Mitts isn't healthy so there's no body to replace Cozens

So 18 games?

Sign Jankowski and bring him up.

PP was putrid.  Coach wants one good shot versus 3 or 4 mediocre.  Has he looked at the PP units?  I want ANY shot on goal at this point.   

[Claude Balls]

This is comical. Hysterically pathetic. 

[darksabre]

There is just no where near enough talent on this roster. Which is, of course, not news lol 

[TheAud]

Is Washington playing 6 skaters on 5?

Only been watching a few minutes... but we've been outworked, out-hustled, and out-supported by teammates in every loose puck. That is a really bad combination of achievements.

Playing like they want the losing score to be close.  No aggression in their own end.  Sag back and let the Caps pass it around.

A two minute powerplay without an attempted shot on net...Wowzers

But it is 5th in the league, so maybe they will put it together later in game

If you account for the talent gap, the Sabres are playing a pretty good game so far.

[Randall Flagg]

If John Hayden is on your 23 man roster, you're either very top-heavy or a very bad team. Have to think there are guys on waivers that play better hockey

Maybe they will when we're down 4-0 with 5 minutes left in the third. I'm a little ornery after the Bills' game yesterday so I apologize for the snarkiness

You like that PP?

Everyone has a price 

[bob_sauve28]

Hey, we got the puck to their goalie! Progress

No need for an apology. Anyone who watched the Bills yesterday should feel exactly the same.

Wolanin is playing with very little confidence. He's seeing ghosts.

[Carmel Corn]

Shoot it Dylan!

[bob_sauve28]

Eakin, nice shoot in, omg

I think this is about 50% of Cozens problem. In fact I'm convinced JJ and Quinn would already be better wingers for Cozens.

Why not send Cozens down to play with them for a week or two, and then recall of them after cutting Caggilua, Hayden and Eakin

They could move Bjork or Skinner to His Wing now. 

Once Mitts and Olofsson are back either put Skinner back on His Wing or have Cozens play a few games on Mitts Wing. 

If it doesn’t work then  consider Rochester. 

Leave Quinn and JJP where they are.

At least Tage and Tokarski came to play.  

[Nitro60]

Very lucky to be down by one.

[inkman]

Eakin is so terrible. A simple zone entry and he blast it into Girgs 3 feet in front of him

And really, if they closed the gaps on the ice they'd be even better.  They're giving the Caps too much respect.

I think Kyle had a flashback.
