Start of the 3rd. You know us and the notoriously bad 2nd periods

let's not get greedy. i've long given up any hope of an actual shorty.

they did a very nice job on that pk. seriously. big, especially at the end of the period like that on a poopty 2MM call.

Solid period, have a real chance to win this game. Strong kill on the PK. Umberger even had a good period. Who'd have thunk it!

I don't think the long layoff by the caps can be understated. The flyers better come out hard again in the 2nd in case the caps wake up

Have to believe the Caps will get better as the game goes along. Flyers start on the PP, burying one could really help.

Umberger was fading away, and had to stop the puck. Still a good scoring chance that needed a good save to stop. Umberger does not have an offensive game anymore, but someone has to be the team scapegoat.

If only Weal was in the game.

I hope Raffl comes back. The Flyers had a real strong period without the Giroux line having a good period.

"ManDog" would do a better job manning El Chapo's prison cell than the point on the PP...

Just use 4 forwards if he's going to be out there as 1 of the d men.
