Yeah, but UFC is on and it for me this game was meaningless as they come, Seattle is just boring.
The last two games have been light years better that the last dozen(I didn't get to see the Leafs game). The last two games haven't provided anything to really complain about.
Better goaltending and solid specials and they’re winning again. Weird.

Yeah, some people just like to complain. They probably have frustrating lives and are just looking for a place where they can vent.

Vanecek is now at a .921 for the season, good for 9th in the NHL among 45 qualified goaltenders. He’s a bit lower in terms of save percentage above expected, at 15th.
A good stretch until the TDL will make me feel better, but they might just have their starter for the rest of the year.

Over 8000 players have played at least one NHL game. And OV is about to be number 3 out of 8000+ when it comes to goals. f*** we are so lucky.

Yup and OV is heating up again. He was such a large part of our early season success.

Win is a win! I don’t think they were playing all that bad. They eventually figured this game out and cashed in when they needed to.
Nice win with a tough road trip ahead.

The set up by Ovechkin on the first goal was really impressive, drew the D to him, nice pass and kept driving the net keeping them occupied.

Don’t recall hearing Jarnkrok’s name being mentioned at all last night. At the very least, he did not stand out to me. I get his history with Lavy May make him desirable but l’d rather just roll with the team we have then to give up assets that really won’t move the needle much.
Just looked. Jarnkrok played 16:28, -1, 1 shot, and one hit, and won 66.7% of face offs.
I’d still like to see a C/RW come in and Sprong go out. Boyd or Jarnkrok.
EDIT: See Boyd just signed for two years in PHX so i guess that leaves Jarnkrok. Haha.
He's probably the cheapest goalie with an above .910 save percentage aswell. Good value for money

He was maybe their third-best right shot in this game after the goal scorers Blackwell and Donskoi. Those two also killed penalties. He's fine. He'd bring more system reliability but he's not a player you pay a premium for. He doesn't particularly possess standout traits. If they just want an upgrade over McMichael then they already have it in Snively and perhaps also Protas. They want experience mostly but then that could be had for their third rounder or something if it's just a generic veteran they're after.
If they believe they need to invest more to get more out of Eller it may be that Eller is the issue.

Our current second round pick is the one we got from Winnipeg in the Dillon trade. That pick currently sits at about being the 45th pick in the draft which is higher than where the Caps made their first selection in the 21 draft. If they make a play for Jarnkrok, I’d only do a Sprong and no higher then a 4th round pick and that’s probably doing it at the 11th hour based on Francis not having better options.
Right now we have 13 forwards including Sprong. Sprong should be attractive to the right team. Could see separate moves to get to an end point. Or a three way trade.
I also think management likes McMichael more than we give them credit for. He always keeps his jersey.

Aw, I much prefer reading and posting in win threads, but I'm in the middle of the ocean with crap internet so I haven't watched a game in a while.

Have we ever felt that it’s Eller’s play this season that has stunted the third line and in particular CMM this season. I’ve always felt that Eller holds the puck too long which I would imagine can be quite frustrating to his wings.
