Post-Game Talk: Sabres @ Caps, 7:07pm

I don’t get the harshing on Siggy. Really think he’s been pretty serviceable. And like a shot hitting him in the butt is not his fault

One thing about Jensen is he likes to pinch in the offensive zone. When you look at his career stats, I would never guess he would do much of that.

The thing I have noticed about Jensen is that he doesn't play well without the puck. Gets caught watching the play. Decent with the puck.

It's mostly just being a rookie and that we like the stud prospects in Hershey. Growing pains.

rofl @ Siegs. just please get off this team.

You guys are being way too hard on this guy. Remember he is still very young. Say what you will but he is a step up from Djoos.

This. I think he'd benefit from more time dominating in Hershey.

Thank god Oshie is back out. It does suck because that probably means no discipline for the Saber.

Kempny no quit = goal

 

[IafrateOvie34]

Wilson with a great night with points.

 

[chilimac]

the Caps killed 7 of 8 PP's tuesday night, and Siegs and Gudas led all Caps in PK-TOI.

Gosh Buffalo, pull the goalie.

 

[Carlzner]

Fantastic game for No Skill Willy. What a hockey player

 

[Calicaps]

Oh man, I really want to see 13 get the hatty.

Thought it was a good save but it looks like Vrana just shot it into his pad.

I actually like that the organization is letting him work thru those growing pains here. Feel like what’s happening to him would happen to Fever or AA, and that it’s good that one of their top D prospects is getting experience in a scenario where it’s not costing the team anything standings-wise (which may itself evidence that he’s not such an aberration from NHL caliber play).

Love when tommy gets a goal

I’ve been hungover since we won the champ.... are the caps still good?

 

[AussieCapsFan]

I love reading the Bolts GDT's - their fans went from being the most arrogant bunch of "The Cup's as good as ours" to being totally demoralised about their team.
They have turned on the coach (probably with good reason), Vasi, Kucherov. It's hilarious.

There is only one problem with this team that stands out. I respect the fact that the coaching staff appears to be letting him work through it at the NHL level, doesn't mean it isn't frustrating to watch.

it shouldn’t be all that frustrating if you believe in giving youngsters time to develop.

come on shot hits the guy in the ass and everyone shits on him.

From June 7th 2018 until today is a damn long time to be hungover. I suggest a liver function test asap.

As a coach once said "The NHL is not a developmental league".

That being said as long as it doesn't cost games I can live with it. For now it is just causing bad goalie stats and differential.

 

[AtNightWeFly]

It's clear as day now that Todd is the anti-Barry. I appreciate that he trusts the rookies and even when he doesn't he still lets them play and figure it out without snarky post game comments.

They’re dominating...they can afford to play Seige. Hell they can afford another if they had one at F.

Barry was coaching for his next job. Todd is coaching for a long career here.

 

[Sam Spade]

Boooooooo no points for Ovie and Carlson. This game sucks.
