| 0:05.0 | Alex Ovetchkin on the follow-up. |
| 0:10.0 | That's its 11th goal. |
| 0:12.0 | After back-to-back losses, the caps desperately needed a complete 60-minute showing, |
| 0:17.0 | and that's pretty much exactly what they got, |
| 0:20.0 | as they are in this season split |
| 0:21.6 | with the Edmonton Oilers with a convincing 4-2 win on home ice in game two of a five-game |
| 0:27.3 | homestan. This is the Capitals Talk podcast for Tuesday, November 6th. I'm Rob Carlin with |
| 0:33.0 | Alan May, Brian McNally, and Ryan Billy all here downstairs at Capitol One Arena, where the caps, |
| 0:41.6 | look, jumped on Edmonton early. The fourth line was buzzing right out of the gate. Travis |
| 0:46.2 | Boyd had 12 games of pent up emotion and just dominated. I said it in the TV show. I tweeted |
| 0:52.8 | the same thing. Forget Connor McDavid. This was Boyd-Maniah tonight early, Alan. Well, he certainly had a lot of pen-up frustration. He got a couple of games at Hershey this past weekend, wanted to make the team out of training camp, was sick at one point, ended up hurting his foot in another, but the big thing is tonight he came out, used his legs, He played the game aggressively, played like he wanted to own the jersey rather than just wear it. I thought he had his line going all game long. Heavy on the forecheck, fast to get pucks towards the front of the net. I thought the muck and grind on defense was excellent. So they did exactly what a fourth line supposed to do, and that's provide energy. |
| 1:27.7 | I thought Verona had a sharp game tonight in Smith Pelly, obviously a very, very good game, |
| 1:31.9 | and all the penalties had killed. McNally, it's funny. I heard you talking with Travis this morning, |
| 1:37.1 | and I don't mean there's all due respect, drudging up the disappointment of the end of training. |
| 1:43.0 | Oh, I was trying to just make his life just, yeah. |
| 1:45.7 | Let's drudge up some. |
| 2:01.2 | Really soft. You really wanted to make this team out of camp. And you were that close. And you were that close. And then you took a puck off the foot and that was that. So he was okay with it. Yeah, look, it's part of it. Part of the gig. He may have cursed me out as he walked out of the locker room, but it was fine. |
| 2:03.1 | I mean, it was good to see. |
| 2:01.2 | Look, it's a guy who gig. He may have cursed me out as he walked out of the locker room, but it was fine. |
| 2:03.0 | I mean, it was good to see. |
| 2:06.0 | Look, it's a guy who's kind of had to defer his dream a little bit. |
