wow. another anemic game. any of these guys going to wake up and score?

that sucked

Players I liked in the game:
Benoit
Grigorenko
Luke Adam
Lieuwen
Risto
Larsson

Players I wasn't impressed by:
Karabachek (thought he got pushed around too much)
Reinhart (thought he got pushed around too, but he still seemed pretty good defensively)
Armia (I liked the physicality but didn't see much offense)
Ellis (enough said)

I know it's the preseason and players are still getting their feet under them, but I thought I'd just put my thoughts out there. Any thoughts?

Wow, what great prospects. Can't score a goal.

Reinhart definitely need s some AHL seasoning. making the jump from playing against boys vs. legit NHL veterans is just too much of a gap for him and many others to jump.
It amazes me Grigo was trying to jump ship to a european league yet he cant score in a pre season game. He also needs seasoning.
Armia is another one......wow me and you'll get a spot in the NHL. Otherwise, whats the point?
.....a lot of these guys think they're great.....but even in pre season games, they don't impress. So, to me, that says more AHL time...

In all fairness, the Caps had a few of their regulars including Ovechkin, compared to our Weber and MFE.

How many goals did Ovechkin score this game?

Also I don't know how many he took because he was 2nd last for TOI, but he did have 88% FO wins

They had Ovie, Backstrom, Ward, Chimera, Alzner, Holtby, and Niskanen I think.

Big difference from our regulars. If we had Myers, or Ennis, or Moulson could've been a different game.

Was at the game tonight. All around pretty meh preformance, but I thought Risto had a solid game.

Torrey Mitchell didn't look bad, or was it my imagination being just a couple of good shifts?

I only got to catch the last eight minutes due to me having to keep the girlfriend happy. I liked leiuwen from what I saw. Can't make any other observations other than that. There was good puck movement for the last few minutes, but of course no shots on net.

I think you are the derp, whatever that means. He was at the game and you half-assed watched it.

It's pretty easy to see... Probably wouldn't have asked him if he was going to Richmond at the end of it...

1.) errant yelling
2.) misspelling of computer
3.) using the word "derp"
4.) asking if he was going to richmond (insinuating he knows him on a personal level possibly)
5.) watching on and off with sound muted
