...maybe BOUCH can't turn to his right?

Have to say I'm plesantly surprised, an unexpected win!


Trying not to pick on Bouchard, but he served a hot pepperoni, extra-large pizza for the Caps first goal.. got the caps back in the game.. The guy is weak as a kitten on cycles, and puck retrievals.. loses one on one puck battles consistently.. gets turnstiled at least once or twice a game.. slow-twitch neurons.. He's over matched on the top D pairing.. defensive liability in general.. I was almost thinking Barrie should replace him to shore up the defensive game.. who's worse defensively?

Foegel proving why he was dropped to the 4th line, bad passes, bad decisions, no hands.

McDavid was absolutely flying.

Kane displaying his scoring touch, still out of shape.. 17 games to go (I figured it'll take 20 games to get in shape)

Kosko was OK.

Team in general still doesn't like to engage physically and finish checks.. which I find just freaking bizarre.

McDAVID! Oh YEAH Baby!! (Thank you Lord!)
