Ovechkin with enough gas to get Washington into the playoffs... and that's it.

Zero points and 5 shots in 4 games.

I think we would have done more damage to the Rangers. Maybe even steal a game or two. Oh well.

They just keep recycling these washed up coaches. It's lazy GM-ing.

No love lost between Bert and Marchand.

I feel bad for Matthews. He's trying, his team is built a little like Detroit -- to outscore opposition, but with weak defense and goaltending.

Avs had 45 shots or something. At least that's understandable. I don't think Georgiev will last the series. Considering that Bednar threw him under the bus already after one game, yeah, probably not. Or, who knows, maybe this type of "motivation" works for Georgiev and he'll turn into Gig...

Calls Johansson a puck-moving machine, but wants to re-sign a guy who was -16 for the year, whose primary contribution was on the PP, and who had the most favorable offensive zone stars on the team aside from Patrick Kane. Give those types of match ups to Edvinsson and he'll score you 50 points as w...

Yes, they deserved it. This season was a good building block, but this is not a playoff team yet. Interesting comments from Copp regarding the losing streak. He mentions that even at the end of the winning streak, they got away from playing a certain way and won the last few games by simply outscori...

The D needs SERIOUS work. Stevie really created a shit sandwich that he's going to have to eat here. Mo/Walman, and Eddy/Chiarot is tenable as a top 4. One can argue that if we can get a young up and coming RD to replace Chiarot that would be best. After that you've got to eat 2 yrs on Holl, and on...

I'd like us to improve goaltending, but with Husso and Lyon under contract I don't see Yzerman making any moves. If anything, Cossa might get a call up or two. Got to address the logjam on D. Buy out Holl. Keep Petry. Let Gostisbehere go. Keep Edvinsson. Try to move Walman and bring up Johansson. I'...

I was pretty close in my season prediction of 96 pts and narrowly missing the playoffs. That 7 game losing streak with no points really did damage to their playoff chances. They gave their all in the end, but the Caps deserved it. Who would have thought they'd be in it at the end with Husso only st...
