I like how Orpik is considered one of his great moves when his big contribution was not crapping the bed as a #6 defenseman in 2018 making 5.5 million a year (in a 70 mil cap era), one of his 5 years here. After helping walk the Pens to the ECFs on their way to a cup in 2016 and 2017 no less.
Yep. It’s time. They need a young, smart analytics type who’s not tied to this organization and eschews all the “plays the game the right way” tropes and is merciless about our roster composition. But I don’t think Ted will allow thatIf Caps decide to make big changes over the summer, I hope they at least consider canning GMBM. He built this roster — old, slow, and injury-prone as it is. And he was also the one who thought Todd Rierden would be better HC for this group than Trotz.
We havent won a playoff round since 2018, and now we’re going to miss the playoffs. GMBM bears some of the responsibility for that, it’s not just the players and coaches
Shanahan only got 40.42nd on the year.... I believe that ties him with Shanny for most all time by a senior citizen.
Depends on your measure…Shanahan scored 42 as a 37 year old….40 in his “37 season”…Shanahan only got 40.
