The commentators for the Sabers got it wrong. Nick Backstrom IS a goal-scorer. See all-time NHL overtime playoff goal leaderboard. He is a historically-elite passer and an extremely selfless person/ hockey player (unlike fellow Swede Mojo). Ask Canes fans. I’ve seen him score two hat tricks live. The man absolutely, positively has another gear when it comes to clutch goal-scoring. Sure he usually only scores about 18 goals year, but it would be double that if he didn’t have a pass-first mentality or wasn’t playing with the greatest goal-scorer of all time
Shoot out needs to go. Example: a hard fought tie on the road and at least you gained a point in the standings! Moral victory. Last place team visits the #1, plays beyond themselves, and gets out with a tie and a point! Good old style Hockey. It wasn’t broke why fix it? ☦️

Caps were lucky to win, buffalo dominated the second half of the game and OT
He couldn’t shoot with a cut lace? Ooooookay…….
Alex Tuch. Caps fans definitely remember him from the Finals with Vegas. He was the victim of The Save.
Kuznetsov channeled his inner Patrick Kane with his attempt tonight.
When backstrom took his turn I was like why are they booing him at home then I realized buffalo was home just wearing whites for whatever reason
Dokarski was trash…
Кузя дал огня кншн😂вратаря аж жалко чуть стало.
Sabers are so much better off without Jack Eichel. Thought it would be the opposite IMO
That Tuch Mittelstadt situation is a dang it lol
The gr8est!
Kuzy!
Those Sabres Jerseys are 🔥
Кузя как всегда в своём репертуаре 😁
YES CAPS. Nice moves although Bäckström's shot yikes… Oh and just makes it better when it's Ovi who ends the game

Capitals are too old, plain and simple.
Kuznetsov demonstrated what happens when you approach the event horizon.
The "Great 8" wins it for the Capitals!
Alex Ovechkin 👏👏
