GDT: Caps vs Canadiens 7pm Apr 6

[Brian23]

4-1. They want Bedard. Lmao

Yanno, I'm actually not even happy about this. Seeing them quit so spectacularly is actually super disappointing. At least it cements Lavi being gone.

 

[Serial_Derecho]

I was a little concerned after the first period, but this is tanking at its finest.

 

[McVechkin]

Keumper was just not the right move to make. I would have much rather stuck it out for a year or 2 with a cheaper Sammy.

Man. What a prideless bunch of losers.

 

[pman25]

Two goals for Joel Armia? Good lord guys

 

[Capitals40]

I feel bad for Backstrom. He is so bad. Not an nhl center anymore. Just bad.

 

[hockeykicker]

Yay

Should have kept Sammy and still signed Keump. Letting him walk for nothing was a ridiculous emotional response.

 

[SecretaryofDefense5]

We suck again!

 

[Capitals40]

I feel bad for Backstrom. He is so terrible. Not an nhl center anymore. Just bad.

 

[RedRocking]

Kuzy looks like he’s trying to get thrown out, swinging his stick like a weapon

 

[PlushMinus]

Bunch of washed up scrubs getting beaten by an AHL caliber roster

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Well I can turn this off. Go Blue. maybe get to watch a future Capital

What is Caps record since January 1 against the rest of the league?

They were 21-13-5 as of Jan 1.

So that is 13-21-4 since. Not sure how that compares to the rest of the league, but has to be bottom 5

What were you expecting when you turned it on in the first place? Lol

Against the rest of the league ... compared to what? Their record against AHL teams? (A: Both suck.)

Sonny Milano right now:

Oh please - Samsonov wore out his welcome and was not popular with his team mates. Keeping him would have accomplished nothing.

More covid?

 

[um]

Lmao. They might have to fire Lavi with like 5 games left.

Are you kidding me?!?

Lavi is a fantastic tank commander.

It was a scapegoat decision. PL and GMBM needed someone to blame for their shortcomings and the goaltenders were the easy outs.

 

[Capitals40]

I know I'm stating the obvious. Our forwards, as a group, are amongst the least skilled in the league. Just terrible.

Eh, I think the skill is there, its the legs that are gone.

Just to add to this, using the NHLs NHL Stats page, if you do the date range under the “by game” tab, they are dead last in points since Jan 1.

No team has been worse this calendar year.

The Capitals are excellent at this whole tanking thing.
