Thread: At the deadline if depth scoring is an issue
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ClockReads2113</b></div><div>I think Caps MIGHT not score as much goals but they'll be stopping a lot more goals against so it will be okay. Doubt we'll be starving for goals that we'll need to make a trade.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Rayquaza649</b></div><div>I like this trade even though i doubt it would happen, unless we are really crunched on depth scoring</div></div>

Agree to both - I posted a similar response in one of the other Caps ACGMs. I think we stand pat at the deadline unless there's a really good addition to be had. I really like the attention that the front office put towards shot suppression and PK in the bottom six.

I think if we dip a little in scoring, we should be able to hold a top 3 place in the standings in the Metro with a better defensive team. We were 5th in goal scoring last year, but only had a goal differential of +26. If we're like 8th in goal scoring and 8th (from 13th last year) in goals against, we're better off than 5th and 13th. Not to mention our biggest weakness as a team was the PK, which was 24th at 78.93%. The bottom six should be a pretty formidable group of PKers, especially when you add in Oshie and Wilson to the mix.
