Hi chaps.    :wackysmile:

This poor old laptop is knackered.  I spilled tea on it and now i have no sound.  I can see the game, I ust an't hear it.  Also some keys don't work properly!    :-|

I have a new contraption.  A Lenovo, but of course I've picked up 3 viruses already, trying to stream the game.   :clap:   So I've shut it down for now.
Ho hum.

Good to see ya Lil! Bummer about the technology devices.  :raspberry:


Our PP is PP.. I'd rather see McMichael out there instead of Mantha, tbh.. Or Wilson. 2nd unit should just send out Haglin, Dowd and Hath and hope for no shorties..  :clown:

Hey, double  :clown: :poop: 


Amazing how easily other teams pressure our PP unit and take/clear the puck.. Meanwhile, we try and pressure and they can keep/control the puck no problem.  :-\

Shocked Wilson is even on the bench still. Knee looked hyperextended to me.

You sure you have the sound for the game "on"? If you're using the NHL66 link, I "think" the sound is muted by default?

Oh well.  We got a point.  Pretty good comeback after that awful first.

Look at it this way:  With half of Backstrom's minimum 10-game absence past, the Caps have amassed 8 out of a possible 10 standings points.

Good perspective. 

Considering who we have played, though allowing for a majority of home games, if you told me before the first puck drop that we wouldn't have Backy for those games but that we'd get 8 out of 10 possible points, I'd have taken that in a skinny minute.
