Obviously, it is VERY early in the season with a new coach and system - far too early to make any definitive judgments.  But the very early returns suggest that this season could turn really ugly.

It’s frustrating to watch, but I’m not overly concerned. As long as they are .500 at Christmas they are still a playoff team. Also, every time this team started the season on fire they never went far in the playoffs.

I'm usually the positive one on here, but I don't see it today.
Ovi scored.  WHOOPEEDOO.  Thats what he's paid for.  Hes paid to score a LOT.  he's paid a LOT to score.
I've not been impressed by him at all so far.

Father Time IS undefeated.  It's a matter of when he gets the upper hand.


Maybe we ought to change the character to Mother Time.  Why should time be a masculine concept?

The Caps do have a new PP coach this season. The guys haven’t seemed to changed their ways yet. The days of standing in one place ended a few years ago.

You already know the answer.
For those that don't, mothers prduce and reproduce, fathers limit and restrict.  They think they own and control.

That was rubbish.
Refs notwithstanding, that was poor.

I don't think it is or players to be blamed..  It is our coaches,  Every one of them.

I can't tell you how upset I am by this game.
All our players are NHL calibre players, right?
Right?
