    That looked like the team from December. Scary first and they ramped up the rest of the game. New additions to the team are looking good!

  2. DanSRedskins

    The washed-up-has-beens are mostly gone.

    And just like that… The Caps… Are back!!

  3. MCCapitalist

    Sandin thinkin’ he never left Toronto with all these goals

  4. TheBarbieOfSeville

    caps are like 3-1 when the biscuit plushie watches the game

  5. mark_dink

    that was the game of all time.

    i don’t know what to make of it.

    well done to the newbies, especially vinny and smith. yall are legends.

    do the same shit in LA and it will be a VERY successful Cali road trip.

    Insane game. I guess offense is back on the menu ??

  7. United_Marionberry_9

    awesome game! the first period always makes me unsure though but the energy through the second and third made up for it.

  8. beardyman22

    I guess we just don’t play close games any more.

  9. BCharmer

    Glad to see Sandin had 3 apples for you guys with heavy minutes. How’d he play overall other than the points?

  10. RYAN_HiGHROLLER

    Sharks East are clearly better than Caps West

  11. MadMcMuffin

    I turned it off after the first period. I’ll stop watching caps from now on!

    The guys looked fired up coming out of the tunnel before the 2nd, and they were a different team once that pd started. Someone said something that resonated in the locker room.

    I fucking love Tom Wilson. He was so fired up on the bench during the 2nd period. The guy just wants to win and it shows

  13. mattcojo

    That was fun. Just needed some time to settle in

    Shame that the blowout happened to the sharks (no hate for them, rather this be against Toronto) but hey, a win is a win. Need it badly.

    Thank kyle dubas for.gifting you a 22 year old top 4 D. He would rather keep a 39 year old vet who will soon be retired.

    People whining about winning a game already getting on my nerves, hope it’s not going to be three months of that. The Caps are not bad enough to lose every game and these guys won’t throw it on purpose, imagine not being able to enjoy an 8-goal win because you are still mad the team didn’t get punished enough.

  16. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think all of the new guys to the roster, acquisitions and call-ups, each had at least one point tonight.

  17. super-bird

    I couldn’t watch the game. How did Iorio, Carlsson, and Sandin look?

  18. BruntFCA_

    This team loves blowing people out on Saturday’s

  19. InfallibleBackstairs

    Iorio got the rope. He was so freaking happy. Love to see the kids get a chance.

  20. Haul_o_GRam

    Leafs fans are FUMING about the Sandin trade, he might’ve just became my 2nd favourite player on this team

  21. Haul_o_GRam

    Another positive, it seems they rode Alexeyev like a horse tonight and he came through…

  22. FatBoySpeaks

    Based off what I saw this game, I don’t think tanking is on the menu anymore boys. We *MIGHT* be able to squeeze a playoff spot

    Edit: we are only a few points from WC2 spot. But, we’ve played a few more games over the pens. If we can finish the year going two wins per 3 games, we should clinch a spot.

  23. hankginoistaken

    The Sharks were our dominant regular season cupless counterpart in the west for the longest time. feelsbadman beating them like that at home but the Caps need the points

  24. K00ksRus

    Shout out to Alexeyev for standing up for Iorio after getting a slew foot

  25. Levelheadedfan1989

    Good to see all the player transactions putting the trades and past behind them. I thought the craig smith was a low key win in return IF smith actually played like he wanted to play (didnt have the same energy in Boston). My biggest take away from the players that were traded, have to commend BMGM that he at least traded them to contenders and not to teams that are tanking. Shows class that he still cares on where/who he was trying to trade with.

  26. MetalMan1973

    What we need is Ovi to use this game to go on a tear. I know 50 goals would be a stretch but I hope he starts firing that puck at the net like crazy 🏒🥅

    I was worried first period not gonna lie. But second and third blew my worries (and the sharks) outta the water!! I think once we got out of a shaky first period we got it done!!! I’m still a new fan so idk a lot about the team but it was a crazy game!! Definitely made my night!!!
