GDT | Game 84 | also at Washington | Wednesday, April 23rd | 7:00 PM EDT

We deserved some puck luck in the 3rd period.

Anyway, Habs have too many passengers as evidenced by MSL going with 3 lines and 4 D during the last 20 mins
 
If Reinbacher can stay healthy for more than a week, the end of next year might be

Hutson/Guhle
Math/Rein
Strub/Carrier

Suzuki line dominated game 1 but capitals adjusted.

Habs have been better at home all season so it will help.

Agreed that the habs needed some bounces to advance.

Laine. Well. He is a gadget player. But he is probably also playing on one leg.

i disagree on this one, Suzuki line adjusted and they dominated in the 3rd..
 
They dominated the 3rd because the Caps went to the prevent defense. But how many second chance opportunities did the Habs get? Most of their shots were of the "one and done" variety.

Well in game 1 we out scored the Caps 2-0 in the 3rd on 14 shots.. last night we out shot the Caps in the 3rd 14-5 and had some great looks, Thompson made 2-3 big saves that could of turned the game around.. I stand by what i said , we were the better team in the 3rd period in both games.
 
From hairnova re game 1

xGF after two:

Evans' line: 73.17%
Suzuki's line: 63.47%
Dvorak's line: 12.83%
Newhook's line: 3.79%

But absolute shit in the first 2 periods of both games.

In both games we started to dominate once we started opening up the game. I think we need to be more aggressive earlier in the game even if it means trading chances, otherwise Caps are more than happy to forecheck us into oblivion.

Speed kills their forecheck game. Need to replace 58 and 92 with 91 and 72. More speed.

Matheson can play the off side. RHD is not a reason to keep Savard.

I agree we were the better team in the 3rd, but the game is 60 minutes long. You can't just show up for the last 20 and hope to pull off a miracle.

not at all, we were pretty even in the first last night, it was about a 5 minute stretch where the Capitals got the lucky goal off Savard and then the rebound goal where we panicked.

After Dvorak scored, our next shift was good and we were in the Caps' zone. But after that we got caved for the rest of the period and blew the lead.
