>With the return of Nicklas Backstrom and Tom Wilson on Sunday, winger Anthony Mantha was scratched for the first time in his Washington Capitals career. One day later, Mantha called the decision a “wake-up call.”

>“I think I had a good stretch, a bad stretch,” Mantha said Monday. “It’s part of hockey, I don’t think I was playing terrible. Obviously the minutes were going down, so decision to play me [9:48] in my last game there so, you kind of knew it was coming.”
Kinda sounds like the comments we heard right before trading him, doesn’t it? Wishing the best for both him and Vrana, but this is a reminder that it was a high-risk move for both teams at the time
He was a great player when he was mentally in it. But man he could float like a turd when he wasn’t.
You’d think being traded from the team that drafted you would be a wake up call. Maybe he hit the snooze button
He never struck me as particularly bright.
I do think him Bert and Larkin was a really good trio and the 200% effort by Bert/Larks complimented Manthas somewhat lack of effort. Too bad they honestly never played much together, i will always question that decision and there is video proof of Larkin doing it too.
