ArJunaZ:
Damned DVR said I was watching live, but when I came back from a short excursion while watching on my iPhone I realized I was minutes ahead on my phone and the TV was way behind. Weird stuff.
Surreylily:
Some really lazy, sloppy passes and play since that last goal. :-(
alta:
the local inhabitants seem a bit disinterested in the game

Whether you want to admit it or not, this team is leading the Metro because all the other contending teams have taken as much time off as the Caps have.
This myth that the Caps take more "time off" or coast more than other teams is just that -- a myth.
The reality of this season is that the Caps are really a middle of the road team that has been just a tad more consistent than any of the other teams chasing them. That is why they are in first place.

Welcome to the boards.
Re-read [or perhaps just read] my post. Who said the Caps take more time off than anyone else? I just said I'm sick of this team taking nights off. So no is one claiming any supposed "myth".
The Caps are 3rd in the division in goals for, 3rd in PP%, 4th in PK% and 8th [dead last in the entire NHL] in shots per game. So perhaps it isn't such a stretch to wonder how this ridiculously inconsistent team in leading what many have called one of the best divisions..
I agree that we are a middle of the road team. Whether or not we have been more consistent than the others in the division would have required us to watch all the other teams. They may be where they are because thats as good a team as they can be. This team is capable of more than it delivers on too many nights. That was my point.

I want to see Carlson called up from Hershy, just for the confusion
