It’s on the secondary channel tonight.
-
Joy. Another 7:30pm start.
-
Morning chaps.
:wackysmile:
-
Ethan Bear.. he’s listed as cleared injury but also “registration pending”. I don’t know if he’s technically a scratch tonight, technically still on IR, or unavailable as player per NHL.
-
phooking hell.. Lindgren just went to the locker room
Kuemper in net
-
:poop:
-
Uh oh...
-
and no trip called on Fever by the four blind mice
-
Fever has not returned to the ice since that play
-
Not looking great so far.
-
Is it just me or has hockey in general become pretty boring. No checking, lackadaisical effort, nobody seems fired up any more. They actually go out of their way to avoid bumping each other. I know the days of scrums and fighting are over, but it has just gotten BORING! Maybe I need to watch some good teams for a while.
-
Playin with fire most of that one. Fever won't return. Did they say anything about Chucky? I had to watch the Isles channel for a few minutes.
-
I have not heard anything about Lindy, I assume it’s related to that shot he blocked with his neck
-
Lindy will not return, upper body
the emergency backup goalie is in the Caps locker room
-
piss poor passing leads to an Islanders goal
-
:clown: :poop: :clown: :poop:
:O= :O=
-
Started with Kuzy shit pass and then lazy getting back.
And then another.. We might come back from 1 down. Rarely 2. :clown: :poop:
-
Kuzy had one or two decent games after he was benched and since then he has been back to gliding around the ice. Time to bench him for about 3 games.
-
lackadaisical crap
-
Shutout incoming. :'(
-
0-2 after 2, down a goalie and a dman
-
Im finding this hard work. :yawn:
-
I'd love to argue with ya Lil, but I got nothin'.
-
Im finding this hard work. :yawn:
I got music on louder than the hockey game and I’m reading other things

Samsonov gave up 6 on 20 shots tonight for the Leafs.

We've surrendered 10 unanswered goals. :wackysmile:

Aubé-Kubel
-
Caps vs Isles went 2 wins each on the season, which isn’t hateful. But tonight was fugly.
-
haha! Fuck you Sorokin!! :raspberry:
Whatever. More horror to be had tomorrow night! Don't miss it! 7pm..
-

:-|
-
How bout them apples! :sick:

-
that makes the Bear question easier for the foreseeable future, and maybe Shepherd will earn another shutout or two
-
How bout them apples! :sick:
yea, it was something about putting Kuzy on waivers
-
Are you Jack? :huh: lol
Hearing it could be Chucky's back.. :poop: :poop: :poop:
-
<<< he was Jack
🤐
-
I'll have to keep an eye out! :P
-
Clear the decks and get the rebuild going right now. This is too revolting to watch. All the vets outside of Wilson have to go. Ovie, please retire.
-
Man oh man. Had to work last night so I watched the replay. Thank God I didn’t have that steaming pile of turd on in the background at work - I might’ve gone postal. That was a hot mess.
Outscored 10-2 in the two games since the break, and now we get to go to Nashville to watch Marty Erat, uhm, er, I mean Philip Forsberg stick it to us and remind us of the worst trade deadline deal of all time.
Keep Wilson, McM, Fever, Protas, Strome, Miro, and Lindgren…. Everyone else is up for trade except Ovie - who needs to either find his game or retire with grace.
