  1. I'm not giving up hopes yet... Poolman seems like he'll get better and stronger soon. Kuzmenko and Mikeyhev will do fine... Bruce should consider bringing up Di Giuseppe to rotate with Joshua 'cause PDG got a lot of heart and hussle and Joshua hasn't convinced me yet!!
  2. Hope not!!! I've waited this long to see some decent offensive depth!! Sure we are in a bad slump but at least we are producing goals!! Each time we are at least given hopes of winning!! In past few seasons, we were already over and out after the first period countless times!! Bruce just needs to figure out a plan to shut down opponents when we have a two goal lead!!
  3. Why bench Garland anyway?? He wasn't thr problem.... Martin looked fine but just gave up a bad wrap around goal... We'll get some luck soon if we keep going at it!!
  4. I don't get it... Why can't Boeser get into a scoring position ever?? Looks like the only way to secure a win is to score in OT!!
  5. No need to panic yet... We'll beat the Jackets tomorrow as long as they don't jump to a two goal lead
  6. Can't believe Kuemper is a defending champ goalie!! Interesting to see Hog suddenly turn into a speedy power forward!! Hope he can keep it up!!
  7. Let's win this baby!!! The Caps are missing Backstrom and Wilson... so they aren't that scary like before.... Petey needs to stat doing more one-timer slap shots!!!! we don't have the luxury to pick & choose that perfect angle/timing on PP!! same thing for Miller on PP... he's been soooooo predicatble... whenever he's got the puck on the left side, he'll always find a way to pass it across.... like c'mon man!!!
  8. Dickinson couldn't do a damn thing for us all last season and of course for his new employer he suddenly shows up to earn his pay cheques!! I hope we'll call up Karlsson soon. He might have some chemistry with either Petey or Aman... He seems to be the type that's versatile enough to contribute on both ends of the ice!!
  9. Let's just stay positive still... If Myers, Dermott, Mikeyhev and Di Giuseppe all get back soon, maybe we got a chance to get on a hot streak??
  10. Well... Cup contenders will pay to get a little better than their rivals!!
  11. Problem is though... Who's gonna fill 3C?? Lazar? Karlsson? That will just weaken our bottom 6 and then back to square one!!
  12. Let's say if we end up having a disastrous road trip to start the season, maybe time to trade Bo for a prospective and picks... It's playoffs or bust this season and we all know how a slow start cost our last season!
  13. Well.. Mgmt decided to hand him a nice extension deal and barely got money left to re-sign Bo and Kuz!!
  14. He will now since Poolman is out!! Boeser and Petey gotta shoot more!!!
  15. I heard Poolman has left the game... What happened?? Burroughs seems to be a lil lost now!!
  16. Did you just say Rathbone and Klimovich are mid level prospects?? what an insult to JB.... Rathbone is gonna be our Hughes #2... and Klim is gonna do better than Podz...
  17. Then.. add more sweetners!! Bo + Rathbone + Klimovich for Jenner
  18. Can't wait to see Dermott back.. he's a very solid 2-way D-man and gets so little credit... once he and Myers return, it's gonna be a logjam at D... I don't know how we can fit in Stillman and Burroughs... not to mention Rathbone who's got so much skill but still hasn't nailed down his spot... but good problem to have for sure!!
  19. I recall 3 great chances to put the game away by Horvat, Miller, Hoglander... no pressure whatsoever... and they couldn't even bury ONE!!! We can argue all day long about how the ref's missed the call on Hughes being highsticked but there is just no excuse for letting the 3-goal lead evaporate like that... and... why are teams not allowed to challenge for a missed penalty call?? Ohhhhh... 'cause that's kinda subjective and we can't let the refs lose their authority???
