Random Recap – Caps 3, Rangers 2

(NOTE: I’m still trying to come up with a name for these post-game analyses.  I’ll use different ones until something sticks)I didn’t see the entire game (missed much of the third).

  • Scratch Tom Poti for the next game.  He played the shooter when he should’ve played the pass on the two-on-one that led to the Gomez goal, and was lazy in front of the net for the Straka goal.
  • Joe Motzko, who knew?  Donald Brashear, who knew (squared)?  #87 was a goal away from a Gordie Howe hat trick.
  • @Matt Pettinger’s non-goal: it would’ve been a goal if the shooter wasn’t in a Capitals jersey.
  • Mike Green with some nifty moves.  Glad to see it pay off with the GWG in Overtime.
  • To Brendan Shanahan: Hey, at least you don’t have to skate on this ice 41 times a year.
