Great goal by Kuznetsov.

ESPN coverage of the World Cup...It's like sportscasters revel in reminding us that the Pred's got Forsberg from us for Marty freaking Erat...

I hate Tortorella so much.

Quick is getting torched

Well...3 Caps will be back in DC sooner than later...

And the Rags will be starting the season under a black cloud (except for Zucarello)

Didn't Forsberg used to be a Caps prospect?

23 and younger players that were not placed on the US or Canada Teams.

The best 3 on 3 OT I have ever seen...it was spectacular...

Can they still be NHL'ers? I think they interviewed a player between periods who played in the NHL.

It was pretty funny how the announcers mentioned the trade as soon as he scored. I wonder how many years that will go on.

I didn't see third period or OT. Who won?

North America 4-3. If you can catch a replay of the OT...do it...it will be well worth the 4 minutes or so you spend on it.

Yes...

I think Conor McDavid will be the best player in hockey in a year or two. Wondered about the hype but he is awfully good.

Good show. Will do.

ESPN is focused on Ovi today...

The Great 8 with a great assist...Russia up 1-0 over the Finns...

I think the Forsberg thing is moot now. We couldn't have afforded him and gotten oshie and Williams. Not sure he is a clear upgrade over either of them. Maybe you could have gotten rid of mojo to free up money for him. Still think forsberg makes a mil or two more than him. Point is, you'd have to get rid of a pricey player to fit forsberg on the team now

Ali the Baseball Cat · « **Reply #47:** September 22, 2016, 04:30:01 PM »

Besides, right now we very auspiciously have Tre Kronor. No room for another Swede.

You'd hopefully have Forsberg locked up for more than one year, unlike Oshie and Williams. I like Williams, but 2016-2017 is likely his last rodeo. Mojo doesn't hold a candle to Forsberg.

Hope we can keep Oshie, but he will not be cheap. I also hope GMGM loses his mind one more time, and Las Vegas picks Mojo in the expansion draft.

Forsberg costs 6 million. Gonna be hard to fit a number of that size on the caps while ovie, backstrom, holtby, niskanen, and orpik are here. And then you gotta pay kuzy.
