Post-Game Talk: Chili Bowls @ CheeseSteaks 7:37PM

[troyerlaw]

There’s zero urgency when we bring puck up ice on PP

 

[Portable Mink]

This is probably the worst game of hockey ive watched in a long time. Disgusting effort.

 

[ALLCAPSALLTHETIME]

3rd game in 4 nights.

Some time between games now. Work on that terrible PP.

 

[AtNightWeFly]

Flyers PP sucks too.

 

[peterthegreat12]

They lost to that Flyers line up. They need to show up to win games.

 

[McVechkin]

Absolutely pathetic showing tonight

 

[troyerlaw]

Everybody played like crap, except Hathaway. Hart outplayed Holts. Our PP is dead in the water right now.

 

[mad4comp]

Hard to believe this team has played like this for over a month now and are still comfortably in 1st

That's what elite skill does. It kind of eliminates all the bad coaching, shit hustle etc... Most coaches would have this team up near the top of the standings with this kind of roster. Unfortunately when the playoffs start, the shit coaching will get exposed and we'll end up losing to teams like Carolina and CBJ (if they make it. Quite a shame really that we didn't at least attempt to give Trotz more money.

Flyers coming off one of the longest road trips in the league and played last night. Not a great excuse.

 

[IafrateOvie34]

Don't have to listen the garbage NBCS at least.

You know they wont.

 

[ALLCAPSALLTHETIME]

A well deserved loss.

Do better against New Jersey.

 

[StrikingDistance]

You know they wont.

they work on it, but it looks the same at practice.

Casual stroll through the park of carelessness.

 

[Capsman]

Extremely easy PP to defend if you have the personnel. Teams that are not aggressive, we make them pay. If they are aggressive and disciplined, we are toast.

Whatever. Flyers played better. Caps were flat. C'est la vie.

 

[AtNightWeFly]

They absolutely must address the PP situation after this debacle. Can't hide from it anymore.

 

[peterthegreat12]

Totally agree. All teams have tough schedules logistically and find ways to win.

 

[ALLCAPSALLTHETIME]

Totally agree. All teams have tough schedules logistically and find ways to win.

Caps have had a brutal schedule and more often than not, they've found a way. They didn't tonight.

Moving on...

Sure. That wasn’t my argument.

 

[Empty Goal Net]

They ain’t winning this one and don’t deserve too. 5 powerplays...nadda. That is the game.

5 PPs ... they were worse than nada, they were -1. It's bad enough they could not pot at least one, they gave up a shortie! THAT'S the game!

Extremely easy PP to defend if you have the personnel. Teams that are not aggressive, we make them pay. If they are aggressive and disciplined, we are toast.

Makes you wonder why they don't have a variant PP style to use against the aggressive teams. It's like they're using 5 Jensens ... omg, I have the puck, where do I pass? ... when 2 or 3 of the PKers are glomming onto the puck carrier.

 

[tenken00]

Gotta practice that slingshot even harder no doubt.

 

[Foots]

Caps need to fix the poweplay.

 

[TRASHCAT]

That's what elite skill does. It kind of eliminates all the bad coaching, **** hustle etc... Most coaches would have this team up near the top of the standings with this kind of roster. Unfortunately when the playoffs start, the **** coaching will get exposed and we'll end up losing to teams like Carolina and CBJ (if they make it. Quite a shame really that we didn't at least attempt to give Trotz more money.

wasnt about money ffs

 

[Corby78]

Caps need to fix the poweplay.

you fix it by never doing it again.

 

[SherVaughn30]

Forsythe has no excuses. This is one of the most talented PP's in the NHL! He doesn't have answers when OV/Oshie are completely neutralized.
