merchman567 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2009 So here it is... our final meeting with the capitals. Ovechkins head is as big as ever after he scored his 50th goal. I look for them to come out shooting like crazy in this one. We need to play great defense and have alot better puck control. We CAN NOT turn the puck over in our own zone and think we can win this one. We need this win just as bad as we needed lastnight. Go Canes! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dexterpyro 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2009 We need this win it would go a long way it securing our playoff berth...We need to attack the goal but not get out of position on defense with the Caps speed and passing.... GO CANES!!!!!!!!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carpanfan96 1,458 Report post Posted March 21, 2009 Must win, Right now we are in 6th place after last night. We stay there we get the caps in round one......(The NHL would love that, a Rivalry game in the first round between division foes.) It would be a good series for sure.

merchman567 0 Report post Posted March 22, 2009 What a great game. I touched upon this the other night, but I am really begin to take notice to Joni Ptikanen. His game is just on. He plays the puck so well on defense. Great to see him get that point. Also did you notice that 3 of our 4 points tonight were scored by our defense??? Pitkanen,Babchuck, and Corvo. That by the way has to be the longest shot I have seen. Its great to have a defense that can score. I will be watching the Florida feed monday night of our game on center ice. Huge help tonight by columbus and toronto, and yet buffalo couldnt beat the rangers... pitty. Soo close... keep it up... Go Canes! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carpanfan96 1,458 Report post Posted March 22, 2009 That goal was crazy I was jumping up and down while it was skidding across the ice... It's exciting to be in the playoff mix and to be playing well I still remember attending games in Greensboro when the rink was sometimes half empty Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

merchman567 0 Report post Posted March 22, 2009 We just need this mentality for the rest of the season. Good news is we dont have to worry about a jammed pack schedule. Bad news means we have to be as good as it gets we cant have a bad game. Plus other teams have to loose. I like our chances but Im not going to buy my playoff tickets just yet.
