I really don't understand it, most years in recent memory even while they struggled horribly with 5-on-5 defense, their PK has been pretty consistently good.

Right now goaltending might have a lot to do with it but dunno, MAF has always been decent-to-good but never great.

He's overpaid for the role at this point but he's still a good 3rd line winger. As long as he's actually kept on the 3rd line and not holding Crosby back, it's cool.

The most frustrating part for me is Murray is giving up rebounds and it feels like the Caps never have anyone there to get second and third shots. Same poo poo, different year.

Caps fans do not want Malkin to be suspended, because Ovechkin would be on conference call with DOPS with Geno.

I think one of the stories of this series is the Caps being surprised to discover that thugging it up doesn't make the Penguins melt down anymore, they just keep playing their game and opportunistically dish it back when they can.

All rebounds aren't created equal, there's a big difference between Zatkoff Rebounds that fly 5 feet away for someone to attack and Murray Rebounds that drop 2 feet in front of him where he can grab them.
