In the 2nd intermission Kevin Bieksa informs us that he was once removed from a game by a concussion spotter, also after a hit by Sam Bennett, and that this was a coincidence

Yeah I dunno, if you're allowed to intentionally elbow a goalie in the side of the head your team will be tough to beat

CBC panel types did the same thing after Bennett took out Knies, basically a game of chicken with one another to see if anyone is going to describe what actually happened

I don’t know if a concussion spotter is necessary when a guy ks puking in a bucket on the bench

I think it’s gotta be the Canes. Caps beat out the Wings last year, would be nice for Burns to get a Cup, don’t care for Chychrun / Dubois / Wilson.

The Caps have blocked seven shots in the first five minutes

This series isn’t going to be any fun, is it

Caps have had a million blocks tonight but that happens when Carolina’s in the umbrella and there’s no clear shooting lane to the net

I don’t understand how Hill didn’t get a delay of game penalty for knocking the net off its moorings during a McDavid wraparound attempt. Lyon got called for that this season on an innocuous play.

I went to bed before they completed the comeback, but thee Goil looked like they were on the PP for a lot of the second period (not just the time they were on the PP in the second period. Felt good that they'd pull it off.

I don't think you should be allowed to use the phrase "Calls game" for a playoff OT goal which is basically "some guy blindly threw it at the net through five screens". Jacob Slavin did not "call game".
