I agree. It’s probably time to get rid of GMGM. While he has not been a bad GM necessarily, he is not a great one. Seems like it’s time for a new architect. The last rebuild was able to produce a team who could win in the regular season but not go far enough in post-season. Seeming like team, as a whole, is past its peak

Ovi has been just plain awful.

Backstrom looks like a lost rookie passing to no one in particular.

Carlson has been dreadful.

Alzner calls himself out as being ineffective.

Those are the reasons why the Caps are 0-3-1.

They played in KHL which means a bigger pitch and mediocre defence.

>> We have a lot of extremely talented players…

O, really? We have few talented players. Not a lot. And not extremely talented. Who is by the way extremely talented? Name one for a start. Even Ovi never was extremely talented. That’s why he is done. Big body, few moves in repertoire and high quality shot – that is it. Maybe Sasha was extremely talented but it doesn’t matter anymore. Maybe Nicky still is. But let’s face it: most of our players are mediocre and that is the reason our team is (and never was) serious cup contender.

Look where we are in the standings,hon. We are chewing dust there. Catching up is hard to do.

Riebero is a star player but our top offensive line stopped being those stars for whatever reason.

This. Also hasn’t Ribeiro only played with Ovi during the PP? He’s been centered by “light rain” honey (backstrom, once upon a time he was called thunder honey, a long time ago in a rink far far away) and then beagle last night. Asides from that opening center to Green, Ovi was a no show until the end. Beags and Crabb were generating chances by themselves, the captain was busy doing circles god knows where all night. Side tracked, Ribs has been one of the best caps so far this season and his team leading 4 points completely justifies that. He may be a “B” level star, but he’s at least playing like it. Green and Carlson improved their gpa’s slightly tonight (green more so than carlson), but Nicky and Ovi are still riding the Bart Simpson train to repeating the 4th grade for eternity
