We just don’t look good right now. Energy and effort are so uneven.

Well I have more faith that Lavi will fix things than Todd..
Huh? His vast prior experience as a head coach, for starters. Plus his well-earned reputation as a hard-ass. That too sets him apart from TRBased on?

I think it’s safe to say the chara/Carlson combo doesn’t work, and the panik/Oshie/vrana line isn’t effective
We look worse since ovie came back. Then again schultz injury is probably part of the problem. He was playing really well. Wish fever would get a game or two. Probably will, based on roster volatility so far (and the # of Caps taking pucks to the face)
Getting Eller and Kuzy back will be good.
Hopefully Samsonov is able to pull his head out of his arse and be the goalie he showed flashes of a year ago.
Chara should be getting less ice. The dude is a gamer but he’s not a top pairing guy any more.
Orlov has been back for 2 now. Two days off then a game Sunday. If Orlov is still skating 3rd pair on Sunday, its more than just getting his wheels back. Ov played nearly 30 mins tonight. I would suggest that coach thinks 9 needs to bring more than he has.

Nothing against Vanecek, but Anderson should have started one of the games against the Sabres and this game against the Rangers. For the 2nd time, Joe B./Craig Laughlin on the Caps telecast said they were surprised Anderson was not given the start against the Rangers, as he has a good record against them and the Sabres.It would be absurd for me to think I know more than the coach, but I am concerned about how much he is playing some of our guys. Surely Chara needs a game off to rest or at least reduce his minutes for a few games.
Vanacek as well - at the very least start Anderson for a game and if he is awful then VV can sub in.
I would much rather we lose a couple of games at this part of the season than over-work some players and have them gassed going into the playoffs. Even though there are only 56 vs 82 games, it's a much more compressed schedule and there's no Xmas, All Star break.
