off him playing the pass. Time to start shooting a little higher from the points and see if the cap d-men are still so anxious to get in front of some headshot. I repeat we are not losing this series to this caps team. And I don't care what the percentages are with teams losing game 3"s in a 7 game series. Thats another horseshit stat for losers.

I saw a change in his play towards the end of the season. Went into that weak glide mode after being a beast all season long. I just don't get it with him but I guess that's why he's not a playoff performer. He's going to have a rough time staying here if he lays another egg. He better come up with something soon.
 
I think we are and have been the better team as well, but if you don't score and don't win that means zero.

MSL I think is just about shot. I hate him with Brass and Nash and said it pre-game 1. Put him back with Hags and Hayes and be done with it.

As for Yandle, I am so down on him. I don't get why he is playing like crap, but he is. At least Boyle is getting some chances, has a goal, and is 38...what is Yandle's deal.
 
Mcdonagh has played like a guy protecting any injury pretty much all season.
 
What we should be afraid of right now is that I think deep down a lot of use are just in hope mode right now. Hopefully Nash. Hopefully St. Louis. Hopefully the power play. Hopefully Mcdonagh. Like I said you eventually run out of games with all the hoping.
Fuck hope... We win Wed and back in the driver seat
 
Again, people mention Yandle. Somebody tell me what the fark is wrong with Mcdonagh.
 
Just like we'd win both in DC and be up 3-1. All these words, from me as well, don't mean a damn thing. Homers will say we'll win. Negative fans will bail. All means NOTHING. Go play and go win and score some f'ing goals. That's it. The time for excuses is over. Win game 4 or we are just about done. That simple.
 
I actually think McDonagh has been fine. Still solid on D, O lacking this series. Not to his stud standards, but still a legit very good dman. Yandle/Boyle have been on ice for almost every Caps goal.
 
Eight playoffs games played so far and eight one goal games. Simply put they're constantly playing with no margin for error.
 
I would start by switching Miller and MSL and see how that works. MSL back with Hayes and Hags. Miller with some bang and the ability to win one puck battle up with Nash and Brass.
 
I think AV should juggle the lines..

Kreider Brassard Nash
Hags Stepan MSL
Miller Hayes Fast

Stepan has been just invisible.

Ouch... But your right my prediction went off the two skates... Im not giving up.. Even if they lose Wed I'd still believe we can win the series...
 
so me and strud are negative fans and everyone else is a homer. What kind of fan are you? chuck?
