[troyerlaw]

Looked pretty offside to me...

Me too

 

[hockeykicker]

connolly out for game with upper body injury per caps

if i had to guess its a concussion

 

[Capsman]

That DSK play was onsides.

 

[TheMusturdTiger]

Dumpster fire

 

[Capitals40]

No radical trades please. If this road trip continues this badly hope there is not a knee jerk reaction with players.

Well, I am watching a shitty stream on my computer. I thought he dragged his foot but i guess not

depending on how long connolly is out, i wouldnt be suprised if they made a trade. especially since burakovsky and graovac out long term too. need a depth forward

 

[troyerlaw]

@hockeykicker I agree with you. I feel like there is zero expectations for the team to perform well, and with no pressure... I bet these guys start rolling the lines and playing with a ton of weight off their shoulders. Everyone is expecting them to lose and I betcha they come out and win tonight.

Nope

 

[Capitals40]

Nope

We have days to practice and to work on intensity and come out and play like we dont give a shirt..out captain doesnt want to get his nose dirty..nor does anyone else

 

[AtNightWeFly]

I feel bad for all those Caps fans in the audience in Vancouver. Wasted their money.

 

[GoCaps2004]

Gudbransson is a f***ing bitch

 

[AtNightWeFly]

Grubranson bear hugged Willy for the entire fight. Lame ass.

 

[troyerlaw]

Nothing is working out tonight

 

[troyerlaw]

Yup. Show some heart, jesus

 

[troyerlaw]

I know what wilson was trying for. But 4 min PK not what we need here

 

[Capitals40]

Wilson has to protect the entire team..everyone else is non physical.

That's really going to save us I understand that we're without 8 impact players compared to last year, but man, even the players who must be trying to impress the coaches look like they don't want anything. Sure, Backstrom and Niskanen coming back will conceal this for some time, but you can't change the heads of ourcore overnight. It's time to burn this to the ground and rebuild.

And good job Wilson. When the game is lost, at least show that you haven't firgotten who injured Connolly. He could teach the rest of the team a coupla things.

 

[GoCaps2004]

Ovi, if youre gonna take a penalty like that make it more worth it

 

[peterthegreat12]

Possibly the worst team in the league right now. And no, if Backstrom played tonight they would have still lost.

 

[Bladerunner]

He showed some snarl, with Wilson out of the game. More than you can say for the rest.

Really? Come on, they are bad sure but worst in league? Not sure if you even watch Montreal or Arizona or even Edmonton

Oh, I do. That is the scary part. The Caps d-core is by far worse than any other teams you mentioned.

What?

The Canadiens defense is sooooo bad. Alzner makes them even more of a joke

I would take that top four over the Caps, any day of the week.

We’re right there with them.

How chiasson is on our PP1 is beyond me.

Even with the injuries, another embarrassing blowout should not be occurring this soon after the one in Philly.

Gonna get worse before it gets better, is my guess.

I think trotz is gone by mid-December.
