The Washington Capitals are ready for the loffs and so are we. To inaugurate the postseason, here now is the return of Not Up For Debate, the most beloved series ever on this site.
In today’s episode: What if the Caps were characters in the best video game of the last year, Hades?
Craig Anderson, Sisyphus
This whole season has been futile.
Nicklas Backstrom, Nyx
Sometimes inscrutable, but still a loving force that could never be replaced.
John Carlson, Theseus
Okay, we get it, you’re good, just take it down a notch.
Zdeno Chara, Chaos
(Super old.)
Brenden Dillon, Ol’ Bouldy
Almost certainly has a function, probably.
Nic Dowd, Asterius
A bit clumsy sometimes. Maybe a bit overshadowed, but still a real stud imo.
Lars Eller, Artemis
On the hunt. Possibly for tiger, or horse, or moose. Whatever.
Carl Hagelin, Megaera
Ya hate to see him struggle.
Garnet Hathaway, Skelly
Just here to bang bodies.
Nick Jensen, Thanatos
He showed up, eventually.
Evgeny Kuznetsov, Hypnos
He slept in, I guess?
Anthony Mantha, Hades
Seemed a lot more intimidating at the start. Has a good dog.
Dmitry Orlov, House Contractor
Always present, often overlooked.
T.J. Oshie, Poseidon
Poseidon has the heaviest frat vibes in all of Olympus.
Alex Ovechkin, Cerberus
Can either be fearsome or friendly.
Michael Raffl, Charon
Was super helpful late in the game.
Ilya Samsonov, Dionysus
The good-time boy.
Justin Schultz, Athena
Secretly clutch.
Conor Sheary, Achilles
Glad he’s on our team.
Daniel Sprong, Eurydice
Always a treat to see this one.
Trevor van Riemsdyk, Orpheus
Too much free time on his hands.
Vitek Vanecek, Dusa
Just happy to be included.
Tom Wilson, Tisiphone
Thinks everyone is a murrrr… der… errrr…
