Post-Game Talk: Sens @ Caps, 7PM

[CapitalsCupReality]

1. Malamud isn't Russian, he's from Moldova.
2. He is an attention seeker, he will say anything to stir the pot and create controversy. Just like when he said that few KHL teams were interested in signing Shipachyov after he left Vegas.
3. Malamud has a political agenda, his view is tainted for sure.

Character assassinated.....well done.

I will assassinate Malamud's character any day if you ask me to
My least favourite sports writer for sure.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

But he has to coach the team? Unless your gonna say that quenville did nothing for the Hawks and it was all the gm

The growing ‘vibe’ from some fans is starting to feel like “they won DESPITE Trotz”. We’re seeing the mental coping mechanism gearing up for the end of Ovy’s Caps career.


We’ve gotta stop posting....this many pages is a loss for sure. /cry

So what you all saying is hockeykicker would have coached them to 50 wins?

I said more not all props. Trotz did very well with that great team, he's doing jack shit with this lesser one.

Thank you, I should've done some research but it came to mind when I read that comment haha

He's just telling the truth!

I’d say 30 easily.....you can fill out a lineup sheet and instruct your assistants to deal with O &D, special teams and observe the rest right?

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

I really don’t know, but has the guy never given accurate info? I’d seen reposts of his tweets in the past that seemed “connected” with their content.

 

[Langway]

I’d love to know why GMBM didn’t make a change in the offseason.

Speculation? Inside knowledge? Who knows. Wouldn't be surprising, though.

If you want to know more about the guy, shoot me a PM and I'll be happy to discuss it more in depth with you

Are there attractive females involved? That's a deal breaker

He wouldn't have any press credentials if he didn't give accurate info at least from time to time. I'm not saying that everything coming out of his mouth is a lie, but he has a pretty clear agenda against Ovechkin and the Caps, and even their fans. Yes, that moron hates us too.

 

[maacoshark]

But the point is, he did an amazing job as coach and won us 50 games in multiple seasons. You all are reading too much into quotes. You've never said one thing and done the other?

I agree. Trotz is on the hotseat because its the first time the team has really struggled since he has been here. We all knew this was coming with us losing several players in the off season and having to go with rookies and borderline NHLers.

 

[maacoshark]

This is all cancelled by his inability to adjust his strategy in a playoff series. He's a good, not great coach.

A bit of a hate on for Trotz?

It’s interesting I remember seeing his rant tweets, but didn’t know Chad Dukes interviewed him on radio too...


Hockey reporter puts Alex Ovechkin, Capitals owner Ted Leonsis on blast

 

[hockeykicker]

[hockeykicker]

so do we love trotz again orrrr

 

[twabby]

I don’t get why Stephenson is on the 4th line but otherwise it’s ok?

 

[hockeykicker]

 

[ovikovy817]

IIRC when the caps got eliminated last a spring a Russian beat reporter Slava Malamund?? was on the radio up here (Toronto) and he was going off on Ovi and the caps and Ted and how he controls what mostly comes out to the press and doesn't take to negative press and stuff it was pretty interesting but I'm not sure I buy too deep into it lol if you can find the radio clips take a listen it was interesting

Malamud hates everything that comes from Russia.

Those stats were 2 years ago.

 

[hockeykicker]
