GDT: The Powerhouse @ Capitals - 12:30pm EST

[Amazing Kreiderman]

All I said was that I don’t think he has a lot of upside. That’s it. I said he was not a good skater, but I didn’t say he couldn’t improve. Just that I doubt he’ll improve that much in that aspect.

It's cute that you think I was referring to you

 

[Baby Punisher]

Hank got fooled on that one.

I'm surprised by how that happened. He saw it all the way. It must have changed speeds on him.

 

[RangerLifer]

Maybe this is just as well so that the Caps can catch the hated Islanders.

 

[trilobyte]

Vesey pass leads to goal.
I'm in trouble for saying this, I know...flagellate me now, dammit

 

[Machinehead]

I would rather watch the Islanders win the Cup than watch the Caps win a game.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

****ing classic Caps period

They're out Rangers'ing the Rangers.

Sorry. If I will say, he definitely has improved his skating. I’m impressed.

 

[Kovalev27]

I think DeAngelo's upside as a point getter will be limited by his shot. Total muffin shot. He can walk the line and find a lane but his shot isn't strong enough to create havoc and rebounds in front like most other top OFD.

His like last 3 of 4 pts came from doing exactly that lol. Imo he’ll be a 50 pt player at least starting next year.

 

[Machinehead]

They're out Rangers'ing the Rangers.

Nah, if anything, we would out Caps the Caps.

They won a Cup doing it.

 

[Black Aces]

This is good.

Rangers are playing a good game, and will lose in regulation to stay on track for the draft

It really is ideal.

 

[CasusBelli]

Yeah, but some people think players should have it all figured out at age 20

Physical development is always possible with good coaching and a good attitude.

 

[ThirdEye]

ADA is a better MDZ

ADA is a better MDZ

McDavid is better than Stepan

edit - never mind i read it wrong.

 

[Black Aces]

Any ideas as to why Buch looks better? He seems so much more invested and involved.

 

[Machinehead]

The Islanders aren't relevant unless you're like a thousand years old.

Which team has a bigger bandwagon?

Bad feeling that if the Fishsticks won, three quarters of Long Island would claim fandom.

 

[effen]

This weird passive aggressive shit now that Andersson's had a 4 whole periods of being an NHL level skater is not a good look.

What are some of you guys doing lol

 

[Kovalev27]

No that’s a backdoor goal forward needed to come back and help DeAngelo has to take the guy going to the net down the middle.

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

Any ideas as to why Buch looks better? He seems so much more invested and involved.

He’s a young player potentially starting to realize his potential?

 

[duhmetreE]

[eco's bones]

Vesey seems to be playing fairly well with Zibanejad and Kreider. Buchnevich seems to be the guy leading Chytil and Andersson. He had a good period and I liked that shot he gave to Wilson which came right after Andersson got a good hit on him too.

It was a pretty good period until the last minute and a half. We can't back off these f***ers. You got to go after them and give it right back or they'll try to run you out of their rink.

When the Capitals win, three quarters of Satan's darkest disciples claim fandom. The other quarter were already huge fans.

Disagree. he gets the puck to the net, that's how he's is getting so many points. Only thing he needs to improve on with his shot is keeping it low, he tends to shoot high way too often from the point.

I think Quinn has gotten through to him and he's finally taking responsibility for his play
