GDT #12 Capitals vs Flyers February 7 @ 12:00

Other then the 4GA's in 40 minutes they look pretty good!   


See if they can muster a point or two here and not waste a 4 goal effort from the scoring line.

We're gunna need an OV hat trick here

[Chaos43]

  I thought that goal was a bit of a softy

Anderson sucks. Wish Hank was able to play

[DC_1908]

    I haven't liked Eller and Panik together at all this season.

Ive never been a big, or a, Eller fan, but your right, he aint been doin good this year at all.   Granted, he probably played before he was ready today.


Either way, our organizational depth at forward has been exposed to say the least

[alta]

putting Anderson in was a dumb move

[Surreylily]

Great PK

Hence "Taxi Squad"

    Agreed. We could have put a cardboard cut out in net. If we did the score would still be 4-4.

    Agreed. Our forward depth is very weak. We already had decent depth on the back end and added more this season. You would think we would trade some of that depth for a forward prospect. We should try to sell Orlov.

[Chaos43]

Wtf kind of rebound control is that? Kick that puck to the corner.

[Mickstix]

Welp.. All she wrote.  2 goal lead, 4 goals on the board = regulation loss is just super weak. Life support from those games they scored points in early.

[alta]

joke

[Chaos43]

     What can you do? 3 forwards showed up. The other 9 looked like AHLers

[Surreylily]

ho hum.

[Chaos43]

And goaltending wasn't great.

[DC_1908]

    Agreed. We could have put a cardboard cut out in net. If we did the score would still be 4-4.

Normally id agree, but, we have a rookie goalie thats played 9 of 11 games with 6 worthless forwards playing a fast transition system theyve only played in for a couple months.


If someone needed to be "blamed", it needs to those fuckin DUMBASS' Suzy & Sammy. 


VV could in fact be better than Samny, but this would be a game we need someone with more than 9 career games.


Im damn near thinking trading Sammy to get a forward over 6'2+, 210+ forward that understands D is  part of the game, & serviceable vet backup, or just bring Copley up.


Actually, that sounds like a damn good idea

    I actually was hoping the Caps would have traded Sammy 2 years ago and gave Holtby an extension.
     I thought there was way too much hype on Sammy before he came to North America. Saying he was the best goalie in the world that wasn't playing in the NHL. Well I haven't seen it yet. He is a very athletic goaltender and can make some ridiculous saves because of it and that fact that he doesn't give up on a play. But he isn't very good fundamentally and I havent seen an improvement since he has gotten here.
    Right now Vanecek is better with the fundamentals than Sammy but he isn't as big or as athletic.  I don't think any of our goalies can carry a team into and through the playoffs.

Agree on Sammy & Holtby, & I havent seen Sammy live up to fuck all either.


Regardless,I ,with the aid of Jack Daniels, am convincing my self that we should send him to worst team that will take him (granted the worst team that will give us the most for him), and run with VV and Copley.  Really though, that piece of Eurotrash gets given a starting spot after an HOFer needs heart surgery & he doesnt have the GOD DAMN COMMON COURTESY to follow protocol everyone else, particularly STARTING FUCKING GOALIES have to!


Just god damn un-American!!
