Once again, the lineup has been a state secret until the last minute..

I forgot to mention and it's too bad he's scratched tonight. But I liked Iorio's game Saturday night.

Is there not a second “A” on the ice tonight? I don’t see one. Oshie, then Willy usually get it.

Bloody hail, I step out for one moment and when ai come back I see The Sabers tie it up then score a goal? I can't leave the Caps alone for a minute without them getting in trouble?
-
down 1 after 1
-
And just like that it's 15-4 sog and we're behind! :clown: :poop: Lucky to get out of there only down 1. :clown: :poop:
-
:-|
-
those fly-by's behind their net just get more and more irritaing. The only purpose they serve is for their D to get set up before we give the puck away. :headbang:
-
Please dont lose to the Buffaslug jerseys :O=

is this website loading slow for everyone, or is it just me?
-
Best thing about Strome scoring is it motivates Ovi. You know he wants to lead the team in goals. :cross:
-

Yes, page 2 it went to shit.
* and now it's fine. lol

it happened about a week too, also had a problem getting nhl dot com to respond, but about 10 other websites work fine
:huh:
-
sorry folks, not losing any more sleep over this . :stirringupshit:
:yawn:
-
See ya Thursday.. 7pm
Last 20 games, need 11-8-1 to have a chance. Currently 6-5-1 L3 :-|
-
Lindy out after giving up 6 that weren’t his fault. Kuemper in with 14:20 remaining.
-
Could have used Wilson tonight. Besides the one check by Ovi, there has been zero hitting and as a result these guys are just skating circles around us.
How come all their cross-ice passes make it through, when ours are blocked every time? Hmmm.
-
Looked kinda like the D gave up in the 3rd, or they just suck that bad.
-
Can we turn in our games in hand?
-
welp, that sucked
next game is Thursday vs the Hens, which will now be a big game for a potential playoff spot
-
Law of averages gonna catch up to us. There's a reason teams with that lopsided goal differential don't make the playoffs. :-( And again, we pay out way too much in D salary to be that bad. I don't care how fast or young a team is.. If Kuemper started that game we'd of given up 9 goals, guaranteed.
-
Well the good news is my Fn DirecTV failed to record the game so got home and tuned in right when Special K was brought in...so it was all over except for licking the wounds. I missed suffering through the collapse and shitty play.
But if I had to choose...I'd rather they shit the bed vs Sabres than the Hens.
I told you they would go maybe .500 rest of the way...we are literally going to push it to the final game of the season...if we are lucky.
