No sustained commitment on defense by Vegas. Caps skaters have way too much space to operate. Caps D is putting on a clinic.

Agreed. And Colin Miller had the kind of game that showcased why Boston left him unprotected. Just a huge liability, at least for one game.
Steve (and everyone), did you see where Bruin great Johnny 'Pie' McKenzie passed away?
Big Bad Bruin Johnny McKenzie won his biggest fight off the ice
For those too young, he was a Brad Marchand type, minus the stupid antics. A guy called too small by some scouts, he gave it all he got, and was a fan favorite in Boston. Every Cup winner has to have their share of character players, and McKenzie was all that and more in the early 70's. He could score goals and mix it up in the corners with the best of them.
May he R.I.P.
Wow, I just heard Barry Trotz resigned as coach of the Crapitals. You just gotta figure the bean counters didn’t want to pay him what he’s now worth.
Or the scuttlebutt that he felt disrespected by the team not offering him an extension this season just might have had some credibility.
He’ll be unemployed only as long as he wants to be, I’m betting.
Montreal bound? After the season they had and Trotz now available I could easily see Claude shown the door.
Maybe, Steve, but that’s a reportedly $5m guy to kick out the door. My guess is the Islanders, or he takes a year off. On social media, Islanders fans are already foaming at the mouth at the prospect of getting Trotz for a coach.
It will all make for a very interesting draft this weekend.
You nailed it Jeff. Trotz to the Islanders.
Now who do the Caps turn to?
