He had been on for 90s when Hank froze the puck. Torts pulled Girardi but left McDonough out there.
Caps first line proceeded to hold possession for the next minute straight, DoG penalty, game over.
Not that Torts has great defensive options, but he got outcoached. At the timeout just eariler used Oates didn't put out the first line, so Girardi/McD were left defending someone else. Then after a couple shifts, Oates put the first line out and that's when Girardi/McD were dead tired.
It feels good to see your head coach out coach someone in the playoffs.
