Holtby will be fun to watch but outside of Ovie and John Carlson (NJ Rockets rule....Carlson, Bobby Sanguinetti, James Van Riemsdyk, Bobby Ryan and Kyle Palmieri all played for them or their former coaching director at some point in their youth careers) there isn't a whole lot to be excited about on the Caps. (Though their imitation of the Broad Street Bullies did scare the crap out of me!)
Your definately right on Holtby. Don't get me started on Ovie and Carlson because they aren't all the "team" players they are supposed to be ....... but thats the fun of it .......... constant DISAPPOINTMENT. Will be plenty of good hockey left though so now to root for someone to beat the Penguins.
Pens have been shown to not like Olivia Newton John, so whoever decides to "Lets Get Physical" has a good shot against them, especially if they get into Fleury's head early. I don't think Vokoun can take them more than another round.
Give Carlson some time, he's young and late developer. He was playing US Junior B as late as age 16 and has great wheels. He skates almost as well as Bobby Sanguinetti for a young D-man, and is far more physical with a harder shot.
