John Tortorella Guarantees a Columbus Blue Jackets Game 6 Win

The Capitals have the second highest percentage in the playoffs right now.

Monday evening National Hockey League playoff action and a pair of teams from the Metro Division will square off as the Washington Capitals rumble with the Columbus Blue Jackets at Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio in game six of their best-of-seven series. Ovechkin has 93 points via 52 goals and 41 assists, and has recorded multiple points in 27 different games. In his three starts and four playoff games so far, Holtby has registered a 1.66 GAA and.936 save percentage. Unlike most movie trilogies, the sequels in this one have all held up to the original. “That’s what the last little bit of practice has been for, is just preparing for any situation where the team needs you”. It’s simple but it’s hard. They are not going to go down easily at home.

Braden Holtby made 16 of his 39 saves in the third period to help Washington get to overtime. I’m sure a few of us heard it in here. But we’ll take it. The series they have lost?

“That just shows confidence that we’re confident we can do it”, Coach Barry Trotz said.

The Blue Jackets need to win Game 6 or their season is over.

Playing in his 101st career postseason game – one clear of Dale Hunter and Kelly Miller for the second most in franchise history – Backstrom delivered with two goals and an assist, including the OT victor, as the Capitals beat the Columbus Blue Jackets 4-3 in overtime.

It’s not to say the Blue Jackets pivots have been poor.

“He’s playing lights out”, Foligno said of Bobrovsky, “but we’ve got to find a way to get some goals for him and get him some wins.so it’s not for nothing”.

Of course, it had to take yet another overtime to determine the victor and Washington prevailed to take a 3-2 series lead as they now switch back to Columbus Game 6. The Capitals did just that.

“You got to look forward – there’s no sense and no good in looking back”, forward Connor Brown said. We all remember what happened next.

So, the Blue Jackets can’t get caught daydreaming about a possible Game 7.

“Our backs are against the wall, right?”

Then, combined between 2014 and 2017 as the Blue Jackets goalie in the playoffs, he went 3-8 against the Penguins.

See you after Game 6, coach. I’m sorry, I’m not going to break it down for you.

“It’s just trying to clear your head”, Holtby said of his mentality in returning to the crease.

Sergei Bobrovsky has stopped 28.7 shots per game as the primary netminder in goal for Columbus. I think that’s the best possible path for the Penguins to take.

In fact, they are not going down at all. We’re excited about it.

The Jackets head home for a do or die Game 6. The Blue Jackets have to find more secondary offence out of their depth players like Calvert. Losing three in row stings but the Jackets if they can play like they did in that third period, will have a great chance at sending this series back to Washington for Game 7. He expects another nail-biter in the highly competitive matchup between the Metropolitan Division teams.

“We’ll be back here for game seven” said Torts in his post game press conference following the 4-3 overtime loss.

The Bruins have a big advantage when they start working their cycle game in the offensive zone, and nobody does it better than the line of Patrice Bergeron, Brad Marchand and David Pastrnak. Every little tap of the stick was called a slash.
