Apparently, there are squirrels on the track at Dover.

So for a season review:


Carbury - not bad, the team seemed to play for him at times. He has been dealt a bad hand though.


Ovi - really just an awful year despite getting 30 goals.  Not sure how many 5 on 5 goals he had and for 2/3rds of the games he pretty much just half-heartedly skated around. He will keep chasing the record and it's going to be hard to watch.


Carlson - have to say he had a pretty decent year but he still made plenty of boneheaded mistakes.


McMike - seemed to take one step forward, then one back, but overall improved a fair amount.


Lappy - might be our best shot at a future top 6 guy.


Protos - regressed a lot after his contract signing. Hopefully they can get him playing with more fire.


Oshie - totally done and should retire but he will come back for the money - can't blame him for that.


Malenstyn - a very pleasant surprise. Hope they sign him long term.


Fehervary - our best dman, he had a pretty decent year with more improvement to come.


Willy - not great this year and wasn't skating that well - that knee injury might be a long-term issue.


Jensen - thought he had a pretty good year and has some speed which we desperately need.


Sandin - jury is still out, although his small size will continue to be a problem - especially in the playoffs.


Overall, we are obviously an old, slow team that isn't physical anymore and doesn't have any real star players.

Yeah Darrell was a true Redskin back in the heyday.
I remember the Superbowl vs Broncos where we were getting killed in the 1st half, then they had Darrell return a kickoff (or a punt?) and he ran it back for a TD...we made big comeback and won it.
Ahh...the good ole days.  Hell I'm old - I can remember when the Caps were good too  :raspberry:
FFS - HIT HIM!!!
SHOOT - THE - PUCK

He was one of those coaches (to me anyway) that when you first saw him, you just said, nah.  :rofl:

round 1 game 7 Leafs vs Boston, the Leafs goalie looks pretty good
