Certainly looking like 3 shutouts in a row for Thompson. That's 3 shutouts.

The Caps coach has to be up for coach of the year. You would never think this collection of players would be playing as well as they are.
And isn’t that the rub? A team that on paper is very similar to the Pens, but they’ve given up the fewest 3rd period goals and the Pens the most.
Shameful

Well, the Pens don't like to win when leading by 2 in the 3rd. Perhaps being down 2 will change the mojo.

In very similar situations the two teams, except one organization made smart and tough moves based on intelligence instead of emotion and brought in quality coaching and the other organization...well, did exactly the opposite in every way.

I don’t know what Petterson and Army are arguing about there, that’s a trip.

Kind of, they had old players on bad contracts stop playing to negate cap hits and were able to take a chance on other bad contracts but younger players to replace them. But they seemed to have drafted a lot better and that’s one big difference.

I missed what Letang did for the penalty. Was it a legit call?

If Jarry was playing tonight it would had been over after 1 and we’d be down 6-1 by now

You’re right. He’s been outplayed on the last 2 goals.
