Description

Lot of people on this site/Twitter are hating on Kuzy bc his point production is slightly down but they are the same people calling him out for his terrible defensive play last year.

last year
46.40CF%....45.71FF%.....46.77xGF%

this year
55.26CF%....56.40 FF%.......58.69xGF%

New system/ New coach and his metrics have massively improved from last year. Capitals defense is god awful. you could argue he's been one of the better players on this team.

i would bench GH and ND .... both have taken way too many penalties. i would also bench Chara to let players like Sieg to get ome ice time....Chara also takes a ton of penalties

this team has all the arrogance of a championship team with none of the skill/will. they are too comfortable and they need to make some changes ....if that doesnt work they need to make some trades and strongly reconsider signing Ovechkin long term for massive amounts of money....i love him but theres a reason why 90% of people who watch hockey think Crosby is better. Ovechkin takes too many shifts off and DGAF most nights

Quoting: pharrow

i don't think either team is missing the playoffs for the record. Even a slow caps team is better than the rangers, buf and NJ. and NYI really aren't a better team.

Here's hoping. Lee was just on another level this summer. Really led them. Varlamov wasn't too bad, either.

Quoting: PENSFAN18

Look bud. You've played Buffalo 5 times and have won 4 times. You guys look awful vs the Pens. We will see after tonight. If your gonna say our defense is terrible than yours is absolutely awful. Your defense is worse than outs by far. I'd take Jarry everyday of the week over Vitak Vanecek and Ilya Samonov. Malkin has more points than Kuznetsov, if you wanna keep going with that. The Pens have skated circles around this team. I've watched a lot of Caps games and they don't impress me at all. Sorry not sorry bud. Also your saying Richard Panik is one of your best 2 ways forwards???? 2-4-6 and a -5 isn't a good stat line for a two way player. It's like saying Carl Hagelin is your best bottom 6 scoring threat.

lol oh boy where do we start... LOOK BUD

Capitals beat the Penguins 5-2..... so to start thats pretty funny. Capitals also played the Sabre 2x without Ovechkin Orlov Kuzy and Samsonov

Jarry vs V V

13gp....13gs....6w.....6L....1OT....39GA....370SA...331SV... .895 s%......3.17 gga
16gp.....16gs..8w......4L....3OT.....45GA...493SA....448sv .......909s%.......2.86gga

V V is the better goalie lol but lets look at Malkin vs Kuzy

Kuzy

11gp.....2g...6a..8p...56.27CF%....56.50FF%....59.57xGF%

Malkin

18gp....4g...7a...11p...MINUS 8 lol......52.07CF%....53.29FF%...44.74xGF%

"cApItAlS sUcK"

24 points 2nd in the division......

Penguins

21 points 5th.... Yes 5th in the division .... not even in the playoffs...

oh yeah before i forget.....

Panik

57.18Cf%....55.17FF%.....56.65xGF%
