last night was an improvement as the guys showed they can still score, now they gotta show they still remember how to defend
I just heard the lines on the radio, it appears they have changed
BTW, they said Orpik was out because of a planned day off for him.
I think the radio pregame is more informative than the tv pregame, they have more time to talk because they aren’t doing video replays
Holtby got something to prove tonight, you think?
Holy Crap. I thought the game was tomorrow.Go hug a tree. Make sure it's a Merican tree though and it;s got a gun... Ya know, to shoot us all not Mericans.,,,,,,,,,, :raspberry:
Not sure if I can take it back to back. (Like the Capitals keep taking it in the back...side...er ... um... 8-0
Go Caps
Keystone cops rule! Take out Ove!!! ::)
DSP no goals in 24.
And DSP just missed a wide open net! (Ō_ƆŎ) :O=
Didn't expect that.... :lol:
And THAT ladies and gentlemen is why we suck!
Us to score first. :P And for Backus to actually do it.
Expect what, Lil? Us to fuck up?
HOLTBUM !!!
Us to score first. :P
He was slow covering but rewind and look at the D loafing. Eller cruising and never cleared the crease. Kempny let them get a puck down low that he needs to have.
I saw the whole thing. Holtby was sleeping.
I am at least grateful NBC kept McHugh, Milbury, Jones, "Penis" McGuire, Emrick , Olczyk, & Roenick away from this broadcast.
Agreed, but he wasn’t alone.
You do realise I'm usually a little bit behind you guys?
Gotcha. We are god awful.
You do realise I'm usually a little bit behind you guys?
I see us score a goal and post Yay and then see a BOO in a post just before....... :wackysmile: I'm on a delay here, so just take a breath before you annihilate me.

If it weren’t for that crap goal at the end I’d have said that was a great road period.Agree scored. FACT" ed. Better period than we've seen for a while.
:'( Sorry. If the Caps would learn to score and not give one up 30 seconds later then we'd be OK.No kidding!
Agree scored. FACT" ed. Better period than we've seen for a while.
As for the other matter ... You KNOW I'm a Caps fan, right. You DO by now surely??? If I sy YAY, or something similar, it's not because the other team scored. ::)
Holy shit, it's been 2+ minutes since we scored and they've not given one up yet!!! :clap:
Dude! I feel your pain. I do. I think many others on here do too. But we have to have some fun also.
Because nobody is EVER sarcastic on this board?!
Holy shit, it's been 2+ minutes since we scored and they've not given one up yet!!! :clap:BREATHE BABY .... BREATHE........ :praying:
Kadri, not on my like list.
Seigenthaler with the stop !!!!!That was good.
he hasn't been on Caps fans like list in years, Google Kadri OV knee on knee
Passing looks good tonight.
DSP needs a goal.DSP needs some wood.. Like on the bench.

Great stop by Ziggy!!! :clap:Greaat nickname.
Enlighten me? :wackysmile:
He's been thinking of food lately.

Ah. I see, said the blind man to the deaf dog........
Poor joke attempt at his conditioning routine, he was struggling with it.
Great hockey this period, from both teams. A few farts, but damn better than the recent efforts.SSSHHHH . It ain't over yet........
seems pretty innocent ?? seems like a bullshit callDoh! These penalties have to stop. ANNNNDD they score. FFS!
Can we all agree this team fucking stinks. How many failed clears can you have? Fucking losers
Lil, what time is it there?
Lil, what time is it there?As I type ths11 it's 0 2 11
The only value this team has right now is comic value.
As I type ths11 it's 0 2 11

It's hard work being a Caps fan. ;)
I keep forgetting its plus 5

Time to hit the hooch. Guess I'll stick for the 3rd since they don't play again for 10 days.. Fuck it, nothing we can do about it, hope they snap out of it, catch a break, get lucky, whatever it takes. Maybe they can steal a point. :angel:We are honoured by your presence. 8)
Our guys often know what to do, but for some reason they've been unable to execute even the simplest of things, especially things like clearing the puck . . OVER and OVER and OVER again they miss wide open chances to clear. These mistakes make no sense to me.These are people who could by a very nice house for me with ine weeks wages, You'd think they could appreciate it, huh?
Holts is a sieve.What???
Holtby is not in that 70 uniform. That can't be him! HE hasn't stopped much of anything when it mattered.

Holeby having another great game! :raspberry:He was good earlier.... .. ....
I think that dude from the geico commercial is still in that sweater
You buggets!!! Or not :raspberry: :P (Ō_ƆŎ) ot. How far behind am I now? ??? :huh:

Holtby getting the coaching equivalent of a spankin.. Can't think of any other reason he's still in goal tonight.We need to get the whisperer back in. .... Soon.

You can't be as far behind as this team is from another Cup.I hear ya. :crying:
Let's see -- it's just about the right time for all the Washington apologists to start in with the "they've played too much hockey -- they are just dead tired" crap. Let's see what Rierdon says tonight -- "we really need this break -- we played so much more hockey than the other teams and we've had a demanding schedule. That winning the Cup really sucks.":huh:
Peace out all. Hope you have a good break. We'll see what the first game after the break looks like. If it doesn't look a whole hell of a lot better than the last 7 we are gonna have a VERY long spring (and I don't mean by playing into the warmer weather).
Ok peeps, catch ya'll next time!Sorry Micky. :'(
Shooting Gallery is touring the Fiocci plant on the outdoor channel
Last point before the All-Star break. Thank God the Caps won the Cup last year. We have the good fortune to watch the greatest goal scorer of our generation, and perhaps all time, day in and day out and it would have been an absolute shame for him to never have had the chance to skate the Cup. I think from what we are seeing right now that last year was the year and it's not gonna happen again in his career. I'm just glad for the guy and for his place in hockey history that he got one last year. As painful as this current iteration is to watch, they can't take last year away from Ovi or from us.
Sorry Mickey. :'(
One point I'd like to mention.
The refs,
They were actually pretty good this game. ( Compared to to the general standard. )
Hopefully they give up less than 7 tonight.
Only 6 tonight. Good job boys.
Oh, come on. ... As oppposed to the many that we usually get, every game, by certain refs. Real or imaginary. This was a pretty decently reffed game. IMHO. And as you know, I'm prety hard on the refs. Unless they do it right. Which is very rare. These refs didn't seem biased, imho. Unlike many. These refs didn't seemto want to control the outcone of the game.
meh, that was a weak cross check call on OV that gave the Leafs a PPG
So, if it isn’t obvious to Reirden to bench DSP then I am on the bandwagon to fire him. Just watch DSP’s lack of effort on the first goal against and his crappy play all night.He is now called "Ziggy" apparantly.... :wackysmile:
Next, I think Boyd got exposed tonight. On the other hand, I thought Seigenthaler played well and even had the best save of the night.

I can understand Maco getting a ban butnot 4caps.
I would argue that call on OV did control the game. It gave the Leafs the momentum and the Caps never really got it back
So, 4Caps is MIA.. Hope he's ok! What is the verdict on OldHat?? Hope he's good too..Conversed with Hat a little before Christmas and he was fine, just really busy. ;)
About last nights game...This kinda says it all
Thought we played pretty good two periods. THen it was over. The PP goal on Ovi's questionable call ended it.
Why did Holtby start? Back to back after playing like shit? Maybe something up with Copely? Maybe just the match up?
Ovi...DAMN dude. Nice shot. He really is playing well. Sure wish it would rub off on his team mates.
Ziggy looked pretty good last night
Carlson look like garbage (sorry Maaco)
Holtby look like a hot mess
Would you investigate please: :praying:
4Caps !!!
where have you been hiding? We miss your insight
