It seems like every team has a guy who always scores on the Leafs. Anyone have any doubt that Ovechkin was going to get one tonight?

Ovechkin only really skates one direction, doesn't he?

It's the curse of being the center of the hockey universe (and most populous region in Canada).

Yeah, thats it. Now that the game is tied, they start to say positive stuff about the Leafs. What a pack of franking pickles.

It's almost like divine intervention, too.

That bounce couldn't have been more perfect.

They literally have not stopped talking about Ovechkin for the past two minutes.

They were just itching all game to crack out those "great eight" highlight packs.

Sitting back and playing a road game all night is not working for the Leafs. They should be exposing the Caps terrible defensive game, but instead, they're sitting back and getting pelted.

Ive never understood this either. And you know the mentality is to protect the lead, but allowing the other team to just keep shooting on your goalie is probably the dumbest way to protect a lead.

Yeah, you can't sit onto a 1 goal lead; we're not built that way at all. Gotta be attacking all the time. Sometimes I wonder if Carlyle's trying to turn them into something they're not.

We'll see about taking some people off of cancer and AIDS research and get them on the snoring problem.

Healey is such a complete idiot. "Ovechkin the real deal tonight". The guy did NOTHING all night, and a puck bounces on his stick, and he gets a gift. FRANK OFF, HEALEY.

What makes players like OV so special is that they can turn an average game into something special off one play.

Im also getting sick of our lack of offense. Whats this now, 5th or 6th time in the past 9 games where we scored 1 regulation goal or less?

Mason Raymond doesn't score that. Even a good player like Backstrom doesn't.
