Fuck.
Just want to hop in here and say that it’s just the first game of the season, it’s fine.
woof
Special teams shit the bed.
PP was soft and PK was straight garbage.
Either way, 18 shots in goal ain’t gonna do it.
What an embarrassing display. Top-8 draft pick here we come!
Why come the capitals don win?
#FUCK EVERYTHING, ILL SEE YOU NEXT GAME
It didn’t look good, pop. Utter shitshow
Big fat donut.
81-1!!!!
Bring back Miro and Haman Aktell. Get LuJo, Malenstyn and Mantha off the roster. Move McMichael to Center. Move Kuznetsov down. Put Strome back on the top line between Ovechkin and Wilson.
That could’ve gone better
We are going to be fucking mid
I’ve waited this long for Caps hockey, I can wait a few more days 🙂
rough game. on to the next.
that was definitely a capitals hockey game and i know that for a fact.
mikey and osh with some good chances. this game goes much differently if those were scored
Big talk about Mantha and Kuzy being refocused turned into just that
2018 and 2019 were so fucking validating as a DC sports fan that we could have nice things sometimes, but goddamn I swear we’ve just been immediately choke-slammed back to reality after decades of disappointment
I expected nothing and somehow that was too much
First game or not, that was tough to watch
Good thing a lot people weren’t able to watch this on TV including me
This team is just so tough to be fan of lately. Revolving door of coaches/bad hires. Refusal to let young players play. And signing bad contracts and old players. This team is slowwwww and it showed tonight. Mantha/Kuzy/Backy/Oshie contracts are killing this team.

Did anyone else see that ESPN postgame discussion on what they ate for lunch and salads?? What an absolute joke
What a SHITTY opening night. Zero energy from our boys. Kindve disgraceful compared to our preseason energy. Wish we WOULDNT have bought tickets for tonight’s game.!
That one possession where we literally skated circles around Pittsburgh in their own zone for 2+ minutes without registering anything close to a shot is going to be something I think about all season. It may be an omen for the season. We’ve improved in some aspects but we still can’t figure out how to capitalize on chances. Nobody is scary from an offensive perspective on the Caps.
Did anyone feel we were good the first 8mins, then began to fall back into our old habits the rest of the game??
