Caps up 1-0 after one

[Mickstix]

Looks like were just gonna fart around till they tie it up. Then maybe we'll put together a shift or two. 

[Mickstix]

Knew it. 

[alta]

1 to 1 after two

[Mickstix]

Glad we had a good 1st half of the season. We look about as pedestrian as last year, lately. 12 points over the last 10 games. Weeeeeak.

[Beaglefan2]

TVR gets his stick chopped in  half right before we get the penalty and they score.  Caps better be pissed coming out for the third!

[alta]

[Mickstix]

Squeaked out another undeserved point.
