OV has 1499 career points.. still.
Tonight will be Kuzy’s 700th career game.
Milano is a healthy scratch.
Lindy in net.
-
Oh Hell. 8pm start. Nationally televised? We ALWAYS do well in those.
F a bunch of ESPN and 8pm start
-
Oh kewl, ESPN.. Looks like I don't get the pregame show tonight. :-( And if I had to guess, the games in DC, so we'll get some Dallas homers doing the call? :wackysmile:
-
We just went from 10:30 to 9:00, 8:00 seems reasonable before getting back to 7:00. You gotta ease into the readjustment or you end up with the runs.
:snicker:
-
Kuzy been talkin all kinds of shit since the scratch. Really hope he backs it up with something more than an extra stick penalty.

Lets hope friggin so Kuzy, but you know....31 years old is a bit old to have to be told to sit in time out.
-
I cant get any of the streams to work
-
Morning chaps. :wackysmile:
-
I cant get any of the streams to work
3rd one down is working for me... for now... ;)

GOOOAAALLLL
PROTAS

:banana:
WE GOT A GOAL!
-
PP…
-
Uh oh.
-
we wil never score on the PP again
-
pfff ovi. Phillips looks like a little kid in the middle
-
Phillips must work his ass off in practice. Im surprised he's our next man up
-
I liked that PP better than most. Bummer is, that loose puck in the slot with Phillips. That's were Backy would of put a backhand on Ovi's wide open blade. We lack in high skills.
-
I think it might happen tonight....
-
:poop:
:clown: :O=
-
I'm shocked a skill guy put one upstairs on Lindy :-|
-
Left him wide open. Burried. Shocked. :clown: :poop:
-
On the monumental channel, the Caps are Playing the Hens, game 6 round 2 2018
-
1 to 1 after one
-
We look like we're actually trying to score tonight. :uh-huh:
I see a bit of hustle.

Hah...i was watching round 1 last week. I havent qued up Round 2
Shocking how much faster Ovi, Backy and Oshie were a mere 4-1/2 years ago

:O= :O=
:clown: :poop:
-
Kuzy hit the post
-
I'm liking our energy this game. Passing's a bit sloppy tho
-
the passing looks much better than the last two games
-
Up by 1 after two. Keep skatin boys.
-
not a bad 2nd period from the Caps
-
the passing looks much better than the last two games
Difference is once they lost it, this game they're fighting to get it back.
-
Nice, goin on the PK. :-\
-
:lmao:

And they got a nice bounce. :poop: :poop: :poop:
-
PP…
-
GOOOAAALLL
STROME
PPG
-
That’s Strome’s 100th career goal
OV gets the secondary assist, now has 1500 career points
8th player to do so with one team
-
:banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:
-
Not much to do with the PP but we'll gladly accept it!
Now we gotta finish.. Can't just be chipping the puck out, icing and hoping for the best. Finish!!!!

-
Fuck. :poop: :poop: :poop: :poop:
Miss at one end, the other end scores. Every fucking time.
-
there’s a game saver from Lindy
-
Is Ovechkin ever gonna score another goal in his fn life?
-
In Gretzgy’s final NHL season with the Rags, he played 70 games and had 9 goals.
-
phukin extra minutes
-
On life support, but made to the end of regulation.
-
:yawn:
Matchsticks in the eyes time.
-
Carlson starts in OT
:huh:
:O=
-
On life support, but made to the end of regulation.
Same here. :snicker:
-
In Gretzgy’s final NHL season with the Rags, he played 70 games and had 9 goals.
WOW!
-
Caps get an OT PP..
-
phukin SO..
-
Jesus fuck Ovi is useless. :'(
-
:(
-
Time for a healthy scratch for Ovi.
Lucky we got a single fucking point. >:(
-
Meh! We got a point.
Can't believe Ovi was the third shootout. ::)
Still, we played much better tonight. Not hard I know, but some good things.
Night all.
-
Lost the lead 3 fucking times. :rofl:
Shit isn't real. Ovi needs to retire. He got his 1500 pts.
See ya for another :poop: show Saturday night..
-
At least Kuzy looked good. He actually skated with energy and played really well. Maybe scratch him every tenth game to keep him going.
I'm done with the Phillips thing. These smurf guys never work out in the long run. There are bunch of guys in Hershey that deserve a callup.
I'm also loving McMike and Laperierre is looking good as well - good skater and seems to be getting more confident.
-
Yea, Phillips experiment should be done. Love his game but he's just too small. If you're small you have to be lightning on skates and he's not that.
-
Well I wouldn't call it a shit show, but an actual win would be nice.
Kuzy actually playing is a plus
PP scored, so now I'm sure the floodgates will now open up for our PP :smirk:
Phillips experiment should be done....
Fukin shootout....
The Ovi shootout experiment sure as shit should be done. I get it, he's the captain and you want him to score and break the funk, but when you need it...He's not my first choice....or second...or third...or fourth.
Im okay with Kuzy in SO, and even Strome (shocked he's 0 for 7), but FFS....Mcmike, Willy, Lapierre, Milano, strength coach, equipment guy, water boy...ALL should have a go before Ovi.
-
OV hasn’t been an effective shootout scorer in 10 years. Lavi rarely put him out for one.
