That's what we keep hearing.  Lots of excuses!

It may be obvious, my attitude towards this team is not good. Same old lack of effort on a consistent basis.

I don't Know ArJ.   The last 5 goals he’s given up have been 4 PP goals and one as the PK was ending and the 5th defenseman wasn’t back yet.   If you want your goalie to play better ..... stay out of the f*n penalty box.

Stars have 4-1 power plays and Ovie gets dragged to the ice -- a real horsecollar -- and no fucking call.  WTF is that?

The refs in this league just suck balls.

not that I care but did you see the non call on Marchand the other night? absolutely horrendous

[Maacoshark]

Holtby simply does not look like Holtby!  He does not appear to have anywhere near the poise and composure we're used to.  This game he appears shaky, timid, and I'll say scared.

   Well he wasn't at fault on either goal so I dont understand the bust comment tonight.

Eller and Orlov combined to make that look like the fucking keystone cops.

Jesus Ben just took four players to school

[justwincaps]

OK ArJ - Holtby could’ve / should’ve had that.

Like I said, my opinions are admittedly tainted by a negative attitude towards the team right now.  You know me, for years I cannot tolerate the lack of consistent effort displayed by the Caps, and it's eating at me again.

the 2nd goal was deflected right in front of the crease, not to many goalies can deal with those. That last one was a team effort

[Maacoshark]

I think we are all frustrated about the lack of consistency by this team

   That last one. Ugly turnover by Eller and some weak defense by Orlov. It was a sweet play by Benn though. I'd love to have that guy on our team.

Anyone still awake?

[justwincaps]

C’mon C-A-P-S.   Isles are trying to help us out - leading the Hens 3-1.  Could be a 4 point night. 

[apace41]

We may have the worst D in the league when it comes to the simple ability to control the puck.  We turn it over like it's our job.  Kempny is really not an upgrade from Bowey from what I'm seeing.  I'd rather get Bowey the experience since Kempny is a rental.

[justwincaps]

Detroit helping out too - leading the Flyers by the same score. 

[dpf1971]

OMFG ... I come back to watching the Caps again only to see a clinic in shitty passing and zero effort.  I would start fining these lazy assholes because it seems we've collected a team of individuals that only play their individual best when its a contract year.

[justwincaps]

Jamie Benn is a much better player than I’ve given him credit for.  I know he’s not exactly unknown, but he isn’t one of the first names I think of when I name some of the best players in the league, but he should be.

[dpf1971]

Hey look, another fucking icing .... didn't we have a guy that we paid next to nothing, and still scored a nice number of goals for a 3rd liner) that would chase those down all of the time?  FFS

[DC_1908]

Heh Faska would of destroyed Hooks

[justwincaps]

Shit - a 4 on 4.  Wasn’t it last year that went almost the entire year without a 4 on 4 goal?

I do believe you are correct.
