GDT: Finally Hockey is Back - Caps vs Wild

[tycoonheart]

I would love to know what their thought process was behind trading for Mojo. At this point in his career he is a Hagelin clone. He brings nothing to the table.

 

[HTFN]

This is not defensively responsible.. it's offensively challenged.

When Hagelin is a 200 foot player, same same.

Hagelin was out for the season so they needed his replacement lol. GMBM blows

 

[DWGie26]

Looks like they at least moved Mojo to 3rd line and Wilson to first. Think that has been going on for about a period now.

Watching this team I sometimes think this is the guy behind the bench.

 

[PlushMinus]

Their next stretch of five games will be crucial in whether they can mount a challenge or not: @DAL, @ CAR, @ STL and a home-at-home vs. PIT. It's probably too late barring a total collapse. The Caps can probably just take four or five of thirteen and be in.

The scary thing is they could lose all of those games. All of those teams are playing well (or at least better than us).

Thankfully we have a couple of days for Lavi to "work through some things in the room"

Lavi looking like TR back there. Shoulda just stuck with TR and kept that clown show going.

But, the Islanders have the toughest schedule in the league going forward. Caps is 6th toughest

 

[pman25]

Another too many man penalty. Poorly coached squad. Really brutal performance coming off an ass kicking and long break. Not ready to play at all

I’m not sure what room he is always talking about, but at this point it must be one awesome looking room

 

[McVechkin]

I dislike PL more than TR but less than AO ha

Pathetic effort there

I don’t know, TR was bad.

 

[troyerlaw]

Impressively mediocre. You never thought for a minute — right from the start — that we might come back and win. Just a sloppy, complacent, lifeless effort, with a side dish of crappy goaltending

 

[Capitals40]

Pathetic effort there

Ovie did a big circle at the blue line before skating after the puck instead of just changing direction on the empty netter.

 

[caps4cup]

Lol. Outscored 11-2 in the last 2 games at home with absolutely no push back, energy, or effort. f***ing embarrassing.

Laviolette needs to lose his shit on them. They’re not an elite team but they’re a lot better than this.

 

[BallardEra]

What happened to the offensive game from the start of the season? It's like looking at two totally different teams right now.

 

[McVechkin]

Real excited to see PLs adjustments for Tampa haha

 

[Langway]

Inching closer to the worst points percentage among playoff teams. You can do it, guys!

 

[illpucks]

Why didn't they pull their goalie for a 6 on 4?

 

[caps4cup]

Should be a fun next one against Tampa. I’m sure the guys will really come out flying for that one!!

 

[pman25]

Doesn’t matter that much and it’s been beaten to death around here but why bother trading away those handful of picks + Sprong at the deadline? Just moves for the sake of moves.

Yeah, I don’t think sprong was the answer, but at this point I’d take all the picks I can get. I feel like we flushed em down a toilet for no reason

Players got slower as the season went on. That’s how older rosters work. I remember everyone saying OV looked like he had his legs again, he wasn’t fumbling the puck, he looked fresh. And he was fresh. Now he isn’t. It’s why so many of us wanted more balanced ice time early in the season because older players wear down.
