WARNING!
Trap Game is Nigh!
Wakeup! Show up!
Play it like you NEED it!
WARNING!
-
In the after practice presser this morning, coach said same lines as last game, but Thompson in net. Skate Shavings at Caps dot com says otherwise. ::)
Milano has been skating the last couple days, but coach says he’s still a ways out.
It appears the team is rotating who wears the 3rd “A”. Since no one cares to report on it we will have to wait until game time to see who gets it tonight.
-
PP time
-
Hillbilly speaking truth.. Has Trap Game written all over it. :(
-
God dammit Lil, WAKE UP!!!
We have a fucking Trap Game warning!!! :raised-eyebrow:

Slashing calls are ridiculous at this point. You touch a guys gloves or even get close and its slashing. You can whack the back of a hockey glove as hard as you want and hardly feel it through the glove.
Taking one between the glove and elbow pad on the forearm hurts like a bugger, but a tap on the back of the hand is meaningless.
And I'm also annoyed at the tendency for guys to fake like it hurts to draw a penalty....THIS AINT FUCKING SOCCER AND WE DONT WANT IT TO BE! All the old school hockey guys must be rolling in their graves when they see this soccer on ice bullshit
-
Oh wait. I forgot. It's gay pride night. Brings a whole new meaning to stick fouls :raspberry:
-
Cmon Raddish....open net brother! Maybe should have played Turnip instead?
-
:yawn: Ta Mickey.
FINALLY!!!! :raspberry: :hearts:
And she spelled my name right! :wackysmile:

This is why slashing is called the way it is…

yeah, catch one on the end of the finger, it gets you, and Im not asking for free reign to hack away, but a tap on the glove is...a tap on the glove
-
Caps down 1-0 after one.. 0 fer 2 on the pp

I don’t disagree, just pointing out why it is what it is
phukin crosby..
as I recall the shitsburgh crier was very unapologetic about it, at least publicly. He said something to the effect it happens to him all the time, yet his hands aren’t mangled.
-
That's a softy by Logan there. FFS the Caps kryptonite this year is the last minute of a period.
Honestly, I'm expecting nothing but disappointment from this game, so...there's still hope my expectations will be unfulfilled.

We woke up anyway.. (See what I did there Hillbilly?) :raspberry: :rofl: Just gotta beat Patrick Fn Roy :goalie: :raised-eyebrow:

The hillbilly culture did originate in Scotland, maybe she found a better hillbilly

One word to describe what's needed: onesie (wait...is that one word?)

either that or buck Necked. either works
welll...buck necked works better, but each his own
-
PPG coming. Wait for it...
-
Nice puck nab!
-

only counts in horseshoes and hand grenadines
-
Hey Rey...what you say?

It is now. It will end in a bloodbath with the Caps scoring 4+ (wait for it...)
-
The Caps lead the entire league in goals scored, 101 after 24 games. It’s been a few years since we’ve seen that.
-
I gotta pee
-
GOOOAAALLLL
DOWD
-
oooookkaaaaay.. lets do it again...
I gotta pee
-
TG the good guys needed that.
-
Glad Dowder got one!
We look a step off on everything. Passing, shooting..
-
McMichael is maturing nicely
-
game tied 1-1 after two
-
McMichael is maturing nicely
Well....wish we could say the same for Mick, but... :raspberry:
-
McMike hasn't been able to elevate the puck for 2 weeks now. Looks like last year. Lots of chances, little twine.
Me, mature? Never! :raised-eyebrow:
-
What do you guys think about Miro? He had a nice kick assist on the goal. It seems to me that he is not quite ready physically. He gives a good effort though. I think he will probably mature to be an average player, but not a star.

Hmmm...I think he will do better than average. but...what's average?
I don't expect he will be the next Ovi, but he will be a better scorer than.... Dowd.
Of course...could be my Capsfan unrealistic hope shining through there...
-
okay, heading home after 13 hour day...LOVING that self employed thing...all the bennies and NO effort required.
catch the conclusion on the rewind. Do me right Cap fans...BRING IT HOME!!!
-
I don't see us making it to overtime.. We're flat tonight for sure. :-(
-
Caps aren’t looking great here
-
The Capitals are getting pushed to the limit. The Shirks are a really hard working, well coached team.
-
phuk
PK time
4:00
:(
-
What a dumb fucking penalty Wilson.. >:(
Probably gonna cost us a point.
-
this will extend into OT..
-
extra minutes required..
gonna be a 1:40 4 on 3 to start
-
Take the point and thank them for their time. We sucked tonight.

Caps lose in OT
-
Friday at 7pm. Better wake up before then.
7 more w/o Ovi!
-
Can't win them all. And considering The Caps continously shot themselves in the foot it could have gone worse.
-
got a point, not hateful but could have been better
Caps still have 1st place in the metro
-
They were outskated and outplayed and they refuse to hit anybody unless you count Wilson's high stick. At one point, the Caps led 20-10 in shots. From there to the end, they were outshot 21-8. They've also been falling behind with regularity not to mention stinking it up at home for the most part. Carberry should not be pleased.
-
I rewatched the 10min condensed summary...Caps had the better of the scoring chances for both 1st and 2nd period and virtually nothing in the 3rd.
The sharks goal in the first was off an intercepted Sandin pass then a shot with Sandin sort of screening the shooter...I would like LT to make that stop even though it was a good snipe.
I slept through the 3rd (apparently as did the Caps) and the condensed replay didnt show the Wilson high stick penalty...
Caps still top in the division, all the east and 2nd in the league only to Minnesota. Winnipeg has lost 4 in a row.
Caps did win 7 of last 10, including last 4 in a row, so they not gonna win them all, but need to win vs San Jose, coming off 2 nights rest.
-

I had post game on in the background. Im pretty sure he was pissed about their recent home ice play (starts).

Every goalie we've played lately channels his inner Pat Roy for some reason.. Plus our shooting wasn't exactly sharp. Couple guys had 5' away chances and missed the net all together. Carlson had one, missed. Beagle had an open net, whiffed.
