The first one was a nice tip, but on the second one he was in a sh*t position, which is about the 8th time I've seen that this year. If you're going to be a positional goalie who doesn't move much, you can't leave a foot and a half from the short side post.

Agree and it's also worth mentioning that Strait should have tried to get a stick on that shot........even Butchie mentioned that.

I didn't know a whole hell of a lot about him but I was under the impression he was a dependable back up. Hopefully he can turn his game around.

I was under the same impression Cpt. I would not mind seeing what Poulin could do with a much better Isles team this year.

while I'd be curious to see him, I'm not willing to take the risk of waiving Johnson yet. I'm still expecting him to settle down but he's having a rough start to the year.

**edit - yay we killed a penalty lol

Hes looked a little better and hes goong to have to on this kill considering the caps are now three for three on the pp against us so far this season

I agree. Too soon to think about taking the risk of waiving Johnson yet.

I'd like to see Johnson finish strong for us this game, I do think he's going to play some meaningful games for us this year and we're gonna need him. He's not a bad goalie, just seems to be overplaying everything right now. I'm hoping he'll hold the caps at 2.

**edit-- well...that's out.

OK...I know it's Ovi, but c'mon...

He looks sharper so far in the second. Bailey is stand out bad to me today. Hes doing the old one handed stick check routine that we all love. Im starting to lose faith at this point. Cant stand half assed efforts.

First...obvious offsides not called.
Second...Johnson sucks.
Third...Tavares tripped, no call.

on my way home from work, should be able to catch the third period. Hopefully we're at least within a goal when I get there.

Yup...fumbled a few rebounds after that, too. Not looking very steady in there.

OK...I know it's Ovi, but c'mon...

I think that play was offsides also? Terrible goal.

Another sh*t goal...but that said, I hate.....HATE......f***ing pond hockey. It needs to stop immediately. I would call time out and scream at them, myself.

Theres been a few blown calls so far. Obvious hold on grabovski. Whatever. Idk what it is I find the caps annoying. Always have

Wtf is with the announcement over the PA saying how much time is left on the PP?

Better come out with some fire in the third. They owe the Caps after the second...on the scoreboard and with the physical play.

Yes. Refs are blind today. Also missed three penalties...

Its been poorly officiated but we arent pushing that hard so far either. Little lacksadaisacl in the d zone.

Home now and about to watch the highlights, may be back with a bad word about Johnson.
