    Darcy rocked. We looked old and slow, really need to change the first line.

  2. Gry_F0xxx

    Slow ass start. Great win in the end. The shot differential has got to be cleaned up.

  3. ProbablyDrunkAndLost

    I switched to the Calgary broadcast after the 1st period. Honestly a great broadcast! I’ll watch it again next match up.

  4. Monumental going white-on-white for Calgary’s SO goals was extra.

  5. Regular_Draft_6630

    Monumental bold to rock white text on a white background on the scoreboard in the shootout lol

  6. right-sized

    Young dudes kickin ass. The Kuemperor reigns supreme. Ovie needs to get past this case of the yips.

  7. RYAN_HiGHROLLER

    Kuemps brought the dad energy to bail out the guys who decided to not play half a game today

  8. EverybodyBeCalm

    The old men need a few games to get back in shape. Had it the whole time. Kuemper and goalpost for mvp.

  9. Misled_Titan

    Kuemper is going to have some back pain after carrying that one.

  10. Own_Mushroom_8692

    I don’t feel too optimistic about this roster. It’s more or less the same group that hasn’t been able to get it done since the cup run, but older and slower. I hope I’m wrong.

  11. Thighs4Guys

    Ovi is having a tough one. Hopefully his effort level improves a bit

  12. SiccSemperTyrannis

    Wholesome/60 of this Kuemper post-game interview is elite

  13. kroganwarlord

    Of course they win when I don’t watch, lol.

    Guess I will keep the Caps garden flag out for a few more days.

  14. Positive Takeaways:

    1. Kuemper was great tonight. Based off the offensive output for the first two games, Darcy may need to make that his new standard if we want a chance at wins.
    2. The Milano/Phillips/Strome line looked great. Lost of chemistry in the passing. Keep these guys together.
    3. We won the game and are 1-1 on the season with 0 goals from Ovi, Willy, Strome, Oshie, Carlson, etc. I doubt those guys will go long without scoring, so they’re due.
    4. The PK looked relaly good. Glad to see that we cleaned that up after game 1.

    Overall, I don’t think any of us would say it was a convincing win, but a win’s a win and I think there’s some positives to take away from the game.

  15. sorrynoreply

    A few years ago, I wanted to see ovi break the record and then play one more season as a victory lap. Time changes things, I guess.

    YOUNG FELLAS AND DARCY SAVING OUR ASSES TONIGHT

  17. Monumental still stuck in the preseason with their production. Audio, video…everything needs to improve. Still happening in post game coverage.

  18. UnderCoverDoughnuts

    I recant all the previous things I’ve said about Kuemper.

  19. mark_dink

    matthew phillips made his presence known. what an effort from the kids.

    darcy kumper showing off that new dad strength

    feels good getting that opening night win (>!im ignoring what happened on friday!<)
