There it is!Watch the wings tie this up and then lose in OT. Points for EVERYONE! Except caps
Which is the only reason to be optimistic at all. Because we aren’t taking care of our business!The issue is the East sucks and nobody really wants the spot.
Only the Pens could play that kinda D leading late in the 3rd. Yikes.
Hey man, stop trying to kill my mood, haOr win a cup in 2017 with that type.

Alexyev was strong tonight. Moved the puck a lot quicker. Took some good shots. Much more decisive. Good sign. Assuming his fancies match the eye test given the game puck.View attachment 850157
A bad night, but there was a shining star in the void and his name is Alex Alexeyev, who nabs the prized game puck.
No honorable mentions.

now lost 7 of the last 8. They don’t deserve to make it in playing like this down the stretch.
Yeah. 6’4. 230 or so. First round pick. Would be great to see him come around. Caps will have a touch decision here. Sign a 1LD (moves Fever to 3LD) or trust Alexyev to be 3LD and sign depth in Hershey (Aktell and Johansen).We can only hope he improves. Defensemen take time and of course his draft status is something else we hope factors in.
Agreed. Beyond whatever cap space they'll have open up...I don't know how you run it back and not make additional subtractions when they've had a playoff spot put on a platter for them. They've botched it and the task won't get any easier next season most likely.What is disappointing is that they are playing their worst hockey to end the season. You would hope that they would be competitive, and they haven't been.
I mean, the Flyers gave up 9 to the Habs just two nights ago. All of these teams mostly suck. But as you noted, the Caps' inconsistency is to be expected.All the other teams in race for final two spots showed up ready to play tonight. Even the frickin Flyers won. Caps alone look like they’re running on fumes

One issue I’ve hard with Carbery is playing some of his d-men into the ground. Carlson looks exhausted. I know you want to go down swinging with your best but you have to distribute the minutes more.
f***ing Isles win.
