First of all, they had multiple chances to score but failed to do so. Viktor Kozlov hit the post on a sneaky wrist shot that should have made it 2-0, and Tomas Fleischmann whiffed on a wide open net from about 16 inches away that should of then made it 3-0.

And there was the great save by Ward on Semin - if it weren't for Ward, the Caps could have had three or four goals in the first.

In Flesichmann's defense, the replay on the 'Canes broadcast showed a Carolina player getting his stick on Fleischmann's just was he was getting to the puck.

I agree in part with your comment about the call on Green - I think it was fine to call him, but I'm not sure why there weren't matching minors.

Interesting that they called that penalty on Greenie. Especially when there was no call on the two 'canes riding Brashear to the end wall.

I hope they don't have to move Bradley. I wasn't crazy about him before this season. But, now he kind of reminds me of Brian Sutherby - on a good day.
