B21 Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 I'm no Boudreau fan but it seems the inmates are running the asylum in DC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyerrod Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 I'm no Boudreau fan but it seems the inmates are running the asylum in DC.I think the inmates are going to find that the new warden is going to be a little tougher than the last.......

B21 Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 << I think the inmates are going to find that the new warden is going to be a little tougher than the last... >>Indeed. This isn't a "taskmaster" to "player's coach" move, a la Hitchcock to Stevens. This is Hitchcock to Hitchcock on 'roids. VERY curious to see how this works out.

doom88 Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 I think this is exactly what the Caps need unfortunately. And here I wasn't worried about Washington in April...dammit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canoli Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 yep, I agree Doom - the Caps were a write-off with BB in charge. Now...who knows what Hunter may be able to accomplish. There's plenty of talent to work with in the lineup, and DH isn't likely to put up with any b.s. from Semin or anyone else. It's certainly possible Hunter can whip them into shape by April...
