You can't clear the puck past both blue lines into the area behind the goalie without it touching another player unless on power plays

I'm sure you know this, but for anyone who may not know much about hockey - icing is allowed when the other team is on the power play, and you're on the penalty kill. I thought the above could be a little confusing.

It wasn't an unreasonable prediction. The Caps won in their building 6-0 in Game 5.

Game 7 starting out looking the same as game five too. Early 2-0 lead that could've easily been 4-0 before the second period started. Canes hung in and kept pushing till Washington's legs gave out and got a win.

Caps went up 2-0 in every home game that series. Glad we won but need to be much better on the road against the Isles.

Yea age isn't going to suddenly smash the isles in the face like it did the Caps. Going have to get a game in NY to have a chance of winning the series.

Yeah, it's awesome that the Canes pulled it out. I still can't believe they got it done. I'll admit I had the Caps in 4. I thought maybe the Canes could squeak one out at home, but the Caps just looked better than the Canes all season until Game 3. They had two games against each other in the last 2 weeks of the season, when we were pushing for a playoff spot. First the Caps destroyed us in DC, then edged us in Raleigh. It's incredible what the Canes did.

    • lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

    • Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
