Is This going to be a Long (Shortened) Season? | Habs @ Caps GNT

[ritari330]

Shit's a mess. Everyone looks shitty. Everyone looks like they haven't played since last year. "1st line winger" (Mojo shouldn't be anywhere near the 1st line) got benched. Perreault asked about being traded. Shit is just a mess.

tonight's the night for the Caps....

 

[ritari330]

Neuvy looks better so far than Holtby did in the first 2 games. Overall the team looks better. MP85 taking a trip 30 seconds into the game wont help his playing time situation...

Caps headed to the PP with 3:45 to go in the first. Game flying by

 

[ritari330]

0-0 after 1. Decent first from what I saw (about 11-12 minutes)

 

[apachef4]

5-on-3 for the Habs early in the 2nd...

 

[ritari330]

Horrible penalty by OV and then a DOG from Brouwer and a minute and a half of 5 on 3 for mtl

 

[apachef4]

Killed off 1:31 of 5-on-3, unfortunately it was for 1:35. 1-0 Habs.

 

[ritari330]

Fuck. 1-0 mtl

 

[ritari330]

Don't buy that call at all. Caps back to the PK

 

[apachef4]

Caps should have a revolving door installed in the penalty box. Hendricks with the Goalie Interference, Markov makes them pay. 2-0 Habs.

 

[ritari330]

Bad clear you say joe? That's like the 5th one from the past 3 penalties. 2-0 habs

 

[apachef4]

I swear to Christ that OV is aiming at defensemen's legs.

 

[ritari330]

Yep. Going to be a LONG season

 

[apachef4]

Yep. Going to be a LONG season

It sure is looking like it.

 

[ritari330]

This is just horrid. LOOOOOOONG season

 

[ritari330]

Think McPhee ends up loosing his job by years end if this is the route the season goes?

Ted is notoriously loyal to GM's. Hell, if Ernie Grunfeld still has a job, I'd think McPhee would be safe for a while. They have the built-in excuse of new coach/new system with no offseason as well.

A bottom 5 finish would do it though I think.

Installing a new system with no training camp=disaster

The Caps should try the triangle offense.
