The Capitals need to remind Lars Eller-Gretzky that he's a 30 year old 3rd liner who's never hit the 20 goal mark once in his career. Teams don't like having to pay the freight for a teammates mouth when that player doesn't have the parts to back up his own hype.
Caps laid down in the 3rd. Started 8-1 outshot that period. Then they tilted the ice at the end but it was too late. Gotta remember playing all these "Playoff" teams like Leafs, pens etc early down a man.. no Willy. Caps at full strength with Willy too.., I dont care how much media slurp off Leafs caps are a notch better still. Better down the middle and Willy back knocking fools loose who think ice is free. Caps still got a leg up
