There’s only one NHL game today.


It’s the back half of a back to back for both teams. As it should be if the league is going to schedule these things. I see no reports of a morning skate. Don’t know what the lines might be. Coach mentioned possibly tweaking them last night post game.

Lappy out, Milano in. TvR out, Chisholm in.

Fuck me.. Monumental+ only covers 150 miles around the DMV.    These greedy assholes. I hope streams are solid, cause I won't buy another fucking streaming platform at all if I can help it! F em all!!

Caps media didn’t post Skate Shavings until 5:40 this evening. I am seriously unimpressed with the front office.

I’d call and bitch them up and down. At a minimum I’d get a refund. It is exceedingly difficult to maintain, much less grow the fan base if the fans can’t watch the game.

I found out before I paid for Monumental. Streaming is a complete hassle these days. I need to do some research and see where the streams are now that they shut down StreamEast and I think Sportsurge. Anyway, the game is on NHLnetwork. And of course they're using MSG announcers.


Im glad we got a goal, cause we're getting heavily outplayed. Losing 90% of board battles. Chucky keeping us in this one.
