Sprong took OVs spot for morning skate, but sounds like he's still a game time decision.
If OV misses the game due to injury, it will only be the 18th game of his career missed because of such

Starting lineups for a 7pm game must be submitted by 5pm. Only in this town do we have to wait until 6:58 to get them verified.
Damn, I was off by about 20 minutes. Confirmed at 6:38, no OV tonight.

Chara is playing in his 1600th game tonight

Well shit, no shutout for Sammy..

cheap ass hooking call, but these guys know that's going to get called just about every time
-
Pretty decent first, I thought.

It looked like his stick caught in his hands. It wasn't much of a hook that's for sure. He only had one hand on his stick.

Let’s try this again...
When was the last time ....Dowd scored? :angel:
-
I just tuned in on the Caps radio app.
Go Caps
Did they say anything about Ovi?
Upper or lower body?
-
looked more like interference than tripping
-
what a fukin joke
-
Nice. :clown: :poop:
-
Oh good grief. :O=
-
So Sammy just missed it?

So Sammy just missed it?
That's what it looked like. Even if that's deflected that's one he should have.
-
Great fucking job. Assholes.

Blow 2-0 at NYI. Will be an L.

I'm not sure they said, but watching the replay where he pulled up last game its obviously lower body
-
Sammy isn't going to win #1 when giving those up
-
Special team units having quite a game! :wackysmile: Yea, Sammy whiffed. Wants it back Im sure.
-
Great fucking job. Assholes.
I don't understand the mass line change when they didn't have control of the puck
-
Sammy isn't going to win #1 when giving those up
But he is still outplaying Vanecek in recent games. Hopefully he doesn't let in anymore like that.
-

I heard it was lower body.
-

I agree that was an odd line change.

-
Fart noises.. :clown: :poop: They're getting some puck luck tonight..
-
There was a trip on them after the hold. Should have been 4 v 4.

Maybe the whistle blew before the trip. Otherwise I agree it should have been a trip.
-
When was the last time....
Spronger scored
Oh wait...too late.
When was the last time ....
The Caps scored 2 goals in all three periods of a game ?
-

I couldn’t hear but we hadn’t touched up so no whistle should have blown.
-
it looked like the whistle was blown because of the trip, but that's not what got called
-

I watched the replay. The trip was before the whistle and before we touched the puck. It could have and should have been called.

KUUUUUUZY
GOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAALLLLLL
-
Snipe!
-
Kuzy woken up recently! That was purdy. :uh-huh:
-
Hens won putting them in 1st place for the moment
Sounds like Caps are working to correct that
-
Nice goal for Kuzy. Sorokin not having a good game.
-
When was the last time all four of Caps lines scored in same game?
-
PRONGER SNIPER
one more off the face off

PRONGER SNIPER
one more off the face off
He has a good shot and quick release. His shot reminds me a bit of Semins shot
-
damn good game from the Caps tonight, except for the PP and PK
-
Nice low drama win on the Island! So that was 2 in a row for Sammy. Guess Tuesday tells us if he's won the full time job..
-

I thought the 2 goals the Isles scored on the PP were lucky bounces for them.
The shorty we gave up was a softy by Samsonov combined with an unusual line change. I guess they figured there was going to be any kind of scoring chance. And there shouldn't have been.

I'm not sure who they should go with on Tuesday. I'm liking Sammys game better even though he did let in a soft one.
I'm guessing they will go with Vanecek.

It was tough staying awake tonight, but I'm glad I did.
Sweet dreams peeps. :yawn: :yawn: :yawn:

Hope things are going to be ok for all of you guys.
