Wow talk about adding injury to insult

This was bad enough but why did Ghost Bear have to die?

There's going to be a hell of a line brawl before this one's over

Flyers fans booing Orpik off the ice. Nice.

But please Philly fans, tell us more about how Pittsburgh fans are shitheads for booing Lundqvist returning to the ice

Not sure if Orpik is hotbrained or not, looked more like he might have broken a rib or two, which if you've ever broken a rib you'd understand why he was barely moving

Leave it to the Flyers to get pissed off and instead of taking a run at the Caps' best player, take a run at the Caps' worst player

It might only take one more Caps goal for the refs to preemptively throw White and Wilson out of the game, they might not even wait for a 3 goal lead

Caps really leaving the inevitable implosion to the last minute this year eh?

Saving it for Round 2 most likely. The Flyers are just bad.

Ok yeah wow, I just saw the replay from a different angle and if Orpik were a boxer the ref would have declared a TKO before he even hit the ground, the lights were on but there was nobody home.

This is basically why I didn't want the Flyers in the first round. Hopefully Orlov isn't concussed. Lucky he isn't crippled, that looked dangerous.

You'd have rather had the Bruins?

I don't think Bellemare meant to hurt Orlov actually

Call the delay of game penalty and if the assholes continue throwing poo poo on the ice then declare the game over and a loving forfeit, holy poo poo

At this point if I were Mason I'd be very very tempted to kill someone, preferably Ovechkin, and would be more than happy to be suspended for Game 4

Also, the Flyers penalty kill, for whatever reason, has become incredibly passive during this Capitals series, and I don't get it because they had a lot of success, particularly when Richards was on the team, by being aggressive on the PK

It's because when any coach is confronted with something scary his instant reaction, invariably, is to get more conservative, and Ovechkin is loving terrifying

Like if word breaks out Wednesday afternoon that Steve Mason didn't show up for pregame workouts and just skipped town and turned his phone off, would anyone be surprised?
