Reidon is completely outmatched here.  He can’t come up with anything to counter

I saw that goal coming for a few minutes. The Caps clearly indicate this looseness and mindless play quite often before they get bitten. We suddenly had no aggressiveness trying to get the puck back.

Caps look more like they are trying not to lose than trying to win

Anyone who wasn't sure if the coach makes a difference watch this game. Fucking Rierden is going to tell us he liked how hard the team competed.  Well. they ain't gonna be competing this spring because they ain't gonna make the playoffs like this.  Fucking cheap assholes should have paid up and given Trotz the money he deserved.  Fucking Ted.  Just like the goddamn Lerners.  Saddled the Nats with Fucking Davey Martinez.  Two worthless piece of shit coaches.

Now I have to listen to Locker and Joe B suck the Islanders dicks all night long when the reality is WE ARE THE FUCKING CUP HOLDERS.  We just don't fucking play like it.  Back to the way we were pre-last year.  Playing scared and trying not to lose every night.  Get a goddamn fucking body in front of the net instead of being a bunch of weak ass pussies.

May is talking about getting pucks in front of the net, but that won't help when there are no bodies in front of the net. This team is DUMB!!!


ETA
We haven't had bodies in front of the net all night. A few passes through the crease and no one there to do anything with the puck.,

It is hard to imagine that this team has been unable to change their play once other teams have started to play them differently.  Does this coaching staff even watch the film?  Teams are clogging the neutral zone.  So what?  You dump the puck and play a heavy game.  We are much bigger than most teams and can wear them down.  Especially a team playing a back to back.  But Rierden is apparently too scared of the talent on this team to TELL them how to play. Instead he lets douchebags like Burakovsky and Kuznetsov dictate how the team is going to play.  As we get closer to the playoffs THIS is how the games will be and if he isn't going to change the style of play to what we did last spring we will be on the outside looking in come April.  PIT, CBJ and NYI ain't going anywhere -- we will have to earn our way in, and the Atlantic has a good top 4 as well.  If he can't change the way he coaches them we are fucked.

That's four loses in a row. I don't even remember the last time we did that.  Sharks will attack on Tuesday. We probably won't even have a snorkel.

Exactly!  We have hardly used our physicality this entire season. Absolutely stupid. You're right, that's how you make space for yourself with teams like this. Make them scared and looking over their shoulders.

Players are all the same.  Only the coach is different.  Just sayin'. 


Come on Todd.  Tell us about how well the boys competed.  Give me the great Jay Gruden line.


Dumb fuck.
