I hope they lose this game so Barry can officially take his rightful place on the hot seat.

Even if they lose this game they still like 3-4 points back of division lead. Not even close to a hot seat

Don't like Vrana demotion. Don't like O'Brien in over Walker. Don't like Backstrom and Oshie remaining together.

Then I hope they lose the next 3.
Watching them get outshot 30-10 per period is unbearable. I cant find anything good about this team, even the PP is terrible.

 

[Bladerunner]

Usually not a fan of "worse is better" so... what? Trotz will be canned and we can acquire some "miracle" HC

Unless the team gets more healthy and some of the players jell this will be a bubble playoff team. I'd rather the Caps just make the playoffs than just miss. Who knows, maybe w/little pressure they could make a run. For example Holtby seems to play better as an underdog goalie than a front running one.

 

[hockeykicker]

yea if trotz is canned then rierden is head coach for next few years. its why they blocked teams from interviewing him

Caps win this one 17-15

Tonight we start a stretch of 9 games in 16 days. A mini road trip during this stretch and a back-to-back to close it.
10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24 and 25.

I don't care what the situation, just beat the pens. I hate that team, and can't stand losing to them. Tonight I don't care about development, cap space, demotions, who sits, who plays, who are coach is, or what we are going to do with Carlson at the deadline. Just beat this ass hole filled team!

Why shouldnt Vrana be demoted? He hasn't done much. I also have no problem with O'Brien playing over Walker. About Backstrom and Oshie. They are both struggling so I would separate them

Right on!,man. Pens are beatable, if Caps bring it tonight, they'll win, they can do it. The effort needs to be there.

10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24 and 25.

And that 9 game stretch will end just after Thanksgiving, with more than a quarter of the season played. Over 75% of the teams that are in a spot at this point, make it. Let's start getting some points.

We give them too much importance. They don't give a shit about us.

All I see is two points up for grabs against a division rival. No different than facing the Flyers or the Rangers.

We give them too much importance. They don't give a **** about us.

And with such a tight race in the East, these points matter, even though it's still relatively early.

Importance? They are 30 year old men called Penguins. They stole their swag from a Pee-Wee team most likely.
Get the 2 points or don't.

 

[ovikovy817]

First time in years against Pit, we can hear Joe B and locker and not this **** crew of NBC

 

[Hivemind]

Good hustle from the Eller line.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

3-2 good guys.

 

[maacoshark]

That is a weak penalty call

 

[Holtbyisms]

Kessel lost and edge and was falling thank god the refs gave us a makeup call. That was a joke.

 

[Hivemind]

Even weaker make-up call.

 

[Hivemind]

Caps are usually good 4on4, but this is one of the teams I don't take that trade against.

 

[maacoshark]

The officiating in this league is a joke
