The Thread, the thread!
Even Mick and Rich are careless and know the game is so inconsequential that neither of them ragged about when the tread was posted :snicker:

I saw that and wondered how they will suit up enough bodies to man a team. I guess if you move everyone off the taxi and bring up a bunch of AHL guys...
Too bad the Caps can't do the same. All these (hopefully) minor injuries being nursed could use an extra couple days off. I think playing Ovi is silly unless they just want to get him some real game ice time. Not like he's playing for any type of record or points or goals or anything.
Sure hope Vitek gets his game on. He had a streak earlier in the year where he was really good. Lately he's been fine, but not....really good. Not sure what's happening with Sammy at this point. Someone posted a couple games ago Caps need a new goalie coach and I think I agree. Vitek has the skills, but most of what's wrong with his game is fundamentals I think. Like when he gets to low and leaves the top 6" of net open - or when he's completely out of position way to often. Those things could be fixed.

BTW - Dillon, Dowd, Hathy, Hags are the only 4 Caps who have played all 55 games so far this season. I would expect to see all four of them tonight. That's good on Hags - hasn't he had injury problems in the past? He's not exactly a big physical guy. (Now If only he could score on a breakaway)
Boston - only Ritchie has played 55 games this year.
I looked at several teams and 2-4 seems about average
