Can't even imagine how all the CBJ players will have to continue to deal with the emotions all season, esp. with every new team they face who haven't dealt with it "directly" yet

Mangiapane was one of the pallbearers along with Monahan and Kevin Hayes et al so I imagine this will be very raw for him

That being said, hope gm number 4 for Vrana will help Carbs decide whether he's staying or going as we get closer to RS

Torts was the man helping the family out!

That lineup tells me that Lapierre and Raddysh have secure spots on the team. The forwards tonight minus Ovi, Strome, CMM, and Mangi are all competing for that one last spot..

 

[Misery74]

Goals tonight from Miro and Cristall would be interesting.

 

[um]

Goals tonight from Miro and Cristall would be interesting.

it should make Milano nervous

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Love to see AC pot a few tonight to see if he can force their hand….

 

[Ridley Simon]

I don’t think Milano is in any trouble. But that’s just me

Not just you. They tweeted some Milano hype earlier today.

This….not just you…

Yeah, there's some guys on the bubble, but he's not one of them. Nor should he be.

Would the team running social media have any indications/connections to the dudes making roster decisions? Feel like we've had bobble head nights or stuff of dudes planned who either got traded or cut before.

I think it’s realistic that Milano could be waived. Not saying it will, but I can see a scenario where he is odd man out.

I think if he gets waived, he clears.

I could see Milano getting pushed to 13F, but he's definitely on the roster. If someone is going to sit, you would much rather it be a veteran like Milano versus a young guy like Miro or Cristall. If they make the team, they're playing almost every game.

After the first 1 or 2 times that kind of thing bites them in the ass I'd bet they at least run it up the flagpole in some way to see if they're risking a gaffe. I doubt some social media writer is calling the coach, but some kind of channel could exist at a higher level.

But anything can happen.

 

[um]

Don’t think Milano will be sent down or anything, especially based on preseason.

But I think his job is as secure as any 30 point one-dimensional winger who doesn’t play on the special teams. Any long term struggles and he may be on the move.

Sonny is not going anywhere. His hair has led to more scoring than all the rookies combined.

 

[John Price]

wtf

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Preparty extended…

 

[John Price]

someone in line here (I'm outside the stadium) started saying it but I didn't believe it untill I hopped on Twitter

well more time to sit by the rink inside

 

[Empty Goal Net]

Not just you. They tweeted some Milano hype earlier today.

Guessing Sonny Boy was chosen since he's an ex-Jacket. Jason Chimera isn't dressing tonight.

and fwiw, if the team has excess forwards, I'd rather see a trade than too many quasi-vets limiting the kids' ice time in Hershey.

 

[ViD]

How is Ovechkin looking ?

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

How is Ovechkin looking ?

Like a 39 year old man. He’s reading the play well and doing his best to get in positions to make an impact (hits, passes), but the speed is gone.

He might honestly be one of the slowest players in the NHL if not the slowest.
