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

[Machinehead]

So you're super old then?

 

[DutchNYR]

Really like the Chytil - Andersson - Buchnevich line today, especially the last two.

Other than that, can periods last 18 minutes instead of 20?

 

[effen]

Buch probably just got a good nights sleep tbh. I wouldn't make any sweeping generalizations just yet.

 

[Machinehead]

If I was starving and somebody gave me a watermelon, I would starve to death to throw that watermelon at John Carlson instead.

He's looked good for quite a while now

 

[RangerLifer]

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

OUCH!! NOOOOOOOOO PLEASE GOD NO!

 

[duhmetreE]

So you're super old then?

I would have been traded this TDL

 

[NCRanger]

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

Well, they do play in DC. DC itself is Satan’s home on Earth. Damn swamp.

That means somebody wants you. Bright side, silver lining etc.

Still would rather look at this face than Carlson's.

Ehhh.. he's been better. Still doesn't have better than average level of compete. Perplexing player.

 

[RangerLifer]

What are you, an agist?

 

[Machinehead]

What are you, an agist?

Not at all, but to me, if you hate the Islanders more than the Capitals, you have to remember the 80's.

Otherwise, you have no reason to.

Otherwise, you have no reason to.

Or you actually grew up in the tristate area so you’ve encountered far more Islanders fans irl than Caps fans.

 

[BleedBlueNYR]

Very weird not being able to count on the 36 today. Does anyone know if he’s in Dallas yet?

 

[ThirdEye]

Ehhh.. he's been better. Still doesn't have better than average level of compete. Perplexing player.

I mean, what are your expectations for him? If you're expecting him to become a top line forward then yes, you can say he's been somewhat disappointing. As a 2nd/3rd line supplementary player though, which is realistically his what his upside is, there hasn't been a ton to fault lately. Let's also remember that he's still pretty young (23) and players taken in later rounds like him usually need a good amount of seasoning before they break out

Grew up right in the middle of the tri-state area. Never had any issue with Islanders fans.

Maybe they're just quiet because they suck, but either way...

You must be a late 90's baby?

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

There we go Buch!

 

[duhmetreE]

I haven't seen this Buch.... ever

 

[Trxjw]

Andersson still needs to improve his first few steps, but the kid certainly works his ass off along the boards.

 

[FireGerardGallant]

Are the lines the same from yesterday?

 

[Machinehead]

You must be a late 90's baby?

Early 90's, but I was 2 years old the last time the Islanders won a playoff series before 2016, so they were never relevant to me.

And on here, they've always been nice to me.

HFCaps on the other hand...

 

[Rempe73]

Wow Buch, that speed
