GDT: GM: 420 Habs @ Caps - 7:08pm EST

Chych to the locker room.

The Caps have very few shots again. I’m starting to think there is an actual issue with the team now.

They have no top line talent... or very little. Structurally they're fairly sound, but no real offensive threats on the top line. d-men have been masking a lot of the offensive problems thus far.
 
zero offensive zone time, can't even get the puck into the o zone much less keep it there for more than a second.
 
So many lazy plays with the puck. Everyone’s just waiting to get their cookies.

Carbs needs to get the forwards to up the pressure on the forecheck first, then the rest will follow. Guys like Wilson can and should turn up the heat on the Habs D.
 
I just want it noted that the Caps have gotten even worse since sending Lappy down. I'm not saying he is the solution, because I don't think he is, but obviously, he wasn't the one thing holding this team back.
 
If you watched this game not knowing where these two teams are in the standings, you wouldn’t believe that the trailing team is 2nd while the other is 21st.
