You just like your entertainment, and have little awareness about the game.

The Caps have a 3:1 ratio of presidents trophys to Cups, that's just about Red Wing territory,
just sayin  ;D

We were definitely a pond hockey during most of the regular season but the playoffs we a very different system. It was defensive play, goaltending and hitting that won us the cup. We played the game the way it was meant to be played.

You and I know that (which is my point), but some zealots clearly think that our 18 players just go out to score goals and if they score more then their 18 we win.


There’s no question that Trotz our coaching the other four coaches won that Cup, though that these changes came after he was all but sure he wouldn’t come back where made.


But to assume Reidon can do that,other coaches won’t be prepared for that switch, and our players can execute it again. should it be tried is so ridiculous and naive it bores on fantasy

We’ll have to wait til the Caps get 10 more Cips😁


But it also goes to show how meaningless The Pres. Tophy is

Lewington got sent back to Hershey today, while not surprising it is disappointing that he only got one start
