What happened to DC?  Did he move back to Detroit?  (I think the internet works even in Detroit).  Maybe he will show for tonight's game vs. Detroit?

Did I lapse into a coma or did the world reverse rotational direction and I not hear about it?


Buffalo is undefeated at 5-0?
Buffalo (#2) and Detroit #3 both have better records than Tampa Bay (#4) and Toronto (#6)?
Edmonton and Calgary are the top two teams in the West?  When was the last time that happened?
St Louis is undefeated (5-0-0) and in 1st place in the Central
Montreal is 1-6  (shocked they haven't fired the coach - they have a short trigger up there)


Go Caps

this makes no sense, the fourth line are the extras?

information so far suggests Sprong scratched and Dowd in. Who knows.
I guess we find out at game time

Caps are gonna burn Lapierre’s allotted games right quick


https://novacapsfans.com/2021/10/28/capitals-t-j-oshie-out-week-to-week-with-lower-body-injury/


Yikes.  That's gonna hurt.  Oshie is the one that makes his lines go.  Not knocking SHeary or Eller, but Eller does not drive the play in the corners and work the puck out so Lappy or other can score.
I like Sheary and his play - always hustle, always tenacious, but Oshie will be missed.  Without Oshie, your third line is more like a ...third line...except your missing your best forechecker.


And week to week..... :-(

turns out Sprong was a healthy scratch last game vs Detroit, so he's available

Don't they have a 10- day DL they can put him on  (to save Cap $$$)


I think they can do it after the fact and effective from day one, but not doing it now makes me wonder to see if they are waiting to see if it is going to be longer.
I tried to look it up and all I found was it was a minimum of 7 days  :huh:


found it - IR does NOT reduce cap it, but allows the roster spot to be replaced.  Has to be Long Term IR to remove cap hit.  LTIR is minimum 10 games and 24 days (as we saw with Backy), so now we know why they have not opted for that yet.

Caps should’ve gotten a power play after Kuzy got high sticked from the Detroit bench. It’s in the rule book.

St. Luis lost last night for their 1st loss of the season (to the Avalanche)
Canes blanked the Bruins to remain undefeated
Calgary blanked Hens 4-0 (yay)

Canes and Panthers still undefeated

Calgary now 1st in the west.

After the Phoenix game, OV needs 2 goals to tie Brett Hull(741) for 4th all time. Then OV needs just 25 more to tie Jagr for 3rd. If OV has a 36 goal season he will pass Jagr for 3rd outright. Howe is in 2nd with 801, Gretzgy is 1st with 894.


also, OV currently has 596 assists, so another milestone will be reached shortly

Dowd skated this morning, based on reports I doubt he plays Monday in Tampa ...
