Let be first to say thank you sir. And "what's for supper tonight grandpa?"
-
I'm not cooking tonight, I got some sushi
-
Oh look, someone FINALLY decided to create the GDT.. A mere 5.5 hours before game time. ::) :raspberry:
Note: I had my glass clean and ice made at noon! :wackysmile:

Lavi cutting bait with Kuzy and you are eating bait for dinner :huh:
surprised Ovi is out. So does he have a broken toe or something?
Nice to get Spronger back in there. He has been a pleasant late bloomer this season. Good on him. I think he and Sheary both have been better than expected for us this year.
-

Seeing he hasn't even been skating tells me he reaggravated whatever it was he hurt.. I mentioned the 1st game Kuzdipship and Co. missed that they were probably rushing him back to fill skating spots. Dumbasses. I'll be surprised if we see him in the 1st round. I "think" it was a pulled muscle and those don't just heal up in a week. :-\

I think Alta is having pulled mussels for dinner :wackysmile:
No wait...it was bait.
-
OV definitely pulled something, you can see it in the one shift he played on 5/3. Lavi made comments a couple games back that indicate someone broke their pinky toe blocking a shot. Must be Schultz.

Fine.. I'll drink mine + yours then. ::)

Gonna have to watch while I'm "working". A sweet 3-4 goal easy win would be nice! [What am I saying? It's the Caps!]
-
Morning all. :wackysmile:

:clown:

No co ordination at all by VV. Flopping about like a rag doll.
-
:clown: :poop:
-
Unless his stick was between the skate and puck, he kicked it.. :clown:
-
would've been nice if they reviewed the Caps first goal that wasn't last game

Pilly got a lucky bounce on that one

Maybe, but Van was all over the place and hadn't got a clue where the puck was. He gave them every chance.
-
We're bowling ball sharp tonight! :)
-
and Carlson almost scores.. on Vtec
-
Does anyone know the reason Kuzy and Sammy are on covid protocol again? What did they do this time?

Missed a team meeting. Speculation is that they violated protocol in the process. Also speculation is that they were put on protocol as punishment, which creates cap space. (also ends their regular season though)
-
GOOOOOOAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLL
SPRONG
-
Sweet pass by Mo, shot by Sprong!
-
SPRUNG!
Excellent pass to him.

I thought it was idiotitis :snicker:

these lines don't look great

They cant put a player on protocol to punish him to save cap space.
-
Great last save.

But they did tho.. :snicker:

Let's GO CATS!

Sprong Nicky Mantha didn't look bad. But the rest were a waste of 20 minutes.
-

O-O
Damn, Im drunk and it's not even dark out.. :raspberry: :)
-
But they did tho.. :snicker:
If that's true the Caps could get fined.
-
Looked like it should of been a trip before the :clown: :poop: .. Now Orlov goes for a hook. :)
-
Caps desperately need a new goalie coach
-
I don't understand how Vanecek let's that in from that angle. Just Fricken stand up on those.
-
VV gets beat on his angles so much!
-

I think you are right. Both of our young goalies are struggling with the fundamentals.
-

He played small again. There is no way that should get by him.
-

Pretty hard to prove. Scenario: They miss a meeting, team says "we don't know where they were or if they were observing protocol".. Out of "an abundance of caution" they get put on protocol. Salary gets removed from cap space when on protocol.. Again, it's speculation, but also 2+2 type math.
-
I liked how Dillon slowly skated over while Willy and Braun were on the ice
-
that's not good
-
Shoulder on leg/knee, straight down the tunnel.. :-\ Yea, could be a quick playoffs..
And the PP is nothing more than a 2 minute breather w/o Ovi and Kuzy. Just putting Sprong or whoever in Ovi's spot seems pretty lazy. Need a more traditional PP, but I guess they can't be bothered with learning anything new..

This is hard work tonight. :yawn:
-
Getting whipped by Philly, on home ice, playing for 1st in the east.. :rofl: :clown: :poop:
-
Sheary is back so that's a bright spot
-
GOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLL
OSHIE
-
that wasn't in the mcnugget minute either
:)
-
Osh gets one back! Be cool if the rest of the team wakes up..
-

Do you not like goals scored in the Mc nugget minute.
Hey what exactly do you win if they score in the final minute?
-
So, ..... which team has secured a playoff spot and is looking to lockdown top seed and which one is out of the playoffs all together? Sure couldn't tell from our effort tonight.
-
11:00 is a long time without a whistle
-
When the Caps have scored in the Mcnugget Minute, the Caps have lost that game. People say it's the Mcnugget Minute Curse.
You use the Mcdonald's app and you get a free 6 piece chicken mcnugget order.

15 minutes into the 3rd, we've had what 2 shots on goal? :clown: Fucking dopes..

:clown: :poop:

Had to be the fastest period of the year. Nothing but running up and down the ice. Our lines look like shit. We've had way too many passengers tonight. Catch ya'll tomorrow for more excitement! :clown: :poop:
-
Frak
-
these lines sucked tonight

Bah! Humbug!
Night all. :(
