Glad to see Eller back in DC. Sucks Lapierre hasn’t quite made the jump like CMM. But dude didn’t register a point till like a dozen games in? That ain’t going to cut it for a 3C.

Just strange they sent down Sgarbossa back to Hershey instead of Lapierre (Lapierre is waivers exempt). Figure you want him getting minutes down there at least, maybe alongside Miro. I understand if they only see Sgarbossa as depth fill in, cause he is. If they're keeping Lapierre up, is he just going to rotate on LW with Vrana with Milano out on IR? Not sure those very limited minutes are going to be best for his development.

Lappy is in no man’s land right now of being to good for The AHL but not good enough for the NHL. Sucks cause he’s easily the fastest skater on the Caps. He’s at least lucky that 3LW isn’t even set since Milano can’t stay healthy and Vrana needs motivation via the press box often.

I figure him and Vrana will rotate with the winds of how well they play, I just want him to get minutes if that's what he needs. Patience paid off with McMike, and it was needed b/c covid interrupted a lot of the development of guys who were drafted around then.

6 day break coming off a 0-3-1 record who are playing? The Jets.

Wow. Come playoffs guys will be able to get away with anything short of murdering a goalie, but Dowd grazes goalie blocker and no goal.
