Green is a hard sell. Often injured and inconsistent play. Someone will take him, though not sure what we can get without packaging a deal. A move for Miller would be nice, unfortunately our GM is an idiot.

That would be awesome but waaaaayyy too 'spensive for us. RMNB did a story yesterday on why that wouldn't be feasible. He's a UFA pulling down approx. $7M and Holtby and Neuvy together are only about $3.5M or something like that.
Ah, here it is..... No, Ryan Miller and the Capitals Wouldn’t Be a “Fit”
Oops, forgot to mention Ovie's FOUR POINT game!!!

I just flipped over to NBC Sports Network and there's another NHL Stadium Series game on. ####ing yawn.Either play games outside on a regular basis or only have one or two a year.
Why does it matter whether they play inside or out, it's still a hockey game.You make no sense. 6 games outdoors

Isnt he in his mid 30's. Jersey's team is really old, they better go for it now cause Jagr and Zubrius and couple others dont have many years left.
Its too bad Jagr didnot work out here, he's really a awesome player doing what he is, at what 42 years old.
I hated him in Pittsburgh, liked him when he came here, hated him after he left, but I really admire the guy now.

Heck they may even send him off to prison or revoke his citizenship, they cant be happy campers about the outcome.

Why would he? He alone didn't fail, his team did, despite the Russian coach throwing Ovie under the bus. I don't know why everyone's blaming him, when he wasn't the one wearning the 'C' and there was plenty of NHL/KHL firepower on that team that underperformed. Currently, he's on pace for 55+ goals this season with a lot of games left.

Yeah, no doubt. Where in the Hell was Malkin? What did he do?
I agree, but in 2010 he seemed to go off a cliff after the Olympics. He was so up for these games, I think it'll take some time for him to get over it.
Too much talent on that team to score so few goals. And of course the whole Bob vs. Varly angle.

He was busy hogging the puck and not scoring. Consequently, even though they advanced, his NHL linemate isn't doing much either.
I read a good article yesterday that put more blame on the coach for trying to force square pegs into round holes and totally screwing up the PP. Yes, the players weren't executing or adjusting well but it's not always entirely their fault.

Good trade by Capitals today getting Dustin Penner, 10 year vet. who can score he had 35 points this season proably puts him the top 5 of the Caps for scoring. Only giving up a 4th round pick.

Erat is gone.
They got Chris Brown, Rostislav Klesla (both from Phoenix) and a 2015 4th round pick for Erat and Mitchell.
Captain Marty St Louis traded yesterday to the Rangers for their Captain, Ryan Callahan, with the Lightning set to get at least a second round, and possible pick in the draft as well.
St Louis' apparent discontent with Lightning GM Steve Yzerman for not selecting St Louis for the Canadian national team for the Olympics, and rumors of his desire to be traded to the Rangers "for his family" was causing some discontent both in the locker room and on the ice.
Hopefully, this works out well for both players, with the Rangers getting a very potential HOF player in his very waning years, while TB gets a player 10 years younger, much better defensively, but up for free agency in July.

Pretty sure Holtby can only play home games. He got his ass handed to him last night.
Other than the goals to send Philly out to a commanding lead, the game was great. Very physical. You see Erskin two-piece Lecavalier while?
Wilson and Luke Schenn pretty much hate each other at this point. http://www.broadstreethockey.com/20...brawl-video-john-erskine-vinny-lecavalier-get
