No Backstrom again tonight, that is disappointing and getting worrisome.  What is troubling is that in the game he got hurt which was the Ducks game there was no indication that he got hurt.  He didn’t leave the ice or anything to indicate he was hurt.  In fact if memory serves me, he was on the ice for one of the last shifts in the game.  While most reports indicate it is an upper body injury I have also seen reports it is a lower body injury so I don’t know what is going on.  I sure hope he plays Friday.

Same thing happened to the Blues' Sammy Blais. Took a hit, could tell it stung but finished the game and scored a goal. Required wrist surgery and a re-eval 10 weeks later...

Bummer.. He was wearing a full contact jersey in the last practice. Figured he be ready to go by now..  :-\ Least they were finally showing some chemistry last game. Need him back asap though.

I hope the Caps can deliver tonight.  Last night was pretty awesome to watch. I've been up since 5:15am. Going to be a late droopy eyed one again.

Tonight will be the 7th game in a row that Backstrom will miss.  With the Caps having severe salary cap issues and having to shorten their bench to keep in compliance with the cap, you'd think it would make sense to put him on LTIR retroactively, keep him out for 3 more games, and use the space to bring up extra players while they are on the West Coast.


I think there is one reason and one reason only that they aren't doing this, and it's an indication of how much they value Backstrom.  If he were to go on LTIR and HAVE to miss 3 more games, the tenth game would be against the Bruins.  I think the team, if they feel he can be back by then, want him on the ice to play defense against the Bruins' top line and they are willing to go through all sorts of salary cap gyrations simply to have him available for that one game.

Interesting thought.  That is a huge game coming up. I've been anticipating that one for a while. One week from tonight.

Samsonov is looking solid in the net.  Seems very calm and confident.  That is good to see.  The second goal by Carlson will make all the highlight goals shown tonight.  It was amazing.

Hey folks!


Rush, (aka molasses thumbs), here, attempting to keep pace on the GDT!


In the heavily popular, “lip service” world, that NHL coaches have to play in occasionally, with the media, It is so cool to witness, in real time, evidence, proving that an aspect of something they’ve been working on has now began to bear fruit!!


Enter coach Rierden, and his declaration, during preseason this year, that the coaches would be working with John Carlson on his offensive skills!!


 A few seasons ago, had I witnessed a goal similar to John Carlson‘s 2nd goal tonight, I would’ve blabbed on about what a crappy defenseman when he was, and spouted off something  along the lines of “even a blind squirrel, gets a nut sometimes”,  or any other analogy that would fit!!


Simply put, John Carlson has obviously put the time in, AND Rierden had the foresight to make the call, to allow special training time at practice, for it to happen!!


Hands down, this training has really paid off!!
 In my opinion, I don’t think there’s anyway JOHN Carlson would have made that kind of quick, and coordinated move, to make that goal, just a couple seasons ago!! NO WAY!!


 Kudos to both Rierden, and Carly for a nicely coordinated job well done!!!


(Ok, he’s still a defensive pussy, BUT THATS NOT THE POINT)!!😁😆😁😆


 Every month, John Carlson continues to show the value he is to this team!


Rush 

Always hopeful, yet discontent -
He knows CHANGES aren’t permanent -
              BUT CHANGE IS!!!

RUSH - from “Tom Sawyer”

After a wicked game last night the Caps do not appear to be slowing down tonight.  Great to see this!
