Caps start a 5 game home stand tonight.
-
Pacioretty in, will line up with Strome and Phillips. Lapierre is the scratch.
:huh:
Also, Edmundson out for “maintenance”, TvR in.

Get em' Max!! Paci's 35 years old, coming off double achilles tears. This should be fun. :wackysmile: :raspberry:
And I thought Oshie was about ready?? Carbs said he skated in full gear the Wednesday before Christmas? That was 2 weeks ago.. Anyway, if he ever does recover, Paci/Strome/Oshie might be a decent line if they can stay healthy..
Team really needs to waive Kuzy and find a play maker though. He does little more than get his cardio workout in on a nightly basis.

Morning chaps.

Hello fat juicy rebound. :clown: :poop:
-
it would appear the Caps have hit the cap ceiling, again. This despite the $9M that Backy freed up. Bringing back Oshie will be interesting.

PK time. :wackysmile:

Caps are out of gas, too much hockey being played in the last 4 weeks thanks to the nhl schedule makers.
-
Well at least we got Paci back! :rofl: :clown: :poop:
-
what a joke, Caps get a PP with 8 seconds to go, which takes tonight’s PP % from 66% to 50%.
-
and.. Caps were %41 on faceoffs tonight
-
Yup. Welp.. Friday at 7 vs the Hurricanes. Can't wait. :-\
