50 Mission Caps: A Net for Catching Days
http://fiftymissioncaps.blogspot.com/2010/11/net-for-catching-days.html
Friday, November 12, 2010. A Net for Catching Days. A schedule defends from chaos and whim. It is a net for catching days. It is a scaffolding on which a worker can stand and labor with both hands at sections of time.". I've mentioned here how I'm not in love with the way Bruce Boudreau manages his goalies, so I'll offer up my opinion about how the rest of the month should probably look. This assumes that Varlamov gets 1-2 good rehab starts in Hershey over the next 5 days:. Sat, Nov 13 @ Buffalo: Neuvirth.

50 Mission Caps: Road Apples
http://fiftymissioncaps.blogspot.com/2010/10/road-apples.html
Wednesday, October 27, 2010. Watch out for the aforementioned slow start. In seven starts, Neuvirth has surrendered the game's first goal five times; he's given up eight first period goals and only has one scoreless first period on the season. It's hard to play from behind, and it's hard to win on the road; trying to do both is a bad idea. See how well (or not well) Neuvirth is able to control the pace of play. Washington is banged up, especially along the blue line, and you can bet. Game 9: @ Carolina.

Wednesday, October 20, 2010. The Men They Couldn't Hang. And so it is that fans view goaltenders as ones and zeros. Goal, No Goal. Win, Loss. Comfort, Concern. Asset, Liability.

50 Mission Caps: December 2010
http://fiftymissioncaps.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 29, 2010. If It Can Be Broke Then It Can Be Fixed. But no, defense alone does not win championships. So I'm just going to say it: I think changing to a more defensive-oriented system is a bad idea. *. Also 3.10. So you have to have both your offense and defense clicking to get it done. The Caps haven't done enough on either side, finishing sixth in playoff goals per game in both '09 and '10, and seventh and eighth, respectively, in playoff GAA. Leads is. In fact, the most surprisi...

Thursday, April 7, 2011. The Playoff Goalie Manifesto. Caps fans certainly have plenty to talk about these days.injuries, peaking at the right time, potential playoff pairings. And of course goaltending. Lots about goaltending. Neuvirth or Varlamov (or Holtby). Opinions have been voiced. Lines have been drawn. But coaches are usually full of crap about goalies.

50 Mission Caps: Breakdowns Come, and Breakdowns Go
http://fiftymissioncaps.blogspot.com/2010/11/you-know-breakdowns-come-and-breakdowns.html
Monday, November 8, 2010. Breakdowns Come, and Breakdowns Go. I had every intention of writing part two of the "Michal Neuvirth needs a day off" series, but since he just had one, we'll save parts two and three for another time. And even though I watched every minute of last night's exceptional performance by Braden Holtby, several. Listen, I really. November 10, 2010 at 8:21 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

50 Mission Caps: November 2010
http://fiftymissioncaps.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 22, 2010. But Only a Fool Would Complain? SoI'm assuming the "Braden Holtby is ready for the NHL" crew is ready to take a deep breath? And the "Let's trade Varly" bandwagon has plenty of good seats available right about now? And we can temper the "Michal Neuvirth is definitely ready to handle the demands of a #1 starter" talk just a bit, at least for the time being? Can the team expect consistent play in the crease night in and night out? Right now.I don't know. Monday, November 15, 2010.
