Seems to be the popular opinion over the past 2 seasons. Or, "man, he's still playing the same way since he entered the league."
Still flying up the wing and shooting from the outside of the circle?

Despite Ovi's skill, I always thought he should incorporate a little power forward into his game.

I have no idea where a trade with the Caps and Canucks would start. Maybe Forsberg, or something, but they look like they have a lot more issues then goal tending anyways.
Yes please.

All I know is that Gillis wants value and a center (preferably 2nd/3rd line). Don't actually see much that fits with Washington.

He could just be there for appearances. He really wants certain GMs to feel he's got options.

Forsberg is a winger, unless I'm mistaken (not sure if that's what you were getting at).

And i'm as excited about him as I am Kuznetsov, so please god no :(

You want to get rid of him? How much would he want for his new contract?

He has shown no signs of improving. I know his point total last season increased but that happened since he was gifted points being on the top line. He is so weak and can't hold the puck.

Johansson has under performed all season. His speed isn't even showing anymore, and he's so easily intimidated along the boards.

A lot of fans and blogs (derp) are suggesting he has a case of the brought up too soons. Somewhat agree, but he looked so much better before.

We've already got Schroeder then.

But I could see Gillis taking him on as a project. Any good in the face off circle?

I think he has tried to do that, but he just ends up taking wild runs at guys. I also don't think he's a guy who's good in tight spaces and who can fight somebody out of a corner. He's a player who needs space to wind himself up and to take his shots.

saza, is this accurate? This is the first Caps game I've watched this season.

He's been my favourite Cap beside Backstrom for the past few years, hope he can pick it up again.

So have we confirmed whether or not Pacioretty is Wolverine yet?

Pacioretty out 3-4 weeks after appendectomy. Plays 8 day later.

Mental mistake by Despres to put the Caps on the PP.

EDIT: And we have a hockey game again. 16 minutes left, only down by two.

I know the NBC sucks thing is a dead horse but..

Caps score on the PP and the FIRST thing you say is "how about that brooks orpik block last period?" really?
