Greg Young @gregyoung.bsky.social · 29/06/2026Fwiw, I’m all in on Ilya Protas next year and think there’s a decent chance he’s your Calder winner. 050

Greg Young @gregyoung.bsky.social · 01/05/2026Okay except Ezra's book explicitly acknowledges and deals with this tradeoff. He has an ENTIRE CHAPTER dedicated to it! 010

In it, Corey & I give an unacceptably late season preview for the Caps, try to explain Protas, and touch on a few other NHL topics: www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZEN...youtube.comJapers Rink Radio Episode 246: The Unacceptably Late Season Preview (w/ Corey Sznajder) |...YouTube video by Greg Young 021
Greg Young @gregyoung.bsky.social · 10/10/2025Apologies for the delay (if you want to know what’s been going on, just google “Novo Nordisk”). Anyways, I’m going to be bringing back Japers Rink Radio, at least for a bit! Our first guest will be @allthreezones.bsky.social and we’ll be doing an unacceptably late season preview of the Caps! 021
Greg Young @gregyoung.bsky.social · 23/09/2025Feels like the Caps lines on Game 1 look something like: Ovi-Strome-Beauv Protas-Dubois-Leonard Miro-McMike-Wilson Duhaime-Dowd-Sourdif Fehevary-Carlson Sandin-Roy Chych-TvR 100

Greg Young @gregyoung.bsky.social · 26/05/2025Tbh we can be honest that they’ll probably take a step back. Last year was a 99th percentile outcome. 020
Greg Young @gregyoung.bsky.social · 19/05/2025Okay but actually, the Caps should try to sign Mitch Marner. 510
Greg Young @gregyoung.bsky.social · 16/05/2025The article this links to doesn’t mention Alex Ovechkin one time. 350
Greg Young @gregyoung.bsky.social · 16/05/2025Don't really get the "Caps were a fraud" narrative. They were a 52% xG team, and most smart Caps fans openly admitted that this wasn't a likely cup team, just a very good one. 270
Greg Young @gregyoung.bsky.social · 16/05/2025Been a really wonderful and fun year. Appreciate you all. 2130
Greg Young @gregyoung.bsky.social · 16/05/2025Ovechkin playing point on the power play ain’t the answer 110
Greg Young @gregyoung.bsky.social · 14/05/2025lol this third line is getting stapled to the bench the second the Caps are trailing 010

Which Caps player(s) do you want to see more from in Round 2? J.P.: I’d like to see more from Logan Thompson, not because he underperformed (he didn’t), but if they get more from him, it’ll be pretty hard to lose. But in the spirit of the question, I’ve gotta go with John Carlson, […] 051
Greg Young @gregyoung.bsky.social · 05/05/2025Wow, your model gives the Caps a 0.02% chance of winning? So interesting! Tell me more! 160

Greg Young @gregyoung.bsky.social · 02/05/2025Going into the playoffs, would’ve been fine with the Caps just beating Montreal. But now that they’ve made it this far…might as well just beat Carolina too 040
Greg Young @gregyoung.bsky.social · 01/05/2025This Habs powerplay is something else. Not sure they can slow it, kinda just need to avoid penalties tbh. 000

Greg Young @gregyoung.bsky.social · 28/04/2025Strong agree. In particular he’s had a couple of point blank chances (see right after Mang’s goal last night) that he should bury. 110
Greg Young @gregyoung.bsky.social · 28/04/2025Caps are missing a guy who averaged more 5v5 points than McDavid, Crosby, and Matthews and that’s kinda been forgotten? 140
