THERE SHE IS...MISS AMERICA...


I mean, the Thread, the Thread!!!


 




Let be first to say thank you sir.  And "what's for supper tonight grandpa?"

[alta]

I'm not cooking tonight, I got some sushi

[Mickstix]

Oh look, someone FINALLY decided to create the GDT.. A mere 5.5 hours before game time. 


Note: I had my glass clean and ice made at noon!

Lavi cutting bait with Kuzy and you are eating bait for dinner


surprised Ovi is out.  So does he have a broken toe or something?


Nice to get Spronger back in there.  He has been a pleasant late bloomer this season.  Good on him.  I think he and Sheary both have been better than expected for us this year.

Seeing he hasn't even been skating tells me he reaggravated whatever it was he hurt.. I mentioned the 1st game Kuzdipship and Co. missed that they were probably rushing him back to fill skating spots. Dumbasses. I'll be surprised if we see him in the 1st round. I "think" it was a pulled muscle and those don't just heal up in a week.

I think Alta is having pulled mussels for dinner 


No wait...it was bait.

[alta]

OV definitely pulled something, you can see it in the one shift he played on 5/3. Lavi made comments a couple games back that indicate someone broke their pinky toe blocking a shot. Must be Schultz.









funny as hell movie if you ain’t seen it

[richkrt99]

Peace out Peeps.  I miss tonight - got out of town guests.


Go Caps

Fine.. I'll drink mine + yours then. 

[justwincaps]

Gonna have to watch while I'm "working".  A sweet 3-4 goal easy win would be nice!   [What am I saying?   It's the Caps!]

[Surreylily]

Morning all.

No co ordination at all by VV.  Flopping about like a rag doll.

[Mickstix]

   

[Mickstix]

Unless his stick was between the skate and puck, he kicked it.. 

[alta]

would've been nice if they reviewed the Caps first goal that wasn't last game

Pilly got a lucky bounce on that one

Maybe, but Van was all over the place and hadn't got a clue where the puck was.  He gave them every chance.
