Bobs been there since the beginning and no Varlamov won't be there. They already have 3 goalies.

the chemistry between Ovi and Tikhonov, is hard to ignore..does anyone else want to see him in a caps jersey next year? #10 is an available jersey number. guy is flying out there, what was that? 5 pts by him today?

 

[Dream Big]

Orlov broke his hand. On his way back to Washington.

Sad.

That's not good for Orlov or the Caps.

Why is he coming back to Washington now? Doesn't the Russian hockey federation look after players injured while on their team?

He has 1 more year left on his deal with SKA. I think he'll be UFA in the NHL then (27-year-old). He said he thought about returning before signing a two-year deal with SKA a year ago.

Also, Burmistrov and Kuzya play pretty well together and Burmi is friends with Orlov.

Salaries in the KHL:
Tikhonov 3.3m (13% tax applies)
Burmistrov 2.5m (13%)
Komarov 2m (30%)

Haven't been following the news for some weeks so no idea if this is Caps relevant, but Grabovski with 2+1 in a 5-2 win over Germany, giving Belarus great chances to make playoffs.

 

[WNY to NoVA]

the ovi just blew out his knee playing for mother russia, maybe the caps can grab mcdavid?

 

[trick9]

Ovechkin injured... looked pretty serious as he had to be helped off the ice.

**** sake.

Ovechkin took a hit at the red line from a German player, was down 2 minutes and put no pressure on left foot/leg. Down tunnel.

 

[Burakovsky95*]

**** me.

[Burakovsky95*]

That wasn't a ****ing penalty?

 

[stanleycaps18]

Ffs

 

[AwesomePanthers]

Søberg has let in 3 goals in 2 games at the WC, against teams like Sweden and Czech Rep.

Had almost 98 SV% today. Gonna be a great goaltender!

 

[Raikkonen]

Well. ****.

 

[SimplySensational]

Gruby player of the game for Germany. Ovechkin player of the game for Russia, I don't know why, pretty much every skater in the game thought they could pass through German sticks, only person who deserved it was Vasilevski.

Bad sign though that Ovechkin wasn't to receiver the player of the game award or handshakes.

 

[stanleycaps18]

Russian Machine is broken.

 

[Calicaps]

Per Katie, taken in an ambulance to the hospital.

Say it ain't so Doc.

 

[FloridaCap]

Honestly, why do NHL players still play in the World Championships?

Nobody cares if you win, and all you do is risk injury. See Ovechkin and Eric Staal.


****ing ****.

WCs seem more important to Russian players than North American.
