You know it's a good season if it's 10:30 ET and a guy with 2 posts is posting the GDT...

Someone's gotta do it.

Im already on board with sticking Ribeiro with Ovechkin. Can that happen now? Please.

Schultz out. Kundratek in. Crabb to make #Caps debut

brs03 · 01-22-2013, 09:43 AM

Sounds like Crabb is 4RW, Kundratek is 6D per twitterz.

RandyHolt · 01-22-2013, 09:46 AM

Schultz out good lord I can't believe it. Hearing we recalled a RH shot told me George or Adam were blaming our handedness on the failures of our D, and I figured they would ignore addressing who seemed to be struggling.

George may now prefer proper D handedness as much as I do.

If Kundratek hits with regularity, I bet he could easily steal a job here. Or at least until Orlov is back.

Caps d pairs will have Alzner-Carlson, Poti-Green, Hamrlik-Kundratek

I would like to see healthy Poti for some extended period

BrooklynCapsFan · 01-22-2013, 09:50 AM

An outsider takes control of the team and Schultz gets benched inside of ten minutes. Shocking.

strungout · 01-22-2013, 09:51 AM

Freaking Schultz.

I don't think Oates knows Schultz has Ted's naked pictures yet. Not to worry, by game time Ted will have a talk and Schultz will be in the line up.

IkeaMonkey* · 01-22-2013, 09:52 AM

Oh baby.

We got our first taste of Wolski on Saturday. Now we get a taste of some Crabb? Everything's gonna be comin up Eric Fehr on Thursday!

IkeaMonkey* · 01-22-2013, 09:54 AM

BCF must be excited. Holtby can give up a dozen goals and still get the start the next game.

RandyHolt · 01-22-2013, 09:56 AM

Oates and all our coaches must feel compelled, or are forced, to play plus fiddy.

I am keeping Green on a short leash in a short season. If he holds the puck on top of the umbrella with droopy syndrome again, I want someone else tried there and fast. Someone that acts fast, and makes fast passes. I can slowly throw the puck back to Nick every time too. Anyone can.

Who else can run the umbrella? Is it normal to have a play maker as the top spear of the umbrella? Poti can get PP time. Carlson. Ribs and MP should be tried on PP1 sooner than later, if it flounders along again this year.

Jo can be replaced by MP as well.

I like those pairings alot. Hope there's some good chemistry between the two Czechs. We already know how the other two pairs work together.

Have to wonder if JFS and Oisk will both be gone by the TDL. Dale didn't show much love to these two either.

Apparently you think I'm a Holtby fan for some reason. Not sure why but ok.

More telling is that Oates looked at Holtby's garbage performance and still believes he gives us a better chance to win than Neuvirth.

No, but I know you are of the opinion that Bjork is a puppy killer.

And your coachspeak saddens me. We don't need another RandyHolt.

tycoonheart · 01-22-2013, 10:05 AM

You don't bench the goalie after the first game of the season. You let him rebound. The guy was fantastic for us last season, he deserves the chance to redeem himself for that crappy performance.

Alain Vigneault disagrees.

G3 LesPaul · 01-22-2013, 10:06 AM

Only took one game for Oates to watch Sarge and say "okay, I'm done"

Mystlyfe · 01-22-2013, 10:09 AM

IkeaMonkey* · 01-22-2013, 10:11 AM

Oh are Jets games our img fests?

tycoonheart · 01-22-2013, 10:12 AM

Mystlyfe · 01-22-2013, 10:13 AM

If we're going to go NYJ pics, at least go with this one.

Koized · 01-22-2013, 10:39 AM

No Schultz or Wideman, so nice to see.

Wasn't really impresssed with Kondratek last year during his call up, but rather give him a chance then 55.

We need Orlov back ASAP.

BCFs coachspeak is most welcome.

But life is too short to be sad so please ignore me. It's not that difficult.

Damn I had just done my annual purge of the ignore list too.
