Not sure what the Eller's are dealing with at home, but 2 games missed can't be good. Hope all is ok.. :praying:

I'm still having a tough time with this suspension. I feel the same way on this. Thinking that Wilson was suspended for an unspendable hit.
OK now I'm pissed off again. It could be the 10 beer talking though.
-
We're gonna need a couple more this period, before the inevitable collapse in the 3rd. :snicker:
-
Jensen!!!!!
-
Meh. Pretty much knew it wouldn't be a shut out.
-
Bad play by Sprong.
-
Oooooohhhhh!
Jenny!
Purdy. ;)

The Flyers are having goaltender issues this year.

The Flyers are having goaltender issues this year.
So are we.
-
So are we.
Not near as bad as Philly.
Our problem has been more defensively. More specifically our forwards.
Vrana make a weak attempt on that 2nd goal. He is by far our worst defensive player, even worse than Kuzy. It's no wonder he is getting in the doghouse every 2nd game.
-
Pilly is puttin up a fight tonight, they are in must win territory
-
best way to kill a penalty
-
OV PPG!!!!
-
WHOOOOOOP WHOOOOOOPPP!!!!!
:laughing:
-
Uh oh. Chara's got the 'ump............ :snicker:
-
It must be a massive culture shock for the big Z from being an NHL darling, to now experiencing what it's llike to be a Cap. :raspberry:
-
Not sure that 4 is going to be enough......

Oshieis due.

I saw the listing for it probably two years ago, it’s been tied up and unused that whole time in Tampa. I bet you could talk easily talk them down to $3,000,000 as it’s going to need work. If I had had the funds I be talking to someone about it, and not as a business either.

There's 1.. And 2.. :clown: :poop:
-
This team is a fucking joke the way they just stop playing.
-
My hand is clutched on the zip............
-
Lil was right.. 4 wasn't enough. :wtf: They have to be the worst with multi goal leads. Even if the W/L column doesn't support it, they give up way too many goals playing with a lead.
-
cheesus man, shouldn’t have been that difficult
-
Bettman’s mandate - thou shalt keep games close.
-
Caps win 5-4
-
Escaped another 3 goal 3rd period lead. :clown: :poop: They've gotta figure that shit out..
-
That was brutal, even though we won.
We don't half make this hard work! :omg:
-
I thought Sammy played pretty well, early on. I didnt want to comment on it, 'cos I didn't want to jinx him..........
:phew:
:lmao:
-
There's not been much Coach bashing so far this season. I must admit, I do like the way Lavi has been so far.
-
Sweet dreams all. :yawn:
:hearts:
-
Holy cow. How do we make it this close. Caps get goals from Hags and Dowd.
That’s a game you got to win
I thought Sammy looked good. Even though it was 4 goals...he looked more confident and technically better
-

I'm still on the fence with our coach. I've liked some things he has done but disliked other things.
Still not sure if I like our system. To me it looks like the D core has picked up the system but some of the forwards have not. In this system the defenceman are very active and step up in all 3 zones which means the forwards have to cover for the D men.
