I assume Sgarbossa is wearing 23 as it is what he wore last season. Caps dot com refuses to update their roster.
A couple days ago the Rangers did send Rempe down to the AHL, they’ve recalled him for tonight’s game.
-
Much better special teams than us. And our dot #'s have dropped off. Oh, and ESPN so 50/50 40/60 I don't get Joe and Locker! :wackysmile: Can't wait.
-
Oh lawdy...ESPN?

McMike!!
-
McMike is way better on the wing than at C.
-
PP looked better. Still no dirt though.. 0 fer 17. oof.
-
I take back everything I said on the other stream about Ovi - he is on fire tonight! The only thing better so far would be if Carbury would go knockout Laviolette!
-
Sadly I think everbody is going to try to force feed Ovi for the rest of the game.
-
I take back everything I said on the other stream about Ovi - he is on fire tonight! The only thing better so far would be if Carbury would go knockout Laviolette!
I wonder if Carbs did have a chat with him...?
-

-
Bros on espn are just beside themself the Rags are gettin beat. lol
-
Caps up 3-1 after one
Caps start the 2nd on the PK
-
Big kill needed to start the 2nd. :cross:
So far, the boys look like they didn't appreciate being shut out in Tampa. "so far" :raspberry:
-
I'm happy with that first period. ;D
-

OV with the 1st intermission interview
-
Please tell me he's dressed as Michael Jackson for Halloween.......
-
McIlrath! Gotta keep him on the ice even when Roy comes back. Sandin is making a ton of mistakes tonight, so sit him when Roy comes back!
-
Please tell me he's dressed as Michael Jackson for Halloween.......
Yea, looks like the MJ Thriller outfit
-
Agree. They see (or want to see) something in Sandin. Im not sure what it's supposed to be though.
-
Yea, looks like the MJ Thriller outfit
He needs to put some cake on his shoes and invite his trousers to tea. :snicker:
-
Chychrun has not come out of the locker room to start the 2nd yet, no word yet on why.

-
daaauum
Protas almost had it
-
nother pp . . .
-
PP never scoring again. :'(
-
I have a perfect solution to our PP woes.
Every time we get a PP we need to foul to make it 4 x 4. ;)
-
Caps up 4-3 after two
-
What a great game this is turning out to be.
-
I guess just blowing em' out would take all the fun out of it? :raspberry:
Both teams playing sloppy D.. We have entirely too many shots to only be up 1. Hope they can lock it down.
-
What a great game this is turning out to be.
good back and forth, but I’d prefer the Caps not keep it this close at the end
-
I'm being slammed for enjoying a really good game of hockey. :-|
Yes, obviously as long as we win. DUH! :raspberry:
-
D injury bug sucks. Guess Alexeyev is next man up!
Had Protas converted that, it'd of been a top 3 highlight goal in Caps history. Not importance wise, but "highlight" wise. Probably 2nd only to Ovi's belly goal.

Was brutal!! Such a slamming! He actually HATES you, I bet!! :rofl: Sorry, Im drunk and it's election season.. :raspberry:

Anybody expecting the refs to get involved in the 3rd?
-
Willy been a bit quiet again tonight.

-

Oh yea, he was on his under belly wadn't he! :wackysmile:
I've warned of an 0-fer PP.. When's it gonna start costing us points? :-\
-
It's not as if we're not trying.
-
McMike is having one hell of a game
-
Caps are looking good tonight. But I don’t think 4 is going to win it.
-
i'm not going to jinx it tonight. :cross:
-
Here we go..............

Where's Ovi?

GOOOAAALLLL

Good game! Pay the gypsy to help the PP, please!
Thursday at 7pm!!
-
:)
-
Our goalie battle continues.....
Ovi turns up. Twice.
What a fun and exciting game to watch from beginning to end. Chalk and cheese to the last game. I really liked the way we played this game.
Sweet dreams peeps. :hearts: :yawn:
-

Me either, but what other option do we have? :raised-eyebrow: :snicker:

Chalk and cheese :huh:
-
Who spiked Ovie's prune juice? :snicker: Overall, a nice effort and an entertaining game. Besides Ovie, I thought McMichael, Protis and Dowd in particular had very good games. The only downsides were the PP (as usual) and the fact that we let NY score within a minute or less twice after we had scored. Still, 6-2 is a nice surprise. Hopefully, Chichruyn isn't too banged up.
