GDT: Caps at Penguins-1.22.12-12:30pm-NBC

[IafrateOvie34]

I can't imagine GMGM and Ted loving their team being talked about like they are on national television. Game started out good until the first goal. I am actually playing this game not on mute and about what I expected from the NBC crew.

[Blades of steel]

Ward is useless

[amjay13]

3 shots on goal...is that good?

[Chimaera]

awful awful awful.

Fail for Nail is in full effect.

[Liberati0n]

According to Emrick, 4 shots in the period, not 3. The doom and gloom around here, pathetic.

[stanleycaps98]

Brilliant period of hockey. Hopefully someone starts talking about sack grabbing.

[Capitlols]

I wish Ovechkin was still good.

[HSHS]

I think all those 4 shots were near blue line with halpy's just above circles.

[johnnyk08]

they were all quality chances

[DanTHEMan71]

Just a bunch of grinders with no hands. I'm beginning to include Ovi in that category too.

[tycoonheart]

Brutal.

The players look confused. No one knows what to do or where to be when they're transitioning from D to O.

This is why it's hard to build team around wingers. Youre irrelevant when you don't have the puck.... Or when Matt Hendricks is taking face offs!

[IafrateOvie34]

We used to be a fast team too. With Ward on the ice it has really dropped in team speed. I'm afraid the best we can hope for is a tied game.

Our FO will make excuses rather than take the criticism as a wake up call....

Should have been 0 SOG.

Those bad shots aren't worth taking.

[G3 LesPaul]

3 shots. Where are all the people that wanted Hunter so badly? Is this what you wanted?

[Blades of steel]

Were the lower cases

did the caps really just put up 2 shots in one full period of ice hockey? 1 shot for every 10 minutes of time spent on the ice? as many shots as the other team has goals???

hunter should be fired immediately, tbh. hes completely ****ing clueless. that doesnt excuse the players, but this is an embarrassment. you know who the caps remind me of? last years oilers. #30 in the league. least talented team weve seen in a few years. the team that put up 12 shots in an entire game last year (which the caps are currently on pace to HALF!).

this is a new low in caps hockey. its time for leonsis to put the ****ing hammer down and stop blogging his gargled nonsense.

[Liberati0n]

"These aren't the Capitals, these are the lowercases, Liam" -- Mike Milbury. Pretty good, honestly. And obviously correct.

4 shots? ZOMGZZZZ. you can tell i switched off and expected no more. but 4 shots, what a BEAST. now on pace to TIE that great oilers team with 12 shots, yeah!!

[LetsGoBears]

The overall passive system is an awful fit. Down people or not it is just a waste and talent and skill.

Peire's slobbering over Pens back check is laughable. I mean has he paid attention to the ten or so Cap games? It is self afflicted lack of shots.
