I can’t wait for Lavi to regurgitate his “we’re going through some things in the room” quote for the 5th time this season

Jesus I miss Nisky so much. He should come back and teach some of these guys how to defend the front of the net.
And eller and OvieBrutal game for Kuznetsov and Fehervary.
I think he protects himself better than Green.John Carlson has turned into Mike Green.

Kudos.The loss extends Washington's home ice losing streak to six straight, all in regulation. It's the Caps' longest home losing streak since they moved to downtown D.C. nearly a quarter of a century ago....
The last time the Caps lost six straight home games in regulation, they were getting their mail in Landover, Maryland and they had yet to play in their first Stanley Cup playoff game. From Oct. 14-Nov. 11, 1981, the Caps lost seven straight home games, all in regulation.
I stopped watching complete games about a month ago. If I’m going to watch bad hockey I want it to be going somewhere. I want it to be kids developing, a team building. I don’t want to watch a team going nowhere with no future, get worse.For the past few weeks I'm watching games until the first goal by the opponent.
It happens quickly in the game.
Then I can watch the score in the NHL app, move forward to see the goals and that's all.
Was surprised to see that they've scored 3 goals.
Honestly pretty apathetic about all of it right now. Too much other shit going on to get too worked up about it.
And Ted does not really care about that. He thinks we’ll pay big bucks for seats to watch an increasingly immobile Ovie pursue the goal-scoring record. Did you like that Ovie goal with one minute to play against NY in a 4-1 loss. Welcome to the future.They’re not a team right now.
. Too much other shit going on to get too worked up about it.
Toronto must have beaten out 3 icings last night and turned them into near scoring opportunities.Maybe the need a full system switch maybe not as radical as Hunter Hockey but start trapping more. It is obvious they cannot handle the top teams speed. Amazed how many odd man breaks come out of no where.
Fever, Jensen, Orlov, and TVR are not slow. Schultz (when playing) is not slow. I don’t think defensive speed is a general problem, it just looked accentuated last night because of the opponent.Just back from game. Brutal. Most crowded i have seen the building this year though.
Lots of things to pick at, but the biggest thing is our defense is slow and loses puck battles. Orlov was worst i have seen him. Fever is gassed for sure losing puck battles like he did to start the Rangers game. Kempny is also really bad right now. Turns everything into a puck battle even when it shouldn’t be. Just no flow.
Well the entire team has sucked in 2022. But I'd say Ovi likely overproduced to start the year and is now underproducing to levels that I think are somewhat unlucky. His on ice shot % has dropped significantly in the new year, the lowest amongst all skaters which i don't think sustains itself. More goals should go in soon, i would hopeHas Ovi actually started a decline this season? Don't get me wrong, he started hot but he seems different now than he did before Christmas.
I don't think he gets there. Gordie is the goal now.And Ted does not really care about that. He thinks we’ll pay big bucks for seats to watch an increasingly immobile Ovie pursue the goal-scoring record. Did you like that Ovie goal with one minute to play against NY in a 4-1 loss. Welcome to the future.
Agree with your last point wholeheartedly
I dunno man. This just seems like more. But you are likely right.Well the entire team has sucked in 2022. But I'd say Ovi likely overproduced to start the year and is now underproducing to levels that I think are somewhat unlucky. His on ice shot % has dropped significantly in the new year, the lowest amongst all skaters which i don't think sustains itself. More goals should go in soon, i would hope
