Tuesday Caps Clips: Best of One

Your savory breakfast links:

• Caps’ stuff that we were talking about yesterday before Game 6. [Rink]
• Recaps and other assorted musings on last night’s loss from us, Vogs, Caps video (Reirden, locker room, recap), Canes, NHL, AP, PHT, WaPo, NBCSW, WashTimes, News & Observer, Peerless, NoVa Caps (and again), RMNB, and Canes Country.
• On the goal that wasn’t. [FtW, USA Today, The Score, NBCSW, News & Observer]
• Needless to say, Alex Ovechkin was not pleased with the call and... well, let the refs know. In a subtle way, of course. [WashTimes, Yahoo]

• And now? Game 7 awaits. [NHL, Caps, NoVa Caps]
• The Caps don’t have time to dwell on the missed calls or the negative - they’ve got a series to win. [NBCSW]
• There’s no other way to put it: the Capitals simply need more from Evgeny Kuznetsov. [WaPo, TheFanDC]
• The Norris Trophy finalists are out and somehow inexplicably John Carlson is (again) not among them. [NBCSW]
• The Caps had been on a run of knocking teams out when given the chance, going from chokers to closers. [NBCSW]
• One of the biggest reasons for this consistent run of success, at least through the first round? Braden Holtby. [PHT]
• Andre Burakovsky has turned to team father/mentor/nutritionist Brooks Orpik for guidance on becoming his best self - at least as far as food intake goes. [ESPN]
• Finally, happy 61st birthday to Ryan Walter.
