    We had all the momentum in the 3rd then Carlson literally lost us the game with his lazy skating.

    Most of the team looked pretty good minus Johnny Norris

  2. CurtHolls5

    Typically John Carlson lazy-I’m-too-good-to-try-on-defense…. Back right where he left off on our early exit last year

  3. ruta2019

    Carlson a -4 on the night, surely a lock for the Norris this year

  4. 1DustTheWind

    Anyone want a carlson jersey for cheap

  5. FunImprovement166

    I wish we had the John Carlson that all these people making lists of the best players think we do

  6. Knowledge_based

    Carlson was brutal tonight smh

  7. Goose_Bat

    Not trying to overreact but we just looked sloppy overall. Our offensive zone time was good but we got torched on their rush.

  8. thatdude6566

    If GMBM can get value out of Carly I won’t be upset at all

  9. The good:

    Hockey is back

    The fight through most the second and third

    The bad:

    Carlson, and the defense as a whole. Some good moments but just mostly bad.

    The Power Play, need I say more.

    No Ovi goal..

    Glad to be back though, see you guys tomorrow for hopefully something much better.

  10. FunImprovement166

    I mean in the first game I’m not going to take it as a predictor of anything.

    But effort, as always, is the killer. It was a will difference not a skill difference

    Blaine Forsythe is the Epstein of the capitals organization, what dirt does he have?

  12. mark_dink

    CARLSON IS NOW -4. HE IS SO BAD AT HOCKEY BRUH. SEND NORRIS TO THE MOON

  13. KiriyamaMehLama

    Well that sucked but 3 things

    1. Hockey is back

    2. Fuck the ovi Russianphobes

    3. The official position of the US DoD is that UFO’s are real.

  14. BigTuna99999

    Defense poor all around , main culprit Carlson, 3rd and 4th lines looked better then the 1st. Onto the next

  15. FunImprovement166

    Some fans want to move on from Oshie and I totally get their argument, but you can’t deny he plays as hard as he can every second he gets on the ice. Hurt, game out of reach, whatever. He still battles.

  16. TheOnionVolcano

    Already losing sleep over the first powerplay unit but we looked pretty locked in after Mantha scored.

    Pastrnak is also just unfair. Dude is amazing.

  17. WastemanLoso

    Defense led by John Carlson is the problem.

  18. Jay-Babo

    Rough start. Need a bounce back tomorrow. Defense and PP need to be better

  19. HarambeStood69

    Strome with the silky mitts was a positive. I’m not mad about Carlson just disappointed

  20. DvanIragoKing

    PP1 looked abysmal. Thanks Forsythe for the constant backwards pass from everyone’s favorite #74. Still haven’t learned a good clean entry. Awesome!

    I’ve been on the trade Carlson train for 2 years. If there is any value left I’d be good with getting Erat back, hell even a broken Glencross.

    Welcome to DC Darcy! You gotta do it all by yourself here. 😂😂

  21. Hi, I’d like to order 1 Tom Wilson please.

  22. brady_t12

    I love when fans of other teams talk about Carlson as a great #1 defenseman. They have no idea.

    Excited for Strome, very optimistic for Mantha. I’d love to see them swap Protas and Brown next game, but honestly that second like was pretty good as is.

    Sheary with Dowd and Hathaway is a beautiful fourth line.

    Eller was invisible. Just give McMichael a shot there.

  23. TheCapsFan

    How bout that guy Dylan Strome? Knew that was gonna be one of the best offseason pickups for any team

  24. capitarider

    Lol carlson lost us the game because we were down 3-2 already? Guess with Sammy gone Carly will get even more hate. Darcy was atrocious as was the D, nothing changed with our overpriced, below average goalie.

  25. SirWilliamFay

    Why is the left side of Ovie’s neck purple?

  26. ArbitraryOrder

    We can say Carlson had a horrific game and realize that the « trade Carlson », « worst Defenseman ever », « make him 3rd pair » takes are based in reactionary emotions and not facts.

    [Like it or not Carlson is a 90th percentile defenseman going both ways, and 60th percentile in his own end.](https://www.japersrink.com/2022/5/24/23095580/2021-22-rink-wrap-john-carlson)

    The data also shows that when he plays more than 24 minutes a night his play at both ends deteriorates and it hurts himself and the team. Hence why he was slow as shit on that rush goal. The coaching staff sucks at player utilization, hence the PowerPlay also being horrendous. The problem is the coaches treat him like Victor Hedman when he is like Dougie Hamilton. Which is also complete insanity when Orlov’s game is more similar to Hedman’s than Carlson’s is to Hedman.

    Man I will always be grateful for Carlson but he’s just not it anymore 🙁
