Vegas is beating the jets to the puck. The first half of the period was pretty even but then Vegas seemed to step it up

[tbone_ 14020]

So pretty much opposite of game 1?

Can't watch. What's different about tonight?

Flower stonewalling the early jets push then Vegas taking full control of the 2nd half of the period. I think they had 9 unanswered shots on goal heading into the break. 3 posts and a few saves kept it from getting out of hand. 

[cactusflinthead 27593]

Well now. That was a dagger. 

[The Dude 1244]

Lol wow it got quiet in there in a hurry

[GopherRock 1765]

This series is going 7

[IPoopOnWhoop 93]

Tonight could be the most important game of the Ovechkin era.  A win and a berth in the cup finals is almost assured, a loss and doubts could creep back into the minds of the team.  I expect a lower scoring game with both teams feeling some pressure.  I can’t wait for this one.

[Pig Bellmont 8678]

Meh. Even if the Caps split the next two, they’d be in fantastic shape. Just can’t drop both home games. I expect TB to play fast and furious tonight after the ass kicking they got over the weekend. They’re still a tough team and I think everyone would be shocked if they were swept 

[IPoopOnWhoop 93]

Well this sucks

[cactusflinthead 27593]

This one and last night's feels like the home team got caught flat-footed.

Milbury had the coach speak, but he's right about the checking from Wash. Roenick seems pissed off about the level of giveashit.

[cactusflinthead 27593]

Cool shot of Stevie Y and the Little Ball of Hate

[Firemans4Horn 17791]

Man,

this broadcasting crew is money tonight. They did a nice informative segment on how Vegas was setting up their forecheck and making Hellebuyck uncomfortable and less than 15 minutes later it directly leads to a goal.

Vegas is really damn good. 

[Agent 13 314]

They are relentless.

[Gardner Barnes 1562]

They are relentless.

Exactly my thought - just always there.

Fleury just made two amazing saves

[Firemans4Horn 17791]

MAF is a BAMF

[Firemans4Horn 17791]

Tyler Myers has been a beast tonight

[Firemans4Horn 17791]

Vegas is such an insane story. Fun series so far. 

[cactusflinthead 27593]

Relentless is a good word. They have been this way all season. After the spanking the Jets delivered I thought Vegas was toast. So very wrong.

[Hamttx 419]

I will laugh my ass off if Vegas does the impossible and not only wins the cup. But denies Washington a title by a fucking expansion team.

The Caps have to get by the Bolts first... let’s just say the Capsiest thing would probably be becoming the 3rd team in history to lose the Conference finals series after going up 2-0. Tonight is a big deal.

Why? What's the history with the caps?

[heso 2748]

On one hand it would be great to see the caps make it through the pens only to get stoned by Flower yet again. On the other hand, fuck the caps and I hope the lose the next 3. 

[Jive Turkey 12561]

Looked like the Caps were gonna cruise tonight. Up 2-0. Then it was 2-2 in a flash. 

This third period is intense.

It was 1-0 then 2-1 Tampa Bay. 

Every Caps penalty feels like a mandatory 1 goal punishment

[Ogie Ogilthorpe 637]

Jets 4th line seems like their best line tonight

[Ogie Ogilthorpe 637]

The flower is playing out of his mind.  

[heso 2748]

So if Vegas wins the cup, who gets the trophy first since the have no captain?

Gotta figure fleury

[Ogie Ogilthorpe 637]

Not saying the jets will lose

[cactusflinthead 27593]

That mojo has not run out. Amazing.

[EMAWesome 101]

Most significant injury suffered so far in the playoffs.

Agreed. Several former Stars on that team, so kinda easy to root for them.

[Colonel Sanders 1332]

That second period was amazing.  Need to see a game 7.

We’re gonna get it. Can’t wait. 

[PhillyD 1257]

And a  game 7 there will be.

Oshie looked entirely different this game than he has in this series because they moved Backstrom to his line.

Wilson played like an animal.  I can't wait until Game 7.

[cactusflinthead 27593]

The dagger

[BigOrange1 6408]

that was a lot of fun to watch.  game 7 should be great.

[IPoopOnWhoop 93]

Wooooooooo game 7!!!

[Pig Bellmont 8678]

Caps out hit, out husselled and out shot TB tonight. Loved how physical they played
