-
Shut em' out through 6 shots anyway. :clown: :poop:
Mornin' Lil!

2 on 10 shots. :clown: :poop:

Another Special K special. :stupid:
What does it take for the suits to finally realise, that dog don't hunt! :headbang:
-
GOOOAAALLLL
ALEXEYEV
-
Got 1 back! Alexeyev with the seeing eye shot!
-
:banana:
-
if NHL scoring counts that as Alexeyev’s, it will be his first NHL goal
-
Yay, Willy! 8)

PP …
-
Another Horse :poop: PP.
-
Ovi isnt even trying to shoot the puck on the pp any more. :-(
-
could be worse, that zebra huddle after the fight was looking like they were going to screw the Caps.. again
-
If there were still only 30 teams in the league, our pppp would still be 32nd. That's how bad it is.

:lol: Same here. Yet it was Buffy got the extra two. 8-0

That Greenway feller is the same kid we watched in the Seoul Olympics and liked his grit.
-
Yea, I need Ovi to be a little more greedy. Especially on the PP. All they do is back up, trying to get a pass to him. We have no attack in our PP. :-(

From what I've noticed, Ovi doesn't seem to be considered a threat any more, especially from his "office". He's too slow now. Whereas before, he used to have two defenders on him as soon as he got the puck, now he's treated as just another guy.
Not so very long ago, if Ovi took a shot, it was in the back of the net before you could even blink. Now you can actually track the puck when he shoots it.

I think that is because of the other four guys on the ice with him. The rest of the league learned years ago that Carlson can’t handle a hard forecheck.

GOOOAAALLLL
OSHIE

Osh dog!!! Finally!!

Sadly, I don't think that's the reason. It took Dylan a couple of years to learn to feed Ovi after Greeny left, but he did learn and they were pretty successful.
Ovi's lost the strength and speed in his wrists and his willingness to shoot the puck. His heart doesnt seem to be in it any more.
He's lost that spark, that fight that made him GREAT.

What are the odds one of our kiddies is going to have a hissy fit and take a shot on goal, maybe?
