Suppose we'll find out if the better teams just been overlooking us (ie: trap games) or if we're serious. :cross: Saw we still only have like a 6% chance of the loffs, but I guess until it's over, it's not over.
-
Milano out - flu, Protas in
OV is a game time decision, Kuemper in net
-
So "maintenance day" was for an actual injury of some sort. :-( No way to get a maximum win w/o an Ovi goal. Hope he can go! :cross:
-
update, OV out, Snively in. I can’t wait to see what Lavi does with this ::)
-
Good for Snively. :'( My guess is he'll just move everyone up a line, from what you have posted above.
-
Sheary, Mantha, Snively, Protas on the left side.. Not sure what makes Sheary the top LW, but here we are! :wackysmile:
-
Joe B and Lacher have the radio call tonight, this gonna put me about 35 seconds behind the live video
-
:O=
:clown: :poop:
-
WhooBoy do we look good tonight! 0 shots on goal, about 30 seconds total zone time, down 1(could be 2 or 3) half way through the period! :)
-
Aube! Showin a little life here!
-
GOOOAAALLLL
AUBÉ-KUBEL
-
Oh well, short lived. :clown: :poop:
-
:clown: :poop:
:O= :O=
-
Alexeyev got abused and Nicky was a mile behind the play. :)
-
Ballgame. :clown: :poop:

:poop: :poop: :poop:

it feels like this should be the 3rd, not the 1st
-
Can't take getting a beating and listening to the NY homers at the same time. Tuned into Caps Radio 24/7 and it's a podcast or something, talking about the Caps. No JoeB/Locker? Is it just because it's intermission or am I in the wrong place?
-
I haven’t used the caps radio app in years because of things like that. You should be able to get 106.7 over the interwebs, but I’d go directly to the station website, their app is worse than the caps.
-
Morning chaps :wackysmile: Not looking great so far.
-
They went to JoeB and Lock before the period started. Didn't help. :raspberry:
Getting WAY outclassed tonight. More passes in skates, whiffs and slow skates then a weekday night Beer League.
-
GOOOAAALLLL
IRWIN
-
Morning chaps :wackysmile: Not looking great so far.
Still a lot hockey left, but it doesn’t look great.
-
:banana: :banana:
-
That was a minor improvement over the 1st..
-
Willy is hilarious. :lmao: The third is going to be interesting.
-
Yea, little life shown. Too little too late though. Rags probably idling along waiting to see if they need to turn it up again or not. Probably not.
-
Caps Radio is hillarious. Have to keep refreshing every 10 minutes or so cause they keep wanting me to go "premium". One time it's behind the game, next it's synced perfect, next ahead.. :clown:
-
GOOOAAALLLL
DOWD
-
Yeah baby!
:banana: :banana: :banana:
-
Dowder makes it interesting.
Good thing these guys play soccer before the games. Every other pass is into someones skates.
-
fuck this coach
-
2:20 to play, we pull Kuemper. I said good, it'll be over with 2 minutes to play. Only took 9 seconds. :rofl:
-
More horror to be viewed tomorrow at 7pm!! :)
-
See ya then.
:yawn:
-
:-(
-
Had to come back and post the title of the year I just saw.. "The Washedington Capitals" :snicker:
-
You know when you only get goals from your snipers, its hard to win....
A-K
Irwin
Dowd
Buffalo scouting this game and quaking in their boots....more like licking their chops for their next win.
And I think I actually quoted some games back when both A-K and Irwin scored in the same game - you'd NEVER see that again.
Looked it up (it was easy since Irwin scores so often)
Irwin has a total of TWO goals this year - the previous was Mar 4 vs SJS
A-K has four goals on the year - previous was indeed Mar 4 vs SJS
