Schmaltz looked exhausted towards the end of the game.
I’m really not mad about tonight. Effort was there, we never gave up. Caps are a really good team. Looking forward to us developing more. The seasons to come are going to be a lot more fun. Hopefully Ovechkin is alright. Huge bummer.
Bummer we got clubbed.. maybe going on the road will be good for the boys. Hope they can get a few wins against the original six and get some confidence. Feel like we need to get our power play clicking again, it hasn’t felt lethal since the beginning of the season.
Tonight was one of those nights where I was glad that two scoops of ice cream is only $4 at the Delta Center. Because if I’m gonna wallow in misery, it’s best done with ice cream.
Tough loss. It felt like the hockey gods weren’t on our side. Ingy was brutal to watch. If we started Veggie, it could have maybe been a little different. I think we’re starting to see who the better goaltender is. Game was super fun to be at with some great energy from the Utah folks. God bless the beer chug fan fam!
I feel like we were playing better with 7 D a few games back. Getting our ducks in a row helped our O get going. Still a fun game to be at.
A few posts aside, 0/7 on the power play is rough, it’s been a bit of an issue all year (tied for second last in power play goals in the league)
