Harbingers

And they finally call a to many men on the ice on the rags. They’ve had at least half a dozen “missed” over the course of 2 games.

Should probably switch over to that game. Rags Caps is boring AF.

One of these times the refs are going to have to call too many men on the ice on the rags. That’s basic poo.

Just tuned in for the goal. Don’t know if they look good or if the rags look sluggish or both. Washington is jumping for sure.

Caps take an early lead. Rags look sluggish.

The most I know is that it feels like the NBA has less parity the more the playoffs advance. Where as the NHL is the opposite in my opinion. Don’t know if that’s actually accurate but it seems to me like higher ranked NBA teams always win.

5 weeks for a knee before, comes back and reinjures/aggravates it? I think it’s probably surgery for him. Judging by what I saw of Pesce I think it’s probably surgery for him too unfortunately.

Not what I expected to be honest.

He’s playing through a knee. I don’t know if he’ll be back for a while…

Ya I don’t know can’t decide on that one. Don’t know enough about basketball these days.

How you feeling about Milwaukee today?

Demko is out. Maybe the whole series.

Doubt fast plays. All signs point to TDA in. Personally, I’d go Andersen 3 Pyotr 4 or Pyotr both away games.

Guenz - Aho - Svech(Enforcer) Necas - KK(Enforcer) - TT Martinook(Enforcer) - Staal(Shutdown) - Jarvis Noesen(Enforcer) - Kuz - Drury(fighter) Slavin - Burns(Shut downs) Skjei - TDA(Enforcer) Orlov(Shut down) - Chatty(Scraper) Seems like Rod has the enforcing pretty well distributed right now in anticipation of this. I think TDA will direct draw into Skjei’s line. But he could push chatty up and pair orlov with TDA. I’d prefer direct draw in though.

Also did anyone else notice Aho sitting on Martin as retribution for last year? That poo was funny.

No practice today. I assume we travel and it’s a practice day up there tomorrow.

If we didn’t need a goon for the rest of this series I’d say play morrow. I really liked morrow’s passing in the blues game. Here’s to hoping you are right though cause I don’t think we have another choice.

For being a defensive team the Kings seem like a sieve…

Ya the way he twisted. Oof. I do not trust TDA. Especially with the minutes he got last time he replaced someone.

This is why you don’t sit back and play defense when you have a 3 point lead in the playoffs.

It’s non-contact… they showed the replay once(during the third) on the canes broadcast not sure about national so it’s hard to tell what exactly but he was turning a puck hit his foot, foot hit a divet or something and something happened in his knee/lower leg area.

This KK moment is epic.

They shouldn’t have sat back for 2 periods.

Not sounding good for Pesce. I’m really hoping it wasn’t ACL…

Jeebus.
