TNT game huh. I guess it's better than having to steal the stream, since it'd normally be blacked out here. I don't think it'll be blacked out anyway?? But no JoeB and Locker (for me) for sure.

Taylor Raddysh 16 was drafted by Tampa, and will face his brother Darren Raddysh 43 tonight. Taylor is 26, Darren is 28.

Caps down 2-0 after one

[Surreylily]

    Hmmm.

Something I've noticed when our guys are in the O zone.   When they're about to take a shot from nearer the blue line, they always fanny about with the puck instead of shooting straight away.  Those few seconds allow their D to get into place.  it happens a lot and especially on our PP.
I get that sometimes the puck gets to them a little skewwhiffey, but still.........   

[Mickstix]

This mother fucker.    Fuck him!



If the Dad's weren't in the stands I'd call this one.  But nobody wants to look like a chump in front of their dad.. I expect a push here in the 2nd!!

[Surreylily]

If Lindy lets in another early one in the second, do you think Carbs'll pull him and put ThomCat in?

[Mickstix]

If Lindy lets in another early one in the second, do you think they'll pull him and put ThomCat in?

I doubt it, but if he keeps taking L's we won't be going back and forth much longer.
