Caps lose 4-1

Impressive…thread before 10am 


But no Caps lines?   

[alta]

the lines would be a guess right now, with the offense getting shuffled the past several games for Leonard, and a possibility of Protas out


and with that, word is Protas is out “week to week”

[richkrt99]

Week to week. OUCH.
 Superglue and compression bandage and jamb it back in the skates
We need Big Pro
I’m teasing but hope he’s back for start of playoffs

[Mickstix]

Looks like he has appx. 2 weeks before the Playoffs start. Hope it doesn't take longer than that. 

[alta]

NHL has said if OV scores today there will be an on ice ceremony at that moment, expected to last about 10 minutes.

[alta]

Sorokin in net for the Islanders, OV has never scored on Sorokin

PK time

[Mickstix]

Found a JoeB/Locker stream!    We're down by 2. 

[Mickstix]

Is monumental fucked for you locals? Seeing bitching on X, and my video is about 15 seconds behind the voice.. 

[Surreylily]

I don't understand why you dont use the links provided in the thread?   

[Mickstix]

I don't understand why you dont use the links provided in the thread?   

I do, when I need one. It's better now, but Monumental was apparently having problems earlier.

[alta]

Monumental had some glitches in the first, we didn’t get to see the second goal

[alta]

Caps down 2-0 after one

[Surreylily]

Our D need to give Lindy a bit more support this period.

[Surreylily]

We dont look like we're trying very hard.

We may not particularly want Ovi to score this  game, but there's nothing to stop the rest of 'em.   

[Rey Capalpatine]

Just got home from work.  The downside The Caps are down 2-0.  The upside I didn't miss Ovie getting the goal?
