Eller 1C :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:
Mick must have called the coach and threatened him with "those photos" again. :raspberry:
-
as I recall, Eller was 1C a couple times last season with all the injuries and he didn’t do too bad
-
TBH, I'd rather see Mojo centering the 1 line then Eller.. Though he did wake up last game a bit, so who knows. :cross: #Lets go Lard! :snicker:
-
Snively and Protas swapped spots. (lines in warmup)
-
Morning all

That's badly - adverb :raspberry:
sounds goofy but it is correct.

I’m confused. Are you agreeing with the statement or just playing grammar cop?
-
Hi Lil
-
I’m confused. Are you agreeing with the statement or just playing grammar cop?
Yes
-
Oh FFS drop the puck already. Some of us have bourbon to drink! :raspberry:
-
I agree and I am playing grammar "Nazi" - not cop. We have to make it politically incorrect as well as just annoying.
although in today's political society...not sure where Nazi lies compared to cop
-
Oh FFS drop the puck already. Some of us have bourbon to drink! :raspberry:
:uh-huh:
what's your bourbon? I'm still at work (which is why I'm online annoying Alta)
-
F I N A L L Y got a stream to work.
Maybe if they'd drop the puck on time....
-
welp, I just poured an American Honey, but I also have a fresh bottle of Jack to hit. Thanks for asking.
;D
-
Oof - looks like a dark filter over the camera, filming on a 1975 era camera
-
Haven't hit the Honey in a while.
My wife really likes it....but it doesn't really help her in the "hot flashes" time right now.
TMI, I know....but SHE will never see this.

it’s a pp

GOOOAAALLLLLL
OSHIE PPG
5 on 3
-
GOOOAAALLLL
MANTHA PPG
-
You have to score on the 2 man advantage...
what I said was...you have to score TWO on the man advantages.
-
Whooo Hoooo!
Oshie! :clap:
Serves them right for always picking on him.
-
Okay...got to just shut it down now....It can only go downhill from here.
-
Only the good stuff for me! Evan Williams n' Pepsi. :snicker:
They've stretched together 2 great periods of hockey.. As Rich said, it can only go down hillbilly from here. :raspberry:
-
and I retract that statement.....Alexa and the tight red thing. :uh-huh:
-
I'm outa beer and getting hungry. Heading home. Hopefully my hateful DirecTV is recording on the proper channel tonight.
-
642 set it and forget it.
-
Pepsi? I’m disappointed..
:smirk:
-
That was a dodgy call on Oshie that led to that goal. :-\
-
Pepsi? I’m disappointed..
:smirk:
I'd do coke, but they went woke.
-
Oh look, we suck again. :wackysmile:
Our PK has to be worst in the league now. :clown: :poop:
-
Joannette's Canadian, right?
:uh-huh:
-
Sens have been taking some acting lessons it seems.
-
Shoot the fucking puck Gusty!!!!!!!
-
:snicker: :snicker: :snicker: Loe it when Giriou gets mad.
-
I'd do coke, but they went woke.
I thought RC was the regional favorite
:snicker:
-
Pass, pass, pass and pass again..........
Somebody shoot the pucking fuck already. :headbang:
-
Canadian officials >:(
-
I thought RC was the regional favorite
:snicker:
:huh:
-
:bs:
-
Good move by McMichael taking someone to the box with him. Coach won't give him any ice anyway.
Feels like we'll be lucky to get a point tonight. Pretty dominant first 20 went to their head (as usual) and now we look flat. :-\
-
I'd say to hope to stay out of the box in the 3rd, but we're starting in it anyway. On a total bogus call.
-
May thinks we chirped the official at the end of the 1st. Now they're fucking with us.
-
Joanette has always been on the hate the Caps list. >:(
-
What was that? Sprog having a pop at Ovi by the bench.......
Some of these kids have no respect whatsoever.
-
Now I'm annoyed.
:angry:
-
Come on fellas!
Teach these ignorant little bastards a lesson!
-
:clown: :poop:
Their backup goalie gonna punk our #1. :)
-
:O= :O= :O=
:clown: :poop:
-
Think Mojo's shot was the 1st scoring chance we've had since the 1st period. :wackysmile:
Getting dominated. :wackysmile:
-
We look tired and slow. :(
-
Out shot 30-8 since the 1st period. :rofl: Faceoff #'s just about as bad.
-
:O= :O= :O= :O=
-
Getting old sucks kids.. See ya next time.
-
honestly it’s about what I expected
-
Who the fuck did Dylan think he was passing to? 8-0
-
the fuck was Lavi thinking keeping the goalie pulled, that was fukin stoopid
-
A poutine full of bollocks and bullshit.
See y'all soon.
:yawn:
Still not sold on Kuemper.......
-
One good period and then two periods of dogshit. They have no stamina to stay with these younger teams. Ottawa had 38 of the last 50 shots on goal. I can't see any way this team makes the playoffs.

One of the clearest and most prevalent circumstances that illustrate the principle of the "tipping point" is that of the aging sports team. It's happened over and over again in sports history.
Will this year's Capital team be another exhibit A of this principle? Stay tuned -- but early returns don't look good.
-
OOF. I fell asleep between 2nd and 3rd. (watching late) sounds like it was a good time to nap.
someone said we look tired and slow. Well, we ARE tired and slow.
I think Brown and Strome were excellent pick ups, but not enough to save a sinking ship.
Keumper is generally solid and has very decent career GAA even with some mediocre teams so pretty sure that's why they went for him. He is basically solid. He's not spectacular and not that great save kind of guy. I was not overly impressed with him in the SC run last year, but he is okay.
He's had some really bad luck with some goals this year that you can't fault him, but his 5-hole has been an issue along with some rebound control issues. Hoping he solidifies with those issues.
We rely on Mr Norris a lot and he has been doo-doo this year. We are about 4 years past the time to trade him.
Looking at our aging roster - pretty much what ALTA said - to be expected.
:yawn:
