In today’s post practice presser, coach said same lines as last game but Thompson starts. Lindy starts tomorrow.

I'd like to see them shake things up and bring up Miro or somebody else to send a message to some guys like Beauvy and Lappierre and Sourdif. Over the years, our franchise has been the worst about never making any controversial "healthy scratch" moves to motivate some guys. Even Protas could use a little cattle prod right now. He should be all over the ice and using that big body all the time. Lately, he has just been cruising.

Edmonton has nearly the same record as the Caps (Oils have played 2 more games and have 2 more ties).
Good news is they are about as leaky as they come - allowing 3rd most (75) goals so far this season.
Not sure how that plays out with the Caps being so scoring anemic so far this year.
I expect we will struggle with their speed, and for sure don't want to let them on the PP.
Fn TNT game.  Well at least that ole Redneck round here should be able to catch it on TNT

Funny story. I tried Sling when I cancelled Hulu. It pretty much sucked. Guide was stupid and didn't get all the channels I had. Soooooo, I said fuck it and went back to Hulu when the month ran out. (figured at the least, if I couldn't find a local stream I'd just watch the opponents telecast on espn+) But guess what, they still have Monumental. Not sure how or why, but they do.

What was Sourdifs penalty for? They were too concerned drooling over McJesus' hand pass to himself to tell us what the foul was.
