John Tucker

Not that it really matters anyway, but he's about the only physical presence we have on this team of marshmallows

This whole team is better on their knees!

And then there's the Caps broadcast talking about how great Thompson's shot is!! When? Warmup?

This is where an ACTUAL captain would get pissed and do something, anything, to get his team fired up. Oh wait, we don't have one of those

Unbelievable.... Good night everyone

Playing on the outside yet again

No, actually, they choose to call it when they want just like most garbage calls.

What a garbage call that was

That was a nice behind the back, no look pass in your own slot by Hall! Good Lord this guy

Can't believe I'm still watching this pillow fight. Instead of feeding crowd murmuring noises, can they pump in continuous boos?!?!?

That's my biggest concern trading him. Toughest part is going to be trying to find anyone that wants to play here.

Good point!! 🙂

In all honesty, what would his market value even be? I'd go all in on another Turgeon for Lafontaine type of a deal if there was another Lafontaine out there. But Eichel's value IMO has taken quite a hit.

Totally understand... I've managed to find other things that have become much more important these days. Unfortunately, they've lost me. The light at the end of the tunnel seems to always get further away with this franchise!

Why would anyone pay for a Covid test & ticket plus risk catching Covid in order to watch this crew. The real question is how many fans would show up wearing the other team's colors??

Yep... That's the team I'm accustomed to watching over the last decade... Might be awhile before I watch my 2nd game of the year. Pathetic franchise

Holy Zhitnik... Can any of these d-men ever hit the net?!!?!?

Cut short working around the house to sit and watch my first game of the year... Looks like I chose a bad one to watch!! Good Lord.

....And no heart

All starts with lack of intensity.

Botterill said his visa crap may not be ready in time and to not expect him til next week

If VO is out any length of time, I say call up Pilut, sit Rodrigues again, and roll out 4 d-pairings!! Assuming Frolik is unavailable Saturday of course... Maybe Erod would be pissed enough to just drive himself to Rochester!!

Since Ralph is such a positive guy... "hey boys, we've shown that we can play our best hockey in the 3rd period... when the other guys have a big lead... and decided to shut things down offensively... something we can build on boys... let's do it again to see if we can be consistent"... ?

Yep. Fewer teams. Ownership had a plan. Management had a plan. Team on the ice competed every night. May never see the playoffs again let alone compete for a cup. I know I'll never see it
