Zak MacMillan: OTT G51 v Washington Capitals — No Cousins

holy crap was that extremely poor positioning by forsberg on the first goal....

now thats a (frank)ing PK, aggressive = 2 Sgoals.

and right back to crap PKing....

...does Ovechkin have a magical bubble around him? Everyone skated away from him and then Washington ties it... That was the weirdest play I've ever seen.

and of course sens crap defense costs them 2 points... after leading by 2 goals twice.

Sens only 4 points behind Leafs. Great momentum. 2nd and 3rd lines looking really solid.

leafs playing EDM Sat, OTT vs Min tho MIN is 20-5-3 on the road.

Sens playing TBL 4th and 6th of FEB both in TBL, could be playoffs or not right there.

Only 11 teams have a better record in the NHL.
Only 6 teams have better goals against in the NHL.

Only 2 teams have a better record in the NHL than Ottawa over the past 68 days (since November 24th). Only Washington has a better SV% from their goalies in that time.

How are you feeling about your Pierre Luc Dubois call now? It has certainly worked out for Washington.

Last night sure was exciting, and shows the team still has some learning to do. But, this is another one of those games they would have lost last year, or even to start the year, reminiscent of the Vegas game. They are learning, and its being proven on the scoreboard.

Also bears mentioning that I think that it was one the best teams in the East pulling the near comeback, and that game would not have been the same against most other teams.

Lastly, even great teams like Washington make very poor defensive plays like we saw in OT that would have this thread pulling its hair out.

The was not the case for Los Angeles. He was bad from the start.

No guarantees in life but itis a move that could work out very well for a team that is now capable of pushing very deep in the playoffs.
