KARL ALZNER RUMORS & GOSSIP

The saga of Karl Alzner, a Bowflex, and Dale Hunter's departure

The Washington Capitals announced today that Dale Hunter will not return to coach the team next season. The notice of Hunter's departure, although not entirely unforeseen, was abrupt- coming just two days after the Caps were eliminated from the playoffs by the New York Rangers in Game 7 Saturday night, and being relayed to General Manager George McPhee just a few hours before...

Key question for Capitals in offseason: Will Hunter return?

Some of the Washington Capitals will look back at their playoff run and say they knocked off the Stanley Cup champion Boston Bruins and fell one goal short against the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference. Not Karl Alzner. The 23-year-old defenseman sees the Capitals' 2011-12 season as one half-empty. "I'm going to view it as an underachieved season, in my opinion...

Karl Alzner Returns Home From Triple-OT Loss To Rangers And Finds This…

Poor guy. After Karl Alzner of the New York Rangers had just played in a marathon game against the Washington Capitals and lost in the 3rd overtime, all he wanted to do was go home and fall asleep. To his surprise though, he returned home to find his dogs had terrorized his house. Kind of cute, kind of sad, and kind of funny. H/T Hot Clicks Article found on: Cosby Sweaters

Karl Alzner and the Capitals suffered a tough loss on Wednesday night after falling to the New York Rangers in three -- yes, three -- overtimes.

Caps want to take advantage of wear and tear on Bruins

Alzner Shoots (Photo credit: clydeorama) The Washington Capitals have done a lot of talking and at times whining during this series that I don't hear the Boston Bruins doing this as much. I haven't watched them enough this season to know if it's their modus operandi or not. If the Capitals think they are going to run the Boston Bruins out of the building they are sorely...

Alzner tells Lucic to stop crying

The Washington Capitals might want to have Karl Alzner review a few of Lucic's fight video's because the last thing that Lucic is; is a whiner. I got a chuckle out of this as well. Alzner is probably lucky that he was rescued by the ref before Lucic got a hold of him. If Alzner is confused he can confer with Paul Gaustad of Buffalo. "Well, there's a lot of [proof...

Karl Alzner calls Milan Lucic a crybaby, could be in for a beating (Video)

Karl Alzner may earn respect from his teammates for standing up to Milan Lucic on Monday night, but he may have also signed himself up for a beating. During a chippy 4-3 Boston win that went back and forth all night, a scuffle broke out late in the third period. Per usual, Lucic was at the center of it. When Alzner came up behind him and put him in a headlock during the dust-up,...

Dirty, Rotten Karl Alzner

When a man in a suit walks into a room wielding a Tupperware (or was it Rubbermaid?) container full of baked goods, everyone’s guard is instantly let down. When the lid is popped and cupcakes emerge, the assembly turns into my third grade classroom (hi Ms. Thomas!). In this Cake Love/Georgetown Cupcakes-mad town, there is no surer way to win friends and influence people than with...
