GDT: Caps at Buffalo. 1pm EST

[Holtbyisms]

There we go boys that's more like it.

 

[ClevelandCapsfan]

Good day to have dropped Cozens from my fantasy team and -add Dawson Mercer.

 

[lotty83]

there's no way in hell Lavi gets brought back. What are the chances of BB or Trotz returning here? I wouldn't hate either of those signings

 

[RedRocking]

Alright BMac - no games until Wednesday. Get to work! All items must go!

 

[SherVaughn30]

Smith showing his defensive skills.

That shouldn't be Smith's man to cover. It's one of the d-man's responsibility to cover around the net.

 

[shtorm2005]

Well, defense weren't there today. Otherwise, 4 goals would be a win most of the times.

 

[SherVaughn30]

McCarthy's man-to-man system is garbage with this roster.

 

[IafrateOvie34]

So do they wait for after Ducks game or sooner?

 

[Langway]

Alright BMac - no games until Wednesday. Get to work! All items must go!

I shudder to think how they'll be defensively post-sell. Could be a lot of games like these. Hell for goaltenders. Not like most of the forwards help out either.

McCarthys man to man system is garbage past 2015.

 

[BallardEra]

Gonna be a crawl for Ovie to hit 894. Having a good team is a huge help. Having a bad one makes it that much tougher.

 

[IafrateOvie34]

Have to think this will be an interesting summer.

 

[Capsman]

Irwin and Mcilrath being in there speaks to either the utter failure of Maclellan’s drafting or (ie Alexiev, Iorio, Johanssen, et al are no better) or it speaks to Laviolette sabotaging our youth.

Damn the torpedos, full steam ahead!

Just have to keep telling ourselves it’s all worth it to finally get a top ten pick.

It’s on the coaches who love vets and Locker also believes this BS too.

So how many of you will be refreshing this site the next few days?

The last we got Forsberg and Wilson.

Of course. Still, hard to figure they'll actually move all three of Jensen/Gus/TVR. Then again, I thought they'd hammer out finding common ground with Orlov so go figure.

Lol if TVR, Jensen and Gus all get traded what's our blue line look like?

Fehervary-McIlrath
Irwin-Ness
Johansen-Carlsson(Gabriel)
Alexeyev

Yup, the draft is the only way to really start to rebuild this sinking ship. Lots of good C’s at the top this year - hopefully find an eventual replacement for Kuzy.

Good for finishing the season tankage.

 

[Langway]

Nardella? IDK. Puke city.

 

[Holtbyisms]

Somebody see if Matthew Yeats is available.

 

[AlexBrovechkin8]

Bottom three game score performers, in order of suck.

1. Matt Irwin
2. Dylan McIlrath
3. A guy whose name rhymes with Evgeni Boozeschmetzov

 

[SherVaughn30]

All coaches except Scott Allen should be fired. Fraudsythe never would have been the PP coach, if this team didn't have OV/Oshie. McCarthy doesn't make any of our d-men better. The Finnish goalie coach in Hershey is better than Scott Murray. Lavi changes lines so much, he kills offensive chemistry. Give me a coach again like Boudreau, who actually enjoys coaching and enjoys coaching the players.

Sonny Milano should be in the shootout lineup every time the opportunity presents itself.

Ok including Iorio in this is a no, imho. Too early.
