3 shots = 3 goals for Holtby. WTF!!!!
Get mad if you want, but without Korn, Holtby is trash.
a couple things, we don’t have to worry about Holts contract breaking the bank like Dylan’s did. And maybe the Caps can trade him to the islanders where Korn is to save them even more cap space.
as far as Reirdon goes, even Einstein would’ve been called an idiot if he said err ummm every damn sentence
I really wanted Samsonov to start this game, but I can totally understand giving some respect to Holtby and letting him play. I would have pulled after the 2nd goal on two shots, but since the defense was crap on that 2nd goal I can see waiting until 3rd goal. I do believe that Holtby has lost that privilege from here on out. I felt pretty strongly about Samsonov playing today against the Avs. I do have to add that the team in front of Holtby has SUCKED ASS today.

Oops, Early start wasn’t it?Yep.. And no national tv, for some reason?

That heavy forecheck and physical play has to be a regular feature, not just something trotted out because you're getting throttled in your own rink. The Caps have good size and need to use it much more consistently. When that happens, opportunities present themselves.
MASN is fukin inept, I now have baseball on 106.7 and 104.5, one of them is supposed to be the hockey game
Got too cute with the passing.. Kuzy still rather make a pass than score a goal. Fucking dope. I hope we don't score anymore now. Sam with the shitty play behind goal, but Holtby deserves this L..
This livestream is great.

how’s that work while I’m in the kitchen trying to make dinner
The next several games is gonna show what Rierdon is capable of, and hopefully Ted is capable of seeing it too
Oops, Early start wasn’t it?
. . . That’s what I said 🤣
Yeah, maybe someone should have told you (and Holtby) :P
Clearly, the Caps are capable of playing a shut-down, physical game and dominating opponents, as we saw in the first two games. Their biggest problem is Reirden, a soft-touch coach ill suited for this veteran team that needs a tough voice to keep them focused and playing hockey. Terrible mistake letting Trotz walk. They're going nowhere as long as this guy is at the helm. (They have the same problem in Tampa, where Cooper is a mild-mannered guy, who just stands there while his team is lollygagging around out on the ice, playing pretty-boy hockey.) Read the recent article on Brind'Amour and you'll understand why Carolina is in first place and plays a hard-nosed game.

The real question is if Reidon is capable and willing to do that, or if he’s just a yes-man
