Am I the only one not all that stoked for this game? Despite no Caps game for last 3 days.
Bearkowski on their 4th line. Is he in the doghouse again?. Well I looked it up and apparently he has had a slew of serious injuries one after another over the last two+ seasons; broken ankle, broken thumb, torn groin, broken bone upper body, different broken bone upper body. Damn guy has had shit luck. Literally got serious injury out rest of year last year on his very 1st game back from previous injury. He's played all of 9 games this year.
I expect we get Lindy in goal tonight? Although maybe not...maybe start Kuemper then Lindy/Kuemper split the weekend back to back
-
Every game Phillips plays makes me question the whole organization. Are you telling me that there is nobody at Hershey, who is tearing it up, that is better than a smurf dust-mop??
Besides being a dumb move, it has to be demoralizing for the guys at Hershey that have been playing really well and have worked their whole life for a shot at the NHL.

word is it’s Kuemper
-
word is it’s Kuemper
Kuemper in.
Wilson game time decision.
Ovie game time decision.
Kracken on a heater;
7 straight wins and 8 wins, no losses and 2 ties in their last 10.
This could get ugly quick.
Then again, I didn't like our chances against LAKings Sunday and then won, so .....
[size=78%]Wilson game time decision.[/size]
-
Sandin has been moved to IR to make space on the roster for Oshie.
When Sandin and Milano are healthy Caps are going to have to send two guys down to Hershey, assuming no one else got hurt.
-
well if Ovi, Oshie and Kuzy were playing at the level we expected them to.....we wouldn't even be talking about Lapierre or Phillips
Whats wrong with Sandin? Thought he was just sick
-
Official word on Sandin is still illness. At least I don’t recall any word from the team other than illness. But there is this..

Willy is not on the ice for warmups, OV is..
-
Yep, just saw Ovi on the ice. If Willy can't go, our fucked meter just shot up to around 80%. :-(
-
It’s official, Willy out Lapierre in
-
well that aint a good swap
-

He ain't "my boy". :raspberry: He shouldnt get any closer to the ice than driving the zamboni at AHL games. :angry:
Bloke's a liability.

And there's the shit the bed 2 goal lead again. :clown: :poop:
-
Lots of intercepted passes it seems.
-
Lots of lack of scoring goals, again.
-
:poop: :poop: :poop: :poop:
-
:bad:
-
Another home loss. Back2back vs the Rangers next. Get ready, it's almost cellar time.
-
that sucked
-
That was rubbish.
As much as I can blame K for being a leaky sieve, you can't win if you don't score at the other end.
Lots of blame to go around tonight.
Night all
:yawn:
-
Stand on your head or LOSE!!! Same story every night.
-
Early games Sat and Sunday Lil. 1pm
Catch ya then. :sick:
-
yep...that was ugly.
Not blaming K, but...okay, Im blaming K. Cant allow 2 goals in the first 6 shots. Deflates a team that knows it has scoring issues.
We actually had some good scoring chances, but that's pretty much the same story...chances don't mean much.
Good on Patches...1st goal in a full year
FFS Kuzy looked like he was skating at a mandatory charity event he didn't want to be at. Really made me wonder if he's nursing something other than a bad attitude.

Three teams with under 100 goals scored:
Chicago
San Jose
Washington
Yippee.
