Am I a bad Caps fan if I'm away past the point of caring about another regular season award for Ovi?

Nope.
But he's already got the award, let's see them get him a round number....

Mights on Ice is always the 1st intermission... and it's highly entertaining because of the heard mentality at that age, it's just one big mass that follows the puck around the rink

[alta]

holy crap! was Carlson physical at the end of that breakaway??

   Lmao no kidding

[ArJunaZ]

That was fun to watch. Damn, I wish Ovie got his #50.  Still an awesome year for the GR8 one.

[Stealyerfaceoff]

His team mates obviously like him. They tried so hard to get him #50.

See y'all next week. Go Caps!

[ArJunaZ]

When is the  NHL going to fix the stupid playoff format/structure?

[CapsFan1981]

  Now the best part of season starts next week.  LET'S GO CAPS!!

   The Devils refused to pull there goalie when they had the opportunity even though it is the normal thing to do down 1 or 2 goals. They really didn't want Ovi to get to 50

[alta]

oh Joe B, that's horrendous..


I realize in his line of work he's got to have 100 jackets and 200 ties, but the ones he's got on tonight need to be burned

   The way things worked the format doesn't look as bad this year. If they insist on divisions I'd prefer if the division winners get seeded 1 and 2 and then 6 wildcards in each conference.

[ArJunaZ]

I hope the Caps slipped out and changed to fresh jerseys and a fresh undershirt so the fans don't get stinky signed jerseys they can't wash.

It worked out better this year, but it's still senseless most years.

we are talking about a league that thinks a diving call should be matching minors

Good point!
 

[ArJunaZ]

Ouch!  Al Koken called Kuzy Ovie. 

[ArJunaZ]

I would have liked to see the Hens in round one so we could avoid hearing the NBCSP goons and their sickening anti-Caps bias and Sindy stroking.

Probably 1 more year where the best teams play each other in the 2nd round.. Or, right about the time the Caps start to really suck again, so it won't matter.. Needs to be the east vs the west though and IMO the top 8 teams make it, period.. 1 plays 8 and so on.


Oh, congrats on the domain name!!
