Great, another fucking NHLnet game tonight vs Carolina.  :clown: :poop:


It’s on Monumental in these parts. Caps dot com says it’s also on the NHL network.

Last night Phillips had 5:32 of ice time and Snively had 5:43. That doubled Phillips ice time from the Pilly game. It was about a minute less for Snively.


Caps are off til Wednesday, when they start yet one more back to back.

Still shocked we came away with points last night. I don't think we won a shift after the 10 minute mark. lol

It’s also been 4 days since an apparent deal was made with Eathan Bear, and still no deal.

Snively has been sent back to Hershey. Which means either Oshie or Pacs will be playing Wednesday night.

I’ve read the rules on the holiday roster freeze, and I don’t think signing Bear is affected as he currently an unsigned free agent. Though I wouldn’t be surprised if they make it official today just to be sure.

Lots of shit goin on today. Team could look totally different here in the next few games. Paci, Bear, Miro, Lapi. That's a lot of new bodies to get in synch with.

It appears the deal is done, except for filing the paperwork with the NHL..

“The 5-11, 197-pound defenseman joins an already solid defensive pool for D.C. The right side has three regulars in the mix right now: John Carlson, Trevor van Riemsdyk and Nick Jensen. Beyond them, there are not a lot of NHL-ready right-handed defensemen in the system, with Vincent Iorio being next on the depth chart followed by veteran Dylan McIlrath and Chase Priskie.”

Miro set for his debut tonight! Apparently along side Snively and Kuzy. Hope they gel quick and look good!  :cross:

Yep, I’ve seen Miro is definitely starting his first NHL game. But I have yet to see anything on lines, or zebras.

Caps dot com says, and the tv guide agrees, tonight’s game is on TNT and Monumental at 7:30. It’s rare a national game also gets the local telecast.
