must be something wrong with Dowd, he isn’t my first choice to scratch

maybe, but I think he and Boyd are the most versatile exchanges.


Panik is on everyone's watch list, but I really don't think the Caps want to give up on him.


I do really like the fourth line with Dowd on it though.  Boyd has more offensive touch but I think the Lepper/Dowd/Hathy line has really good chemistry and they are definitely tough to play against.  The three of them together are pretty abrasive.


GO CAPS

[Mickstix]

Should of put him in for Panik.

[ArJunaZ]

Should of put him in for Panik.

Yes, he should have

[richkrt99]

Should of put him in for Panik.

You guys quit with the Panic.


It's gonna be okay. He's going to transform into a solid 3rd line winger worth about 2.75m a year.  Score about 10 Goals a year, with 10 assists and be a solid PK guy.

It's all in the name!
 

[Mickstix]

WTF? Hope this isn't how we respond to heavy forcheck teams..    Can't believe they're looking past Columbus again tonight. They're just out playing us.

[ArJunaZ]

 

Saw that coming

[Mickstix]

Good grief. I've seen it all now.. "Pride Night"  Just what the NHL needs..

[ArJunaZ]

Good grief. I've seen it all now.. "Pride Night"  Just what the NHL needs..

Is that the night they give out free fudge?
 

[alta]

not to impressed with the Caps 1st period, things had better pick up

[Mickstix]

Is that the night they give out free fudge?
 

   Probably...

[richkrt99]

Haha.  I thought I was the only old biggot here.

You guys must not be in touch with your feminine side


(BTW, I thought that being in touch with your feminine side meant you were just missing the mark by a little bit.) 

[richkrt99]

BTW, I thought that being in touch with your feminine's side meant you were just missing the mark by a little bit.)   AS IN....roll her over a bit more  (had to give the explanation for some of you less imaginative folks)

Fixed it...sort of

[ArJunaZ]

Time to stop sucking out there.



ETA
And no, this is not a continuation of the fudge theme.

how the puck did he type that small

[Mickstix]

Haha.  I thought I was the only old biggot here.

No bigot here, just don't need to have a "night" of it in my face.. 

[ArJunaZ]

how the puck did he type that small

I don't know, but I guess with a tool that small we'll call it fudge dipping as opposed to packing.
