Capitals 5 Flames 2
Capitals 5 Flames 2
- Ovechkin with two
- Flames play well but can't finish and get smoked by the Caps powerplay
- Wolf with 4 against but some tough bounces (tips, odd shot)

Thought that was a really disappointing game. Three of the goals with people just left wide open / plenty of time to shoot.

It’s funny that Kadri and Huberdeau were in the 80s and finished -2. I did think that line had the best chances though.
I agree on Pachal. Millen thought he was going to be in the doghouse? Nah.
This game was won on special teams and some pretty bad reffing.

There were rough periods in the front half of the season as the old defense corps figured out exactly how to play under huska. I'm thinking of the end of this season as an adjustment period, so that they can come out flying next year.

Those details are where you see the difference emerge between advanced stats and reality

Not sure I agree.
But then we've done this 100 times.
If you leave people open in front of the net then the counts for tips, rebounds and one timers inside the home plate go up, and with that they are accurate.
If you have a tight net front presence the stats would reflect less of those instances.
We both agree the stats can get better in shades of grey counts for really dangerous vs moderately dangerous, but in this case the counts would reflect an uptick.

Talent matter also. They lost 2 very good dmen and a sometime good dman
The new guys need plenty of time to get to that level

NHL Playoff Status has the Flames at 7% now, down 4% over night.
They need to go 13-0-1 to have one more point than Vegas at the end of the season. (.964).
They need to go 5-8-3 to slip past Buffalo and into a top ten pick.

Use the games for practice. Winning is secondary. Actually don’t win is even better

5-8-3 seems very doable.

Have to pass two teams.
Buffalo is quite hot right now, I think they're possible.
Seattle might be the other team to target downward, they're close to .500 in their last 10.
Others are losing more than they win by a fair stretch.
