I'm perfectly fine with Reirden ruining some other team not named the Capitals.

Great article over at RMNB about Rierden sitting Jaskin because of a goal "he let it" at the end of a PK.

Pretty f'n tired of Rierden selectively picking out 3rd and 4th liners for mistakes and yet nothing happens to Kempny, Orlov, Niskanen, or any of the forwards or centers when they mess up.

This team has problems, but Jaskin is far from the glowing example of one and yet this is the second time he isolated him for discipline.  He has a stick penalty a couple of days ago and he was benched the rest of the period while Kuzy did the same dumbass penalty and he was "benched" yet still sent out for the PP.
Yes, Conno scored two goals, but he also had a ridiculously stupid stick penalty in our offensive zone with 3 seconds left in the game which led the winning OT PP goal.

It takes no balls to call out a 4th liner.  Take a sweater away from Orlov of Niskanen or Kuzy if you really want to show your fair and serious.

Let's be honest.. Aint no coach in the league taking sweaters from top 6/4 players.. They may get demoted or miss some shifts, but scratched? I think sitting Kuz for the rest of the period the other night was more than I've seen from a Caps coach, ever.. I wish he'd scratch Kempny.. Did he get his bell rung lately? Dude been making some odd choices, then the 2 mystery blown tires.. Connolly would be sitting as well, after that retarded slash penalty. (His 2nd of the game btw)

So here's a somewhat interesting tidbit which I'm sure will have no meaning and lead to absolutely nothing.


Joel Quenneville's played his last season as an NHL player for...
the Washington Capitals.  I did not know that.






Here's a thought....How about he ends his NHL coaching career with the same club he ended his playing days with.....a coaching career that turns out to be a highly productive, winning, illustrious coaching career that culminates with 3 Stanley Cup rings in his first 5 years of coaching this team  :uh-huh: :clap:
(i didn't want to seem greedy with 5 rings in 7 years) ;)

I hear ‘ya Mick, but he needs to stop the BS about being responsible and disciplining players when all you’re doing is taking a sweater from a hard working 4th liner.
