there’s been zero updates yet on the morning skate in NYC



and just an FYI, what Giant food calls a baguette isn’t, I don’t even think it’s french



I do need to go to the liquor store, but the weather sucks

what a joke, a player slashes an official but doesn’t get in trouble because it wasn’t intentional, that and he wasn’t wearing 43.

Correct me if I’m wrong here, but isn’t high sticking called even it it’s obviously unintentional?

And Columbus has won four in a row leapfrogging Detroit for the chase for catching the Caps/Boston in last WC spot


Columbus now trails Caps by 10 points (65/55) with 30ish games to go....and 2 games in hand


Caps 65 pts   53 GP
Boston 64 pts   51 GP
Columbus 55 pts  51 GP
Detroit  52 pts   52 GP


If Columbus plays at .600 and Caps at .500 rest of the way....Columbus 92 pts, Caps 94 pts.  IF Caps continue at current .450 %...they end the season with 91 pts.

I doubt it happens, but it's much more realistic than it was a week ago.  (Happens when one teams wins ALL its games and the other does not)

Caps have won only 8 of their last 20 games, two of those wins in OT, (plus two OT/SO losses)  which is playing at .450 %  (calculated at 45% of total possible points)
Not exactly trending in the right direction

yea, but I kind of expected last night to go the way it did. This group historically shits the bed the first game back after a long break, and expecting Osh to be a game changer in his first game back is unrealistic as well. It’s going to take him a couple of games to back to game speed. When Mantha finally comes back it will take him a week to get up to speed.
