KARL ALZNER RUMORS & GOSSIP

Caps Succeed in Losing Weirdest Game of NHL Season

If you thought Thursday’s Capitals vs. Jets game had one of the weirdest endings of any recent NHL game, you’re not alone. Four goals in the third period–one on a Dustin Byfuglien shot from center ice that deflected off Karl Alzner’s stick– sent a game that had been previously scoreless into overtime and finally a shootout (which the Capitals lost in...

Karl Alzner Deserves a Thank-You

About the only nice thing a Caps fan could say after Tuesday’s game against the Islanders was that the postgame weather was unusually pleasant— almost 60 degrees (heck, even January didn’t show up for the game). Losses like the Capitals suffered Tuesday—roughly 60 minutes of missed assignments and wandering aimlessly around the ice, everyone playing their own game instead...

Hat Tricks, Scary Finishes, and Alznergeddon

Jay Beagle knows what it’s like to be up against a seasoned NHL scrapper in your first big-league fight. On Friday, however, Beagle was merely an observer to teammate and good friend Karl Alzner’s first NHL bout against Steve Downie of the Tampa Bay Lightning. “Anytime there’s a fight happening, you never know what’s gonna happen, so you’re obviously hoping for the...

World Juniors Special for Carlson, Alzner

For most of their professional careers, Capitals defensemen John Carlson and Karl Alzner have been attached at the hip.  Carlson, 21, and Alzner, 23, who were drafted two years apart, began their professional journeys with the Caps' American Hockey League affiliate, the Hershey Bears, developing alongside current Caps like Michal Neuvirth, Mathieu Perreault, and Jay Beagle...

Ovechkin Needs To Bring His Game Every Night

from Tarik El-Bashir of the Washington Post, “When he’s getting scoring chances, hitting, bringing that energy, it fires everybody else up,” defenseman Karl Alzner said after a 4-1 victory, perhaps the Capitals’ most thorough of the Dale Hunter era. “He’s the most exciting guy in the league. “When,” Alzner added after a pause, “...

Washington Capitals Re-Sign Shutdown D-man Karl Alzner

The Washington Capitals Organization have reached a deal with arguably one of the best up-and-coming defense man in the NHL. The new contract is a two-year extension to his current contract estimated at around $2.57 million. This is less than Alzner was looking for, and  more than what the Capitals were looking to deal out. However, the deal presents less of a cap hit than Alzner...

Caps re-sign D Alzner to 2-year deal

Defenseman Karl Alzner re-signed with the Washington Capitals on Friday, agreeing to a $2.57 million, two-year contract. The 22-year-old Alzner will make $1.3 million next season and $1.27 in 2012-13 - salaries he figures are lower than perhaps he might have deserved. ''For me, personally, I think that there was a little left on the table,'' Alzner said in a conference...

Checking in with Alzner’s Mustache

Before Friday’s 5-3 win against Boston, rookie defenseman Karl Alzner went on Twitter, asking his 4,743 followers to donate to help fight men’s cancer (not that the tweets appear in reverse chronological order). I caught up with Alzner after the game so he could make a video plea for fans to donate to this cause. Go here to donate to Alzner’s Movember so he can...
