Next up, the Cap's captain should earn a few with his leave your skates and finish with the forearm(s) to the head checks.....and this is from someone who would prefer the Caps to beat the Pens.

mojo1917 Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 The punishment is just. The Caps were 34-9 without Orpik... is that right ? did they just get better for 3 games ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holtbeast Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 This is coming from a huge Caps fan and I feel the punishment for Orpik is point on. His shot was a cheap one and should be punished. Rules are rules and the league should start handing out suspensions accordingly no matter what team if the foul institutes it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlaskaFlyerFan Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Orpik owned up to the hit. Admitted it was late and a bad hit and he accepted the suspension. Good on him for that. Trotz was more of a jackass about it and tried to compare the Bellemare hit/suspension to this one. “I’m disappointed obviously with the suspension,” Trotz said. “Looking at it as Brooks said, it was a little bit late. I’m more disappointed in the length than anything. Dmitry Orlov (hit from Pierre-Edouard Bellemare) in the previous series, I thought it was career-ending. They get one game. “I’m disappointed, but I’m not surprised based on who we’re playing and all that. We’ll just go forward.” When asked to clarify his statement, making sure he meant to lob such an accusation, Trotz doubled down in his reply: “Yes. Take it for whatever you want.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trotz is trying to supplant Tortsie as the biggest whiner behind the bench? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
