[Empty Goal Net]

Jake the snake baby

and the feed from CMM playing center

 

[Liam Smith]

Cristall is gonna be a player eventually

 

[RedRocking]

Cristall is gonna be a player eventually

Just a shame he’ll end up going back to the WHL. Nothing more for him to learn there.

 

[Lou Sassole]

nice steal by Cristall

He's done that a few times this preseason, his hockey sense is impressive. Really like his game.

 

[HeyMattyB]

I want to see what CMM and Vrana can do playing with a RW that isn’t Frank.

 

[NoVaCapsFan]

Keep Vrana.
CMM center line 3.
Cristall 9 game taste of the NHL.
Lapierre to Hershey to start.
Frank to Hershey to stay.
Bear to waivers.

 

[notDkristich]

defense is optional tonight

 

[RedRocking]

Almost vintage Ovi

 

[Langway]

D depth pretty much sucks.

 

[Coldplay619]

So many breakaways.

 

[SecretaryofDefense5]

So…the Caps are allowing a ton of breakaways BUT devils advocate…I’d like to see Chucky stop something.

 

[RedRocking]

Cristall making his case…

 

[Coldplay619]

Golazo. Nice from Cristall.

 

[notDkristich]

i like Cristall

 

[SecretaryofDefense5]

I’ll say one thing, Cristall would easily be one of the Caps most creative players if he made the team. They lack players like him right now. Lots of north/south players.

[notDkristich]

Carbs put on a couple of extra lbs?

 

[stephenball]

I think it’s more likely each game that Cristall gets a 9 game look, probably in Milano’s place just to start out. He looks good.

I said this in an earlier thread: the Caps lost Kuznetsov, Backstrom, and Oshie, three of our most creative players and didn't replace that skill. Obviously, Cristall can't single-handedly replace any of them at 19 let alone all of them, but his skill set would be very useful on the Caps.

 

[Misery74]

Keep Vrana.
CMM center line 3.
Cristall 9 game taste of the NHL.
Lapierre to Hershey to start.
Frank to Hershey to stay.
Bear to waivers.

Cristall should get 9, but not at the expense of Jimi.

Not sure why Vrana gets a spot over Lapierre either.

 

[SecretaryofDefense5]

Keep Vrana.

Cristall 9 game taste of the NHL.
Lapierre to Hershey to start.
Frank to Hershey to stay.
Bear to waivers.

Not a fan of Alexeyev.

 

[notDkristich]

[CapitalsCupReality]

82 Columbus is good…
