Not happy about this. Ziggy has been our most dependable Dman all year long. Kempney and Jenson make tons of mistakes and they continue to play because the Caps gave them contract extensions - plain and simple.  GMBM dictates that to Rierden and he is not enough of a veteran coach to say no.

    I agree. I really dislike the Siegenthaler scratch. It seems coaches don't want to ruffle any feathers by scratching a veteran. It's easier to scratch the younger player even though he is outplaying them.
     I am totally fine with the Leipsic scratch. Surprised it didn't happen sooner.

Well since we're discussing it here....


Quote from: waynerivers on Today at 05:53:46 PM (https://washingtoncapitalsfanforum.com/index.php/topic,666.msg33498.html#msg33498)I read on RMNB that the Caps may be interested in bringing Green back.    I'm hoping this is just BS being floated by somebody with no knowledge.  Green is EXACTLY the type of guy we do NOT need.  He doesn't even have any offensive skills left to speak of.  (10 points, -30 +/-)  I'd much rather have Jensen and that's saying something.  I also don't think Siegenthaler should be scratched for Dillon.  I'd sit Jensen, Orlov or Kempny ahead of him.


Amen Brother (on Green)Amen Brother (on Ziggs).  Although....I think the Caps have no intention of letting Ziggy go, because he has showed so much promise and he is hugely cap friendly right now.  He is the very best bargain D the Caps have right now and has played as well as any of the D this year.  I think they sit him due to his age and IF they are contemplating trading Jensen/Kempny/Orlov, sitting them would look bad or devalue them (if that's possible)I think they will hold onto Kempny.  Time will tell if he can recover to what we hope was true form (and not a career year last year).I had high hopes for Orlov (over the last 4 years), but he just isn't progressing or performing anywhere near his contract/cap hit.  Trading Orlov...or more accurately unloading his contract would have the biggest impact and give the most flexibility to the Caps moving forward.  I'd be okay with unloading him and giving Ziggy a spot and giving Fevergetter a shot at real playing time.Dillon will be a welcome addition to some much needed D skills, but he's just a rental (unless we unload Orlov).  Fucking Orlov makes roughly the same as Willy.....with about 1/10 the impact or potential.  You could go out and buy a real D with Orlov money.Go Caps

    Well he is trying to keep his percentage where it's at. If he misses the net it doesn't go against his shooting percentage.

And 74 had a shot from the right circle to try to go up 2 but decided to try to force feed Ovi instead.  Just play the fucking game.  He will get 700 when he gets it.  TJ has also passed up several chances and instead tried to feed Ovi when they've been on the ice together.

Another wasted night watching a team that didn't give a shit until the last 2 minutes.  You'd have thought they'd play hard to impress Dillon but no such luck.  Holts was great all night but whiffed the game winner after Ovi made a stupid "I want 700" move.  This team is as dumb as a bag of rocks and I see no way they don't get hammered by Pittsburgh on Sunday and no way they make the playoffs given their incredible downward trends.  That's 5 of 6 losses both overall and at home.  As I've said all night, "WE SUCK."

Totally with you on that, Mick!!
Hell, they’ve dropped the “urgent” playtime now, to less than half a period! And it wasn’t even THAT urgent looking to me!


It’s a shame that Holtz played great in regulation,  actually giving us a chance to stay in the game on an otherwise commonly lackluster night again, only to let in one he knows he should have had!
 Not that he got any help from Orlov, defending right in front of the shooter!!


 I did like our new defenseman!  I saw him handling some major business, just in front of the crease,  rendering his opponent, ineffective, as the puck passed in front of him for what would’ve been an excellent SOG!
 I only saw him have to put on the gas once or twice tonight, but he also looked fairly speedy!  Time will tell, we’ll see!

Just so many half-assed efforts.  Drive-by stick checks and I don't even think we had one true "hit" all night.   Glad I didn't by a ticket to this one.


Dillon got to see the true Dylan tonight.
Dillon routinely was paired with Burns and Karlsson, both of which are about 10x the Dman as our “Johnny Norris”.  It’ll be interesting to see “Johnny Norris” can up his game to come close to either them while Dillon is here.

this is only the second 3 game losing streak of the season, the first happened in games #2-#5 in October

     If you think that then you haven't watched the Sharks. Karlsson and Burns have been a mess.

Sure, their whole team has been a mess, much like us of late. 


Regardless, neither of them has a player that’s been in the top 3 of goals all year, and are still better all around Dman than “Johnny Norris”.
