McMichael did not stay on the ice after practice for extra work

[Mickstix]

I don't think many were on the ice at all this morning. Read it was a "very optional" skate. Hope he gets a spot though, but not holding my breath.

Breathe! Mick, breathe!

[richkrt99]

Hope Sammy can find his crease tonight.


Ovi is due for a goal.


Go Caps!

Hathy out, McMichael in. I have no idea what the lines are yet.


I don’t understand why this franchise can’t do a pregame show on the tv when the game is on nationally

[Mickstix]

Well, now we know for a fact, either Hathy is hurt or our coach smokes crack..    If he's a healthy scratch I may have to stop watching these games live. DVR and 4x FF was made for bad hockey. 

[Mickstix]

They wouldn't, why would they, they can't, those are.. Is puck drop not for another 20-30 minutes?? 

[alta]

apparently Hathy has a non wuhan bug

[Mickstix]

That explains Hathy.. Still not sure what's up with the green jerseys at 7:35pm.. Games only listed till 10pm, so apparently they're supposed to be dropping the puck.. 5 minutes ago. 

[Mickstix]

Marty the Party!!!

[richkrt99]

My live stream is 30 seconds behind the TNT broadcast


Go Dr. Johnny Fever!

[richkrt99]

Mantha has better wheels than I had given him credit for.

[richkrt99]

Boom Johnny Q

[richkrt99]

For fucks sake I never seen such mambi pambi bullshit non clearing in my life

[richkrt99]

We had 20 chances to get that out.

[richkrt99]

What is Sammy doing there?

[richkrt99]

And that has to be goalie interference even if it wasn't a hand pass.
He fucking laying on the goalies feet

[richkrt99]

I think we're alone now....Tiffany

[Mickstix]

Goalie looses his stick for the 400th time in 50 games.. Larsson with a shit clear attempt.. 2-1
