Charlie, who else?


He's been standing on his  head in  recent Caps victories with him in net.  He's athletic, but small, and as much as he thrashes around it isn't surprising  that he has injury issues.


He's never been seen as anything other than a backup goalie, and he looks as  though he can be good at it -- IF  his workload is managed.  But Carbery seems like a coach who will lean  on  guys if/when they are producing.  His TOI management was good  in the back-to-back this week, but if he sees a day or two (or more) off coming up he isn't shy about playing guys heavy minutes if he feels they are playing well.

Hershey called a goalie up from South Carolina today. Usually that means a goalie from Hershey is going to be called up.

Yea, no way Charlie plays tonight.  :-( They are switching up Kuzy and Strome though.

This goalie stuff makes me laugh whenever there are a few games close to each other.  Glenn Hall once started 583 consecutive games.  That's the equivalent of over 7 full seasons today without missing a start! :snicker:   


Oh, and without a mask. 8-0


Methinks the modern players are just a bit coddled.

Despite last night’s performance, 2 fer 4 isn’t hateful for this road trip.

I watched a couple of the R1 2018 games bs Columbus this weekend.
Milano was in Columbus squad. I don’t remember that
Ovie and Oshie were unbelievably better way back when
Kuzy was too.

Just read that on RMNB.   From 1st line center to healthy scratch in 2 games?  Gotta be some kind of record.

Comparing 39's approach this year to 92's says a lot about those players.  HCSC is making moves.

Good! Dude is a liability most shifts anyway. Love the fact that Carbs isn't reluctant to healthy scratch guys who make over the barrier $3m salary. That used to be taboo, at least in DC. Hopefully it sparks him, but I have a feeling he's just washed. Hasn't been anywhere close to the same since they took his coke.  :-\

Really hoping we will see either Elias Lindholme or Sean Monahan in a Caps uni before too long !
