Damn! Orpik appeared to pull up hard when he saw he turned his back to him.  Weak call at best.

Hello all.

Any reason why Burakovsky is out?  On the trade block perhaps??

He sucks? lol Had high hopes for the kid but apparently he's a head case..

This game does have a weird feel to it.  Stone Hands not only is on the 1st line, he's scored.  I feel all funky - not only physically but also I'm on this little stay-cation and I have this feeling I should be getting ready for work.  Chaisson has the other goal .... I mean, WTF??

The only thing worse than hopping the Hens win is hopping Pilly wins tonight

 
apparently I need to splain, if Pilly wins in regulation tonight the Hens will have sole position of last place in the Metro

Winning is fun. Go Caps!

First things first.   Welcome to the Forum.

I would guess maybe because the alternatives are shooting the puck and having success.  Maybe coach is giving him another timeout.

Thank you. Good to be here!

Well, I hoped the kid would develop into the player we all thought he would be but now I hope he doesnt - that is, if he ends up with another team.

Isn't that a wonderful thought!   

[ArJunaZ]

Another cheap call.  Kuzy barely touched him.  We haven't seen many any embellishment calls this year.  There surely were some deserved embellishment calls.

I kind of agree with you.  I had some hopes for the kid, esp. after the second half of last season and how the 3rd line jelled.  But again, after his injury, its like he needed a total reset.  As a professional hockey player, you can't keep having to do that.  My big concern now is that we don't coddle the guy.  Either set a deadline  for a return to form, or trade the guy while he still has some worth. 

[IDontGiveaChuk]

I agree, and trade him while he still has upside. That should be for a few years maybe but I would like to see something valuable in return. Either that or, snap the F out of it bura!

   No kidding. I think they have to get Kuzy off the half wall on the pp.

[alta]

The intermission radio guy just called DSP's goal secondary scoring. From the 1st line?

Kuzy reminds me of Semin, far too many stick penalty’s

Haven't seen him play any bongos though....

At least Semin would shoot the goddamn puck.

[Maacoshark]

Fucking bs

[dpf1971]

FFS ... this is what happens when you keep demanding your lower lines carry more than share.
