John Carlson is 34, leads the NHL an average TOI, has 21 points in his last 26 games (including GWGs in the last two must-wins) and turned in one of the team's best performances of the season last night with Sandin/Jensen out. Has been the team's most important skater for years.
@JapersRink @hockeystatcards @JFreshHockey People who complain about him don't remember the stretch last year without him. Or they do and don't understand hockey very well
@JapersRink @hockeystatcards @JFreshHockey That’s why I’m going bonkers about the Caps needing an heir to Carlson in the system if they really want this to be a re-tool on the fly.
@JapersRink @hockeystatcards @JFreshHockey Yep he's great but I still want them to win more before I start giving out celebratory BJs .. They to to win tonight give us some playoff hockey 😇
