Need one before the end of the 2nd.

That was a penalty on them but it’s 2-0 on PPs so no call.

That thought has been going through my mind for a while now. If not before intermission then very early in the 3rd.

I wonder if we should have Backstrom and Eller centering our top 2 lines until Kuzy gets his shit together.

Holy SHEIT. WHat did you guys do? I leave for 30 minutes and THIS....

This garbage play is really difficult to watch. So many giveaways. Weak battles.

How they were allowed a option to be at the morning skate with the crap passing of late is a bit surprising. They need practice.

Yeah, but Rich is going to come to the site and tell us we are way too critical of the team, and blah, blah, blah. Well, when they suck we should be allowed to say they suck, and right now they suck. Pittsburgh, Columbus, NYI and Carolina ain't going away so if we don't play a LOT better than the past several weeks we are going to have to fight to get in.

Yeah, but you guys are WAY too hard on this SHITTY CAPS TEAM

Peace out peeps. I'm headed home to watch the rest of this disaster on tape.

I will critique your critical critiques tomorrow

Yep. Giveaways from dumb passes or dumb zone entries. Everyone seems to want to go 1 vs 5 so they can make a YouTube dekes and dangles highlight video or make some silly no look between the legs hands tied behind your back pass on a prayer that someone in a Caps jersey will be the first to get it. That plus not enough compete level to win pucks back. I feel like it's been going on for weeks now. It's been so frustrating...

Thank you, sir. If I say, WE SUCK, I find it hard to imagine you can disagree.

If we didn't have last year as an example of how things go up and down over a season, I'd be distraught, but maybe the lull in January is part of the winning formula. I just haven't seen any proof from Rierden that he can motivate the boys.

well that sucked, boys better pick it up for the 3rd

And Willy has been neutered so NOBODY hits any more.

Surreylily · « **Reply #52 on:** Monday January 14, 2019, 08:44:46 PM Eastern »

That was a rubbish 2nd period.

Mickstix · « **Reply #53 on:** Monday January 14, 2019, 08:46:23 PM Eastern »

Wellsir.. I think that'll about do it for me tonight. Team playin like ass, not getting any bounces, not winning any battles.

Only reason to watch the 3rd is to see if Reirden has any balls to shake it up. Kuzy definitely needs to be 3rd/4th line center for a while. Aaaaanyway, catch ya'll tomorrow, if I can stomach it.

we will be waiting with bated breath

seriously though, this 2nd period tonight is an example of what we’ve been seeing lately. And with this 6 game road trip coming up the Caps need to figure things out now before it’s too late

Yeah I've noticed that too! I mean I'd rather have Willy not hit all that much because he'll get an 82 game suspension for even just a love tap at this point...

But yeah we need some physicality and some snarl in our game. Plus smart simple plays, not trying to make highlight reel videos.

Eller has sucked this season.

apace41 · « **Reply #58 on:** Monday January 14, 2019, 09:06:33 PM Eastern »

Another Kuzy fail.

I was just reminiscing about the good old days, when watching a Caps game was enjoyable. I miss that.
