@TheCupitals In comparison Kyrou had similar but slightly worse possession numbers on a worse team but also has more play driving ability. Pro Willy PLD all good possession guys that can’t drive play. Leno a poor possession guy but can drive play

@TheCupitals 100% an amazing possession guy, not exactly soemthing we lack but he’d still be an amazing improvement. If I had the choice I’d prefer a play driver rather than another possession player but I don’t think this offseason will have many options

@TheCupitals Maybe not a poor skater but statistically definitely a pretty below average skater. I think he’d be an elite pickup talent wise but he’d be more of a big improvement over an archetype we already have, whereas Kyrou is just as good and very unique for our team

@KirshnerJacob I think he suffers from big-man syndrome. Not a poor skater by any stretch for his size but tends to look slow because of how big he is. I keyed in on a few of his breakaway goals in his reel and he was able to create/maintain separation a good deal of the time.

@TheCupitals I’m just slightly hesitant on the idea of adding another poor skater to the team unless it’s robo, still if no other options are available yeah I’d do both ones and CMM in an instant, think it would cost more tho

@TheCupitals If both could be had for the exact same package (unlikely) I’d personally choose Kyrou still. Kyrou is an archetype we don’t have, speedy elite 2 way game. Brady is something similar to Willy but more offensively talented with a great shot and is much slower

@kingconnor24 This is why it would be devastating to lose Mahoney. He uses the perfect blend of analytics and in game evaluation to determine the upside and value of a guy, not afraid of taking the small guy that produces well like so many teams are

@allzcapz @TheCupitals I feel like the caps struggle around halfway thru the season started when Carbs gave up on the idea of HD chances bc he saw no one could finish anyway, and then we just sucked the rest of the szn. I hope he goes back to that system it’s effective if you get finishers

@TheCupitals Old school out of touch. Yes it is his job to get the team going. Especially with young guys you need to know what motivates them. Bigger problem is organization disconnect. Carberry is fine with over passing for higher danger chances this guy says shoot from everywhere.

@TheCupitals We’re getting to the point that LT is in that tier 1 of goalies with vasy helley sorokin and igor. Maybe like tier 1A is still vasy helley and igor with sorokin and LT in 1B but either way he’s insane, the deal we have him on is great

@MikeBartner A lot of the stuff he does is good in theory until it’s actually utilized. The lottery odds he created are so stupid

Adam Silver gotta be the most spineless commissioner in sports history lmfao. The rule is dumb, but if you make the rule you gotta enforce it until you change it in the offseason, not this favoritism ruling.
Shams Charania@ShamsCharania

Just in: The NBA and NBPA have ruled in favor of Lakers' Luka Doncic and Pistons' Cade Cunningham on their Extraordinary Circumstances Challenge for the 65-game award rule, making both eligible for all 2025-26 season honors such as MVP and All-NBA teams, sources tell ESPN.

@MikeBartner I like the idea of top 3 in each division plus 2 WC that we have rn, but hate the actual playoff format where u play in division for 2 rounds. I also personally don’t like the idea of a play in, give us 3-2-1-0 and the 8 best teams will make it no need for play in

Just curious because I know a lot of people HATE the idea of a play in, but which system would you prefer: Option A: Current system Divisional Seeding Option B: 1-8 Seeding With An 8v9 Play In

@KirshnerJacob @TheCupitals What makes you think you beat the pens? They almost beat you minus almost every talented player they have.

@LukeCerpinTaxt For sure lots of teams would love to have him I just don’t see quite enough offensive ceiling for us to treat him as a core piece rather than just complimentary. wait and see in negotiations for whether he’s ok with taking a cheapish long term deal vs more aav but short imo

@KirshnerJacob For sure but I feel like he’s worth it because he can play all over the lineup, is fast, physical, and has some skill to him. Wouldn’t mind long term but understand going shorter.

Leonard and Soudif RFA 2027-2028 Protas, Hutson and Miro RFA 2028-2029 I really hope Caps don't mess around with these. Sign all of them to max contracts as soon as you can. I can understand not doing it for Miro, but need to do it for the other 4.

Where traded 1st rounders sit with 1-3 games left for every team. Lotta night is gearing up to be fun. 🍿 VGK’s pick is 28th because they’re 1st in the Pacific rn and the final 4 teams picks move to the final 4 spots. Also OTT’s pick they got back is 32nd.

The Wizards haven’t won 50 games in a season since 1978-79 They haven’t played in a conference finals game since 1978-79 (longest drought in American sports) They have exactly 50 wins in their last 250 games (3+ seasons) They have the worst win % in the NBA from 2000-2026, 2010-2026 and 2020-2026 They were 1 lottery ball away from Zion, Wemby & Flagg Gilbert Arenas pulled out a Glock in the locker room on Christmas Eve Instead of signing Kevin Durant in 2016 they signed Ian Mahinmi John Wall slipped in his bathtub and shattered his Achilles right after signing a $250 million supermax and never played another game with the team They drafted Kwame Brown They drafted Jan Vesely over Kawhi. Vesely retired with more fouls than points They wanted Steph Curry but traded the 5th pick in 09 for Randy Foye instead They officially have the worst record in the NBA again and if Adam Silver gives this team the 5th pick there will be legitimate riots in DC

@TheCupitals While I don’t think losing PLD is a good enough excuse for us missing the playoffs, the red wings straight up don’t have a very good team and were way overperforming. Wings roster is so mid and yzerman should be fired

@TheCupitals We’re lucky to have this FO, “retools” don’t work bc you don’t end up getting good enough prospects in the draft, unless you have Ross mahoney. Leno, hutty, pro, Cristall with only Leno being a first rounder is absurd. Issue is no superstars with this model, maybe hutty tho

Great interview here. Ovechkin truly undecided. Carbery is our guy. Young guns are here. Hoping to make big trades. Common sense explanation of why we’re where we are in the standings (PLD injury). All things you want to hear from GMCP #ALLCAPS
